Would this need to be a separate feature or could you just turn individual bars into % repeats? I mentioned the "count" over here https://beat-note.canny.io/feature-requests/p/add-style-repeat-symbol-for-repeat-bars-measures -- That would be very useful! Not sure how that would work your end?

Ross Farley Thanks for sharing! Given that the layout in Beat Note has to accommodate a variety of scenarios (different devices like phones, tablets, and computer screens), different orientations (portrait and landscape), and different display mechanisms (screen vs PDF), I think it would be simpler if Beat Note itself managed these layout options instead of the composer - allowing the composer to focus on what's most important to them (the music) and allowing the app to do the heavy lifting of determining how to render or engrave it.
As with all features of Beat Note - my goal is to simplify composition for the composer with a focus on intuitiveness and simplicity and education for those who may not be as familiar with music notation to allow it to become educational for them.
I'm excited to see how this feature evolves over time! Thanks for your feedback and continued support!
