What a great question! I think there is a better way that gives you more consistent and controllable results. It takes a bit of work to set up the first time, but the result does copy between files. This has been working for me from Finale 3.x to 2008. The short answer is to make your shapes

This is kinda yet another graphic problem. I am currently on FinMac2008a on OSX10.5.2. I often write a pattern for an instrument, place repeat signs graphically to bracket the pattern, then draw an arrow to the right to indicate infinity loop till cue. This used to work very well back in Fin3.7
