Last post by arlo - May 30, 2025, 07:40:12 AMIs Settings > General > Paste Text Formatting turned on? If the links still don't carry over with that on, then you will have to add the links to your text within BandHelper.

Last post by arlo - May 30, 2025, 07:38:15 AMYou might be able to scroll your multi-song PDF to the correct page, zoom it a little bit and then save the zoom level. But I recommend splitting your documents into separate songs. This will make it much easier to add and update your documents because you will be able to update one song without affecting all the other songs.

Other Help / Song list on left disappears
Last post by buggiedingdong - May 29, 2025, 11:36:29 AMI installed setlistmaker on my new ipad and now when I click on a song in the set, the song list on the left disappears. What setting do I need to change to keep the setlist from disappearing?

Repertoire Help / Re: How to start/stop recordin...
Last post by bjm - May 29, 2025, 10:22:58 AMSimilar to the other users on this thread, I use in-app recording, in my case during rehearsals to capture audio so that we have reference material for new band members and subs as well as marketing materials.
The functionality works as advertised, but my minor nit that the screen controls to arm and start recording are really small. I see no way to make those particular controls larger tap targets for my touchscreen and it becomes tedious to start and stop while wearing a guitar. I must tell the band to "hang on a sec while I start recording", which kinda harshes the flow when the band just spontaneously starts into something...you know how artists can be sometimes!
So, I seek either 1) way to make the tap targets for those controls larger on the tablet, OR 2) a way to do it from a pedal.
Related is that I want to automatically accept the proposed filename/timestamp and move on, I don't want to have to accept it explicitly as this involves more tedious interaction. Unfortunately, after stopping the recording capture, (on the Mac version of the app) the filename pop-up doesn't appear to have focus on the "save" button, so I can't just hit enter and move on.
Is there some clever way to address these issues that I have overlooked?
Thank you.

Repertoire Help / Pasting formatted text into No...
Last post by nolaschott - May 29, 2025, 08:00:02 AMHi there,
Is there a way to retain hyperlinks in the Notes section if I am pasting from a separate source? For example, I have copied a block of text that includes hyperlinked text but when I currently paste it in, it doesn't keep the links. Is there a way to do that? Thanks!

Repertoire Help / Re: Issue with Live Sharing dr...
Last post by davelson - May 29, 2025, 05:06:05 AMI still get the same issue as 1a above.... Seems a random occurrence, but most often following a break (when I turn off BH on both iPads for 30mins to save battery) and then try to reconnect them... These are dedicated band iPads not that old, and never had this issue in past few years of using them.

Last post by omygind - May 29, 2025, 04:12:09 AMHi Arlo,
In addition.. I have a couple of issues as well with live connection (follow events).
I have 2 iPads and 1 iPhone:
iPad-1 = IOS 16.7.11
iPad-2 = IOS 18.5
iPhone = IOS 18.5
All devices has:
Use New Peer Connection = ON
Use Nes Peer Data = OFF
1a. Follow iPad-2 events on iPad-1 AND follow iPad-1 events on iPad-2.
Most often iPad-2 gets an error prompt saying something like 'Connection refused by host'.
iPad-1 does not have any issues.
After several attempts (I con't figure out why or how) the connection succeeds and everything works as expected.
1b. Follow iPad-2 events on iPhone AND follow iPhone events on iPad-2.
No issues and no error prompts :-)
2. When connected switch off (going into sleep mode) one of the devices and turn on again (wake up):
2a. Turn off and on iPhone: most often no issue
2b. Turn off and on iPad-2: the prompts with 'trying to reconnect' comes up and shows in log, but on iPad-2 the prompt doesn't go away and only option is to press cancel.
In this case iPhone continues to follow iPad-2 events but iPad-2 does not follow iPhone events - however the Live Share Status still shows both devices on each screen (and Log did say connected on both devices !?!)

Repertoire Help / Multi Song PDF - Feature Reque...
Last post by Schulti - May 28, 2025, 12:27:44 PMHey 
Awesome app. I am a long time user and i wonder if this is possible:
I put all my songs for each band together in one word file. Each song is on one page. I create an pdf of it.
No when i want to get these songs into bandhelper i need to seperate them each time something changes in a song ...
It would be awesome if i can upload the whole pdf with all songs. Then attach this pdf to all songs in BH but save a specific page that the viewer will start when opening the song. That would be soooo great
Thanks and have a nice day!

Repertoire Help / Re: Hide shared chords when pe...
Last post by arlo - May 26, 2025, 03:33:01 PMThere's no intentional app function to suppress the display of the shared chords when the personal chords is empty. Putting a small amount of text into the personal chords field, like the dash as you described, should work. Another option is to hide the chords field on songs where you don't want to see it; you can do that by clicking the chords/lyrics divider, clicking the Hide Chords Field button in the document toolbar, or triggering the Hide Chords Field app control action. But you would have to do that manually every time you want to hide or show it.
