Hello fellow Sibelius users. I've been using Sibelius since version 6. I am making a piece with several movements. Everything is set, I start with new key signature and bars and what not but I also want instrument names to be shown full at the start of every movement. So I went to Appearance--->Instrument Names--->At new sections: Full. But for the changes to be noticeable i also need to create a section end at the final bar of the previous movement. So far I only used page breaks. I can't seem to find it anywhere. I remember it was somewhere on the Properties window back in Sibelius 6 and on the inspector window in Sibelius 7 but now the inspector has way fewer options in ver. 8 and it's not there either. Any help by those wiser ?

Section end is in the bars panel of the Inspector. Not exactly intuitive, I know!

Greatly appreciated. Sometimes Sibelius isn't exactly synonymous with intuition but it really makes it up with features and power I guess.
