Personal transpositions for other users

Hi Arlo,

I am an admin and my bandmate is just a user. 
I want to set this user's personal transposition when creating or editing songs in the webpage (without having to copy the text), because, for example, he uses a capo.

You can specify personal lyrics, chords, and notes, but NOT just the transposition (or I'm missing something).

a. Is it possible to do that? And how?
b. Would it be conceivable to integrate this into a future update?

And since I'm at it (even though it's not the main topic of this conversation):
c. For the headings in the song lyrics that can be marked with a #, please also provide an option for coloring them (similar to the chords).

Thanks for your advice.

You don't have to enable the Personal Transpose function; any user with Added Data or All Data editing access can use it. However, you cannot set it for someone else; they'll have to edit the song and set it themselves.

Please start a separate thread for the unrelated heading style request.

Is it possible to include this change in an update – just like I can also specify Personal Lyrics or Chords or Notes?

I could imagine that at least the administrators would welcome this, for example those who lead a Big Band.

I'll put editing another user's Personal Transpose settings on my wish list.

FWIW, I've shown that setting to my own bandmates and they were able to set it themselves easily.
