Settings
Settings holds the choices that change how songs and Live Mode behave. Each tab has Reset to Defaults in the menu (the three dots) at the top right, and every setting follows you to your other devices.
Song
| Setting | Choices | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Transpose Mode | Capo (default), Unrestricted | Capo transposes up only, as a capo fret, for guitar and other fretted instruments. Unrestricted transposes up or down by half steps, for instruments like keyboards. See Keys, capo and transposing. |
| Keep Screen Awake | On (default), off | Keeps your screen on while you're viewing a song or in Live Mode. Turned off, your device sleeps as it normally would. |
Live
| Setting | Choices | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Scroll Direction | Horizontal (default), Vertical | Horizontal lays charts out in columns and moves left to right, one column at a time. Vertical scrolls charts in one continuous flow from top to bottom, and is the layout that has autoscroll. See Live Mode. |
Other settings
Most of how charts look is in Appearance. A few settings are kept where you use them rather than here:
- Chord names, simplified chords, font size and which parts of a chart are shown, from the Display card on a song page.
- The autoscroll speed, from the Display card.
- How songs are sorted, from Songs.
- The format you last downloaded in.
- Your annotation stamps, from Customize stamps in the annotation tools.
- Which tags are hidden, from the Tags tab in Library.
