I cannot make Da Doppia Coda jump to Varied Coda. [SOLVED]
Hi
I'm having trouble setting two Codas and their repeats properly to a pop song.
All my jumps and repeats work fine but I cannot make Da Doppia Coda jump to Varied Coda. (I believe the Varied Coda is the one to be used with Da Doppia Coda. Or I'm wrong?
Here's the arrangement of my song:
bar 1 ~ 5: INTRO
bar 6 ~ 20: VERSE
bar 21 ~ 32: CHORUS
bar 33 ~ 39: BRIDGE
bar 40 ~ 41: END
Here are the locations of all my jumps and repeats:
BAR 6 [Segno]
BAR 21 [Doppio Segno]
BAR 28 [Da Doppia Coda]
BAR 30 [To Coda]
BAR 32 [D.S. al Coda]
BAR 33 [Coda]
BAR 39 [D.D.S al Doppia Coda]
BAR 40 [Varied Coda]
This is how I want it to be played:
I play from bar 1 to bar 32;
Bar 32 plays [D.S. al Coda] then jumps to bar 6 then play until bar 30;
bar 30 plays [To Coda] then jumps to bar 33 then play until bar 39;
bar 39 plays [D.D.S. al Doppia Coda] then jumps to bar 21 then... when I plays bar 28, where there is [Da Doppia Coda] it doesn't jump to bar 40 where there is the [Varied Coda].
What am I doing wrong?
How can I make it work?

It is about the naming of the labels and jumps.
1) The "D.D.S. al Coda" must be "Continue at: codac" (or similar, different from "codab").
2) The "Da Doppla Coda" must have the label of the "Play until" from the "D.D.S. al Coda", i.e. "varcoda".
3) The marker "varied coda" of measure 40 must have "codac" (or similar, as chosen in 1)).

It's the first time I'm digging into the properties. Thank you for chiming in!
Look at the Properties of each Segno, D.S., To Coda, and Coda in this version. That's how.
Also look at the Measure Properties of measure 41. I changed it to play 3 times, as your text says.

Thank you so much. You're a legend!
Tell me, how did you make the OUTRO repeat 3 times? I'm clicking everywhere I can think of and I can't figure what you did. :)

Right-click on the measure with the end-repeat sign. From the context menu that appears, click on Measure properties.... In measures with end-repeats, there is an additional field not available in other measures: Play count. In an ordinary repeat, the value is 2. In yours, you'll see that I increased it to 3.
