Ok, sorry about that. My comment was related to the website for BandH yes.  :D

Note that makophin is asking about the app and Ulfonze is asking about the website. Auto-correct works differently in the app versus the website. Also, we are in the Set List Maker forum but Set List Maker doesn't have a web interface; BandHelper does.

Yes, lyrics highlighting is now triggered by a long press rather than a double-tap.

I don't think you need any new features to do what you're describing. You would just need to trigger the functions you want on the lead device using an app control action (rather than clicking the buttons directly) and configure the following device to respond to the same app control actions.

This approach is more flexible than what you're envisioning because you can trigger multiple functions with one action, or trigger different functions on the lead and following device with the same action. For example, you might want to start auto-scrolling on both devices but only start a recording on one device.

Quote from: arlo on May 16, 2024, 08:45:57 PMWhen autocomplete text appears, you can click the remainder of the text to accept it.
I thought I tried that, Arlo, but I'll try again

I'm an old DOS/UNIX/PC guy, and still a bit of a Luddite using the iPad - I normally use a keyboard and mouse when I'm entering data.  If that doesn't work, I'll try touching the text.

Thanks!

I think I understand. Perhaps I might make a feature request then for a future version. My envisioned use case is the following:

Build a wedge cabinet that looks like a stage monitor - containing the Mac and its associated video monitor.

Remove the large obtrusive iPad from my mic stand, and replace it with an iPhone.

The iPhone would be used as a 'remote' to drive the Mac app in the wedge monitor downstage.

This would lead to a cleaner stage sightline, and reduce the impression of 'oh gawd - that stupid musician is just reading the lyrics off that big ol' iPad - plus, with the iPad there, obscuring his guitar, I can't even tell if he's really playing, or that's just the backing track he's air guitaring to'.

So with that scenario as preface, here is the feature request: provide an option to Enable the buttons on the Set List Only layout to send events via Live Sharing to a slave app.

Repertoire Help / Highlight Lyrics AutoScroll?
Last post by Dustin - May 17, 2024, 12:06:17 PM
I followed the video so I could set it up in Karaoke style. I start the recording and when I double-tap the left side of the lyrics, my setlist pops back into view instead of highlighting.

Is there a setting that changed the behavior or am I missing something?

I have the same problem.

If I click the suggested text that appears, it will not transfer it to the text box. It disappears and just leaves the characters I have actually typed. To be able to use the type-ahead function I must do a 'down arrow' and ENTER to catch it into the  text box.

Applies to Windows 10 with either Edge or Chrome.

QuoteSelecting a setlist seems a little funny - it seems to work if I select a setlist from the dropdown in the header of the layout (on the iPhone master), but that presents a rather limited list of setlists from which to choose. It does not seem to work if I try from Repertoire>Setlists>* on the iPhone master.

That's how it is meant to work. It will follow set list changes if you stay in the set list view and use the title shortcuts. It will not follow set list changes if you leave the set list view. You can control which set lists appear in the title shortcuts:

QuoteWhat I can't seem to get working is kicking off (e.g.) Automation on the Mac slave, by hitting the Automation button on the iPhone master. Other things I would like to invoke on the iPhone master, and have the Mac slave follow include Select MIDI Preset, Start/Stop Tempo, and Play Recording. I was hopeful this might have been included in 'Follow Layout Gestures' - but maybe not? Is this available? Am I doing something wrong?

Yes, if you start those functions with a gesture on the lead device, then they will be triggered on the following device. Clicking the automation or MIDI buttons is not the same as using a gesture to trigger those functions. A layout gesture is something like Song Selection, Two-Fingered Tap, etc., which you would set up on the Settings > App Control page.
