I am doing some charts for a jazz singer, and she wishes me to place the symbol for "play the same thing in this measure that you played in the last measure" symbol (sorry I don't know its name; it looks like a "divided by" sign) above certain measures in place of a chord. It is not available except in a staff style. I don't know why she feels the need to have it, but she does. I have created it as an expression, but it doesn't look very good, especially since it doesn't have the jazz font style. I suppose I could put another staff above it and blank out everything except that symbol, but it seems like a lot of work considering that she asked for this *after* I had done the whole chart.
Any suggestions?
Can't you create it using the Jazz Font?
On the PC, the symbol in slot 212 and can be accessed on the PC by holding down the ALT key while typing 0212 on the numeric keypad. I don't know what the process would be for doing that on a Mac.
But the character exists in the Jazz font, so if you build your expression in that font it will look just like you want it to.
Or you could simply copy the music to that measure and then apply the staff style.
