Show Chords with push/rest chars
The push character is the caret symbol (^). So a C chord with a push is displayed as
^C. The rest character is a
period (.), so
C. shows a C chord with a rest.
If you prefer not to see these characters displayed, then set this to false. These characters won't show up on the
printout regardless of this setting.
Show Rests in color
If checked, pushes are displayed in GREEN, and rests are displayed in RED. This only applies to the Chordsheet
(not the notation).
Allow any Rests
You can disable the rests feature. You might want to do this if you've got a song with a lot of rests in it, and are then
having difficulty recording a melody because you don't hear the drums providing the beat (due to the drums resting).
If so, you can temporarily disable the rests so that you can record and listen to the drums.
Allow any Pushes
If for some reason you don't want a style or a song to have pushes, you can uncheck this box.
Allow Style Pushes
If for some reason you don't want a style to have pushes, you can uncheck this box.
Chord Display Type
This box allows for non-standard display of chords on the Chordsheet area. The options here allow for Normal
(standard notation), Roman Numeral notation, Nashville notation, Solfeggio notation and Fixed Do notation.
When a new notation mode is selected a message will report the change on the main screen. Click anywhere in the
message box to close it.
