You can use the Next Layout and Previous Layout app control actions. If you only have two active layouts, then either of those actions will toggle to the other layout.

Alright that makes sense.

The only issue with changing layouts is that it's a little slow since you need to tap the "change layout" button in the top menu bar and then choose the layout from the sub-menu. This requires two clicks at the least.

Would it be possible to create a button that you can place anywhere on your layout that acts a direct shortcut to another preselected layout with one press? In this case, that can be a full a screen doc layout. You could also put the same button on your full screen doc layout that links back to the previous layout?

That would retain the problems involved with resizing a document while viewing it, and might add similar problems with the song list because then it would also be resized.

Regarding "a single button to alternate between two preset sizes," you can accomplish that by creating two layouts and switching between them.

I've been reading the forum and I discovered that tapping a document to make it full screen is going to be phased out. My understanding is that it seems to be an inherit source of bugs and the simplest solution is to just use a separate layout with a full screen document viewer.

What about this as an alternative: a combined song list/document viewer item that has a scalable bar between them, much like the main menu system that's already in band helper. The user can drag the slider to have either more of the document or more of the song list. Perhaps there could also be a single button to alternate between two preset sizes.

Great to hear!

Did you get the WIDI master for Bluetooth midi? That can be powered directly from the MIDI Baby. The midi out port on the midi baby supplies power. If you're only using MIDI out from the midi baby to your iPad, you don't even need to the MIDI in part of the WIDI master

Update....I got the Midi Baby 3 and it works flawlessly.   It's very programmable.  I've got it set for the center button to advance to the next midi preset.  The left button to the previous preset and the right button to the next song.   I haven't tried it via bluetooth yet.   It needs power via an adapter or via USB which is whqt I'm doing so it's not cableless no matter what.

Both of those behaviors are true: double-tapping an Apple Pencil 2 should open the annotation toolbar, and opening the annotation toolbar from a placeholder page (no document or lyrics) should create a new, empty document. But there is a glitch because the annotation button currently doesn't appear in the document toolbar for placeholder pages, so currently the only way to access that functionality is with the Apple Pencil 2. I'll restore that button in the next update.

You can set shortcuts in the app, but if you have a Basic account, you can only do it on the set list's Edit Details page. In a Plus or Pro account, you can also do it from the list of set lists.

Ah... Now I see that I can set the favorites in the main web app. The illustration seemed to be showing doing it on the mobile client. Got it to work.

Do you only have limited rights in your account? I also only see the star in the list of set lists for a project I have sufficient rights for.
