To change the forward (ending) horizontal repeat lines in the region, do 
something like this. "-100" in the example would move the bracket handle 
100 EPVUs to the left of the right barline.

---
local region = finenv.Region()
if region:IsEmpty() then return end
for measure = region.StartMeasure, region.EndMeasure do
     local r = finale.FCEndingRepeat()
     if r:Load(measure) then
         r.HorizontalRightBracketPosition = -100
         r:Save()
     end
end

To instead change the backward horizontal repeat lines in the region, do 
something like this. "100" in the example would move the bracket handle 
100 EPVUs to the right of the left barline.

local region = finenv.Region()
if region:IsEmpty() then return end
for measure = region.StartMeasure, region.EndMeasure do
     local r = finale.FCBackwardRepeat()
     if r:Load(measure) then
         r.LeftBracketPosition = 100
         r:Save()
     end
end
