Lyric highlighting

OK guys, I'm convinced. I will just revert the change I made and I will also revert it in ST3 in the next update. Both ST3 and ST4 will behave exactly as before.

MarkGuitar I think we have a much bigger problem with the audio engine , I am finding it very unstable , with audio dropouts and just now a multitrack song won’t open up the audio segment editor, my iPad is just generating a waveform message that’s stuck on the screen , it looks as though stereo songs load in but multitracks don’t, probably because it doesn’t know which track to use to form a waveform, just guessing, Peter must be pulling his hair out,
I won’t report any more stuff till the audio is sorted.
But I like a lot of the interface improvements we just need to make the overall interface user friendly simple yet powerful It’s going to be tough beating ST3 but I’m sure if we all pitch in some way we will end up with great bit of gear as long as Peter doesn’t go bonkers in the process.

As someone who plays with a live band using backing tracks occasionally for some songs I would like a 3rd option for the scroll positing ie: top, 1/3 or centred. If not playing to a click there’s a chance to get a little ahead or behind the scroll. I want to be able to see a bit of the lyrics above the scroll position in case we get behind but it’s more likely that you end up ahead of the scroll so I’d like to see more under the current position therefore the 1/3 option would be a good option. Also I would like it to snap to the chosen position even if you only insert a time code at the beginning of each paragraph. I currently have the centre lyric position selected and if I have a time code for each line the current line is in the centre of the screen but if I put the time code at the beginning of each paragraph it snaps to the top.

Hey Neil. I am using a similar setup and it works fine for me. See screenshot

I am using the latest beta (1832) and running on an iPad Pro 18.6.2

I have the Lyrics set to Centred and the auto scroll position also set to Centre. And I have my time code marker on the title of each section in the lyric edito, see screenshot for an example.

So maybe some other settings or config on your device? What are you using?

BTW, I agree, 1/3 screen position would be even better, some time in the future maybe.

MarkGuitar thanks for the reply, what i have figured out is that the last line of the paragraph is what ends snaps to the centre of the screen, so if it’s only 2 lines, it’s not at the top. Can you think of some setting that would cause that?

peter Understand, so you would like to get back the behaviour of ST3 before the change to not scroll over the end of the lyrics, right?

yes please

I def vote for ST3 behavior. One of the things i like about it is not needing to put my ipad high to hide my tummy, guitar (from the crowd - I really not like when musicians block their view with a tablet or worse, laptop right in front of them) etc. I keep it low and my eye when i need to ''remember a line'' on need to look quick on the top of the ipad.

that, an the fact that if i need to raise the fader on a track towards the end of the song (happens) i will not where i am in the lyrics if me old brain suddenly forgets.

If i need to add 30 lines ill do it, but why break something that works well?

center line can have that behavior, no?

Ok obviously I didn’t see the new version, can report it is back to normal for the lyrics thank you Peter 🙏
