I am new to version 7 and the "ribbon", but having troubles simply adding a symbol.

From Notations > Symbols I expand the "symbols" menu by clicking the tiny arrow. A separate window opens with easily-seen symbols. I click on one, choose "okay", and *nothing happens*.

Alternately, if I type "Z" and choose a symbol, it appears on my music. But I don't like this menu: it is unbearably long and takes forever to scroll through to find what I want. It is much easier to scroll through symbols from the Ribbon-expanded-menu.

Hence: How to I add a symbol from the Ribbon-expanded-menu?
