One of the most common things I do is insert and delete bars. Please add "Insert Bar(s)..." and "Delete Bar(s)..." to right-click menu. If you need space there I would recommend removing things like "Song Settings...", "Display Options..." and "Preferences..." as these do not seem to be related very closely contextually to a chord sheet cell.

A HUGE +1 to this!!!

I right-click cells all the time expecting to add or delete bars at that point... and then always think... "Oh, yeah, that's not here... another menu..."

J3 - thanks for bringing this up...

+1 to adding add insert bar and delete bars to right click menu.

+1 to reorganizing right click menu to remove all commands not directly related to cell activities.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
