Default collapse multiple measures

The user guide says :

Throughout a score, wherever there are two or more measures with only rests for all of the staves, you can specify whether each measure will be displayed with a whole measure rest, or whether all measures are collapsed into a multiple measure rest. The following is an example of a two-measure rest:

To display multiple measure rests:
In the Format menu, turn on the check mark for Collapse Multiple Measure Rests.
-- OR --
Type "qcmr" for Quick Collapse Multiple Rests.
To display each measure with its own whole measure rest:
Turn off the check mark for Collapse Multiple Measure Rests in the Format menu.

I created a part with a 2-measure collapsed rest at the beginning. Now it has switched to 2 consecutive measures with whole rest in each. How can I get it back to the 2-measure rest notation in one measure?
There is NO Collapse Multiple Measure Rests item in the Format menu. Am I looking in the wrong place? I appreciate any help.
