Can some one explain how to do that please.

I think largely that they are referring to use a style that has a swing / shuffle feel. I agree, it's not explained very well.
IIRC, BIAB internally only fully supports 3/4 and 4/4 time signatures.

I experimented and only got reasonable results with 6/8 styles with a much lower tempo.

Search your Style Picker for 6/8 styles and demo ones with a slow tempo. Hope this helps.
