Secret trick with the editor to use 4 and more time bars...

Hello dear friends.

I would like to share with you a secret trick that I discovered with the editor of iRp.
For more than 3rd time bars, the player understand the empty time sign as the following bar to jump in conjonction with D.C. at 3rd.
(The 4-5-6-7 indications are only for clarity but this is not what the player understand.

See the following example:

Enjoy

Great tip! And It works with D.S. al 3rd, etc., too, I see. And both work in iOS, too. iRP's Playback can't be responding to the actual bracket numbers above 3, I guess, but it does appear that it treats every initially unnumbered ending bracket as a "Next" bracket, which is just as good.
I just now used it all the way to a bracket no. 9 to make a backing track for a well-known Disney film toon. Thanks!

EDIT: An odd quirk: This trick with D.S. does not work if you have used an ordinary repeat section with ordinary 1 & 2 numbered repeat brackets previously in the song. Take either one out and the other works fine, but not both in the same song. Go figure.
