Choose how a song looks

Set the song up so it's comfortable to read. Nothing here changes what anyone else sees.

Preferences dialog on web, Song view set to Lyrics, song behind showing no chordsFont settings page with Font size and Color

Steps​

  1. Open any song and click Preferences, the sliders icon at the top right.
  2. Under Song view, choose Both, Chords or Lyrics.
  3. Click Chord view mode and choose American (C♯), Numbers (5/3) or Numerals (IV).
  4. Click Font & size. On Font settings, use − and + on Font size, and set Lyrics and Chords from Light to Bold. Under Color, pick a color for Chords and MD notes.
  1. Click Back. Under Display options, turn on what you want:
    • Song details shows the song description above the sections.
    • Compact view collapses repeated sections.
    • 2-column layout puts sections side by side when there's room.
  2. Close the dialog. Changes already show in the song.

Good to know​

  • These settings are yours and apply to every song you open, not only this one.
  • Font size runs from 10 px to 36 px.
  • 2-column layout only splits the song when the page is wide enough. While autoscroll is on, the song reads in one column.
  • Numbers and Numerals count from the song's original key, so they read the same whatever key the team plays it in.
