The Convert to ChordPro function only works with chord names, so you would need to manually put brackets around the "N.C." and position it within your lyrics.

Yes, sure.

I just tried it with the lyrics of "The Way You Make Me Feel" by Michael Jackson.

Screenshot 1: After pasting the lyrics from UG
Screenshot 2: Press the convert ChordPro button (remove brackets)
Screenshot 3: Press the convert ChordPro button again

Everything gets written correctly, but not the line with "N.C." as a chord.

Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot!



Here are the lyrics if you want to try it out yourself:

[Verse 1]
E            D/E           E          D/E
  Hey pretty baby with the high heels on
E             D/E             E      D/E
  You give me fever like I've never, ever known
E               D/E        E     D/E
  You're just a product of loveliness
E            D/E            E          D/E
  I like the groove of your walk, your talk, your dress
A             G/A        A      G/A
  I feel your fever from miles around
A               G/A      A             B
  I'll pick you up in my car and we'll paint the town
E              D/E      E       D/E
  Just kiss me baby and tell me twice
E                 D/E     E
  That you're the one for me
 
 
[Chorus]
N.C.                E                 D/E     E
The way you make me feel (the way you make me feel)
           D/E     E              D/E     E
You really turn me on (you really turn me on)
             D/E       E                  D/E       E
You knock me off of my feet (you knock me off of my feet)
          D/E      E               D/E      E      D/E
My lonely days are gone (my lonely days are gone)

Can you show an example of the problem? Anything in square brackets should be positioned above the lyrics the same way, regardless of whether it's a chord name or not.

Repertoire Help / Accept "N.C." as a chord in Ch...

Hi Arlo

I have a question regarding ChordPro imports.

Quite a few songs on Ultimate Guitar use [N.C.] ("No Chord") in sections where no chord should be played. When I import those songs into BandHelper, lines containing [N.C.] often don't seem to be recognized as valid ChordPro lines, so the formatting gets messed up.

Is there a recommended way to handle [N.C.] in BandHelper, or could BandHelper treat it as a valid chord during the import process?

Thanks a lot as always,
Chris

Can you show me what you're talking about? It's not common to have so many app control actions that you need to import them into Excel to look at them.

It should be the same as applying a text color: select the text, click the Text Styles button, select a style. What are you seeing?

On the website, at the moment, you have to click 4 times(!) to assign a text style.

Please, please change it to work like, for example, changing the font color (so 2 clicks).

Thanks a lot

No, I want a downloadable table of the actions (in my language), so I can i.e. make in Excel some arrangements.

BandHelper doesn't do anything with the labels inside environment directives. You want those to be added to the lyrics text? I can put that on my wish list.

I don't know why the chorus text isn't indenting. That's working when I try it. Can you try clearing your browser cache? What platform and web browser are you using? Does it indent in the mobile apps?
