Title: Displaying different documents per band member
Post by: megahertz on October 09, 2021, 04:53:31 PM
Sorry in advance if this has been addressed elsewhere. Couldn't search it up.

Say I have four band members... guitar bass drums keys. Each band member wants to look at a personalized lead sheet for each song. Here's what I've done but I wonder if there's an easier way.

- Create and upload the personalized documents for each band member. Four in this case.
- Check only one box in the "users" selection for each document. For example, guitar checked, bass drums and keys unchecked.
- Put all the documents in the documents list for the song (before the lyrics, it seems).
- Put a document viewer in the layout.

The document viewer will show the first document that is active for the user.

I feel like I might be missing something since this is such a basic feature and how I've done it feels awkward. Any advice much appreciated.

That's one way to do it and probably the best for your situation. Other options are under "How can I set up my account so each band member sees his or her own document for each song" in the FAQ:
