Repertoire Help / Re: Set names in layouts?

Last post by arlo - October 21, 2025, 09:35:57 AM

Resizing the pause details text is on my wish list and I'll add a vote for you. In the meantime, you could just set up some songs to use as pauses and put the text into the Lyrics field.

Repertoire Help / Re: Set names in layouts?

Last post by thoseguys - October 21, 2025, 09:27:51 AM

You can go to Repertoire > Pause Names, edit a pause name and add more text to the Details field. That will display when you get to a pause in the set list.

Thanks for the tip! I hadn't realized I could do that. Is there any way to increase the font size of the details similar to the way you can increase the lyrics font size? This is a really helpful feature but the text is just a little too small to be usable for my particular (unconventional) use case.

This is a great addition Arlo! Great work as always.

Is the other part of this request (queue next song) in the works at all?

That would be the one feature that would make the app absolutely perfect in my opinion! That combined with the chat would be so powerful.

This is on my wish list and I'll add a vote for you.

P.S. I recommend changing your forum username to something other than your email address since your username is displayed publicly.

Repertoire Help / Re: Feature Request: Chat feat...

As a way to help communicate information quickly to musicians on stage, what if Bandhelper had asimple chat features that would work between devices connected during live sharing.

You can now send chat messages through Live Sharing. You can predefine messages like "More lead vocal in monitor" or "Five minutes left" on the Repertoire > Chat Messages page. Then you can send these messages from the Chat Message Button or Multiple Chat Message Buttons layout items, or the Send Chat Message 1-10 app control actions.

Following devices will display the messages in a popup, or in the Chat field if that's included in the layout, and can optionally read the messages aloud if Settings > Live Sharing > Speak Chat Messages is on. You can route the speech to a particular audio channel from Settings > Audio & MIDI > Speech Output Channel.

Repertoire Help / OSC Remote control from Remote...

Last post by damianjosephadams@gmail.c - October 20, 2025, 10:15:34 AM

would it be possible to implement an OSC Receive and expose the App controls and PC Changes.
Eg
//Bandhelper/Play
//Bandhelper/Next
//Bandhelper/Previous
//Bandhelper/PC/1.5.30
Etc
So i can control bandhelper from a remote OSC App
I'm doing this from Midi but the App is really OSC Based so Im having to translate between OSC and Midi Commands.

Stage Plots Help / Performer names are invisible

Last post by jimm - October 19, 2025, 06:37:11 AM

I wanted to update the band member names on our stage plot. The band member labels are invisible! When I click on them, they are highlighted and I can click on the gear icon to get the popup dialog and edit the names, but they don't appear in the browser or when exported to PDF.

I tried three different browsers: Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. The same thing happens in all three browsers.

The names do appear on my iPad running 18.6.2, my Mac running 15.6.1, and my Android running v16. I've made the changes and exported to PDF on my iPad which is of course a perfectly acceptable workaround.

Repertoire Help / Re: Page scrolling

Last post by arlo - October 15, 2025, 04:00:59 PM

No, you can't scroll through pages horizontally.

You can scroll through complete pages by opening the document toolbar and clicking the Fit To Height button, and using the up/down hotspots or the Previous/Next Page app control actions to change pages.

Repertoire Help / Page scrolling

Last post by brunonunes.teclas - October 15, 2025, 01:42:05 PM

Hey, Arlo!

Is there a way for me to cycle through a document's pages horizontally rather than vertically?
And is there an option for me to display/cycle a document in a single page fashion rather than a continuos page?

I'm having a hard time getting used to scrolling documents vertically...

Excellent app, by the way!
