Can you reverse a few bars of notes?

What I would want to do is copy lets say 4 bars of a passage and paste it into another 4 bars and take those new 4 bars and reverse the notes.

Example

Punch in a ascending C Major Scale/copy it/paste it and reverse it instead of having to punch in the descending parts.

Interesting. Wanted to ask about this.
Btw, "Retrograde Pitches and Rhythms" works incorrectly. It seems that it should make "Retrograde Pitches" + "Retrograde Rhythms", but it breaks beaming by connecting all notes, even with previous. And clicking just "Retrograde" executes that incorrectly working "Retrograde Pitches and Rhythms".
