How to create a bi-weekly Master with an alternating Differential or Incremental?

The Legacy Schedule is the only location where you can create a job that takes advantage of a Master/Incremental/Differential that is set every two weeks. You can use this to set a Master to occur ever two weeks, and then set the child job to run on the days where the Master does not run.

Example: Master every other Sunday. One on the 8th, and the 22nd. The Incremental run Monday - Friday, but there is no job on the 15th and 29th. You can drag and drop an Incremental onto Sunday the 15th and set it for a recurrence of Weekly, choose "Every two weeks" on Sunday.

The resulting schedule will look like this...
