2 bar repeats in sib 7

[OliverBlackman]

hi in sibelius 7 im struggling to get the 2 bar repeat sign on the bar line. It will happily sit in the bars either sign but for some reason won't go on the bar line. Also its missing the number "2" above it. Am i doing something wrong?

In Sib 6 its on the editing keypad thing, 5th tab (Jazz articulations), alongside the single and four bar repeat signs. (the button looks like '//.) Just select the first of your 2 bars and hit the button. I think you may be using the "create -> symbol" from the menu bar to try to insert it, which just doesn't work. (or at least not for me)
