You can't use the document button to close a document. You can open the document toolbar and leave it open and use the X button to close it, but that's pretty small. If you don't like the double-tap, you can assign the Hide Document Viewer action to the Two-Fingered Tap trigger. I wouldn't use the Song Selection trigger because you said you only occasionally wanted to view the lyrics.

You can remove an app control action by selecting it and then deselecting any triggers that are selected for it.

I tried adding an app control action to open/close a full screen document and that didn't work, and it changed the behavior of the document.  There is no option to remove the action I added. Is it not possible to remove it?

There is no MIDI button in the top toolbar and there doesn't seem to be an option to add it.  The MIDI button I have on the set list/song screen is not grayed out but does nothing when you tap it. Does not even change color like it does on the iPad when the MIDI presets work.

Thanks Arlo.  I was able to get that to work, but is there any way to change the document button or any button so it's a toggle for opening and closing the document?  Trying to avoid the double tap to get it to go away.

Please click the MIDI button in the top toolbar. Is the Widi listed under Connected Ports? Are your outgoing MIDI messages shown in the Activity Log?

I have Band Helper all set up and working on a iPad. However, the person using the keyboard has an Android tablet and while the WIDI Master software says "connected", the MIDI presets do not work on the Android.  They work perfectly on the iPad.

I found a thread from 2022 where Arlo says that WIDI Master has compatibility issues with Androids, but the app is offered for Android so I don't get it. It's been 3 years so perhaps that has changed?

Any help is appreciated.

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.

To show the lyrics on top those other buttons and fields only when clicking the document button, you can edit the layout details and change Layering to Document Viewer On Top.

Alternatively, you can edit the Layout Document Viewer and size it shorter to make room for the notes, then edit the Layout Buttons and Fields and place the notes field and the other buttons and fields under or beside the document viewer rather than on top of it. Then the lyrics will always be visible but will take less space and won't be partially covered by other things.
