Thanks for your reply. It took me a few minutes to work out what the Inspector was as I don't normally use that but now I have, yes I can do what I want in that. Still don't know why I don't get the dialogue box it says I should by right clicking but at least I can now do what I need to do via your suggestion …. thanks again..

Where on earth do you see something about right click in the handbook page you've been directed to?
Right click was the was this was done in MuseScore 2.

Do it via inspector, like described in the above mentioned handbook page, no right click there

thanks …. yes this works
To be clear, in MuseScore 2 you indeed needed to right click and have a dialog pop up and block you from doing anything else until done, and the documentation for MuseScore 2 described how that worked. For MuseScore 3, these problems are solve,d now you can do everything more easily from the Inspector, and the documentation for MuseScore 3 describes this. So, use the MuseScore 2 documentation when using MuseScore 2, use the MuseScore 3 documentation when using MuseScore 3. It's still fairly new so not all the documentation is updated, but it's all being worked on.
