Repertoire Help / jpeg media insertion color
Last post by cheny - February 16, 2026, 07:08:27 AM
hi,
LOVE band helper.
I started using Arlo's advise and create jpegs in dorico and inserting them in the lyrics fields.
i operate band helper in dark mode so every jpeg i put in inverts to white on black and it gets pixeled a bit.
Can i flip just the photos back to black on white?

Schedule Help / Re: Default event info

An interface like BandMule for entering unavailable dates is on my wish list. But to clarify, you can already enter unavailable dates now, and this would only add another, simplified interface option to access the same functionality.

In an unavailable event, the Users field should be set to only the user that is unavailable. Then you won't see other users' unavailable events in the shortcuts.

If I may add something: Yes in theory it makes sense to use the 1- or 2-column setting, but it probably would also good to be able to overwrite that setting within the PDF-print-menu. As I don't use the 2-column setting a lot, but only come across it while printing the whole set incl. lyrics, it might be worth it having the option to print the lyrics in 2 columns.

Quote from: Zionplayer on March 08, 2020, 07:08:44 PMI would like to +1 this type request. My band currently uses BandMule for availability (BH for everything else), basically because it is so simple. You run the app, click once on the day for available, click again for not available.  My guys need that simplicity.

Was thinking with default settings maybe I could get there on BH and drop the other program - If it could default to the user logged in, as well as name, category, dates and times.

For an event I don't mind filling out the fields, but for just free/busy this 'defaults' idea would be great. Thanks for considering!

I would also love to see a format similar to that of Band Mule for availability. A couple members in my band are either in other bands or have jobs that sometimes take them out of town. It would be really nice if they could just go to the "availability calendar" and mark themselves unavailable on a given date in a simple click.

Do you see this as a possibility? I love every feature of BH and would love to just have everything I need in the one app

I can put this on my wish list. It would probably make sense to use the 1-column or 2-column setting from the song edit page so you can have a mixture of 1-column and 2-column songs.

Hi, whenever we go to share songs from a set list, and click the Download button to generate the PDF, is it possible to get the output in 2 columns? Basically, if the lyrics are too long, to automatically display in 2 columns, before inserting a new page. (Auto-Fit is not feasible due to small font size). The current output is too many pages with a lot of empty space on the right of the page. Since it is possible to present the header in 2 columns, I thought it would be possible for the lyrics fields as well.

*ps.: we use both bracketed chords and lyrics in the Lyrics fields.

Last post by arlo - February 11, 2026, 01:33:16 PM
Sorry, there isn't a single list of every icon in the app. For buttons in toolbars, and setting names on the Settings pages, you can long-press for in-app help, but for the buttons in the main area of the layouts, long-press is reserved for other functions.

That said, you can generally just click a layout button to see what it does, or if it's always faded because you haven't set up the associated functionality, you can edit your layout and remove it.

"big circle with 5 little circles inside"

That sends MIDI data if set up for a song.

"pushpin"

That shows the contents of the Notes field if populated for a song.

Last post by skeeternash - February 11, 2026, 12:19:20 PM
Hello, I've searched everywhere for a definitive list of the buttons icons and what they do. I get the Lyrics, Documents, Tempo, Recording, Previous/Next song, and a couple of others; but for the life of me, I don't know what the 'big circle with 5 little circles inside' button does. Or the pushpin? A nice, definitive list (with the icons illustrated) would be very helpful. Thanks!
