Manual scroll lyrics on all devices?

Jega777

Hi Peter, I wondered if it is possible to add, in a future update, the ability to manually scroll the lyrics (while the track is not playing) on slave devices from the master (host) device.
At present the lyrics scroll when a track is playing seamlessly (and that’s awesome) on all slave devices as well as the master host device, when joined in a session, but if you do a song acoustically or with a live band and manually scroll the lyrics then the scrolling is only visible on the host device and the slave devices remain at the start of the song.
I have to use OnSong to do this feature at present, but I would much prefer to have one database of songs and my preferred format would definitely be Stage Traxx 3 if this was a feature you could activate in the near future?
So please if it is possible to add this feature I would appreciate you considering it.
Many thanks Jeff.

As each client can have different font and screen sizes. A scroll command from the host would look different on each device. Therefore the only reliable way to scroll on different devices is using timecoded scrolling.

peter ok that’s a shame, my pads are usually set up equal so it would probably work for me, but I understand in the grand scheme of things it would limit the users and therefore I completely understand it is not a feature you can add, appreciate you taking the time to listen and respond though and many thanks for the work you continue to do for us.

Unfortunately the visible lyrics area has different dimensions in client view compared to the normal player view on the same iPad. So even the absolutely same device would not scroll in sync.
