Good catch by Matt about the Mac version 80. I found this thread that says it's not available in the Mac 2013 version:

I notice that the tutorial in the support page doesn't mention that this is a Windows-only feature....maybe it should to avoid confusion???

How to use repeats, 1st/2nd endings, and DS/DC al codas in Band-in-a-Box

Thanks, Ed. Yes, I wish that BIAB had have mentioned that Repeats/2nd/3rd Endings are a Windows only feature. Would have saved me a couple of hours of bumbling around trying to find it in the Mac version of 2014 BIAB.

Probably would have saved you a little frustration, too, because you probably didn't understand why I wasn't "getting it" . . .

Thanks for trying to give me a hand.

Good to know. It took me some time to discover that part markers are disabled using repeats and endings. But I don't understand your remark as "concise as possible". If you have e.g., 1st and 2nd endings with 1,2 or 3 bars, reading becomes much easier if e.g., a repeated 2nd second section starts at a new line, rather then somewhere along the stave. No offence but I don't like this intended bahavior.
