As far as I can see the print options window behind the new interface is the same as before. I can't seem to get a fake sheet print out showing tags and number of times to be repeated. Using the left hand menu choose Lead Sheet. Tick lead sheet box. tick print icon. Print options then open. Previously, if I recall correctly, choosing Whole song would give a fake sheet including the tag and indicating the number of repeats. In preview graphics or as a print to pdf for example I get the full song.

Hi.

When you open the Lead Sheet view, make sure that the checkbox for "Fake Sheet Mode" is selected. It sounds like this might not be selected at the moment.

Thanks Noel for the response. When I said tick "lead sheet box" I meant tick "fake sheet mode" box, so I had done what you suggest. It looks as if there is a glitch somewhere unless something else comes to mind.

I see what you mean.

When I created a test song, the on-screen display is correct in Fake Sheet Mode (left image below). The Print Out, though, does not reproduce the on-screen display. The printout shows the song without repeats and no coda (the right image below).

I have reported this thread and this issue to the development team smile

Hi, I'm experiencing problems with printing endings in fake sheet mode. Do you know if the develovment team have recognized the bug?

Hi -
You can use 'File menu | Print song in lead sheet mode' and this will work like you are describing.

The bug with the Leadsheet window Print button is fixed in the latest build 1233 - the patch is still in pre-release but it has been tested a fair bit and will be posted soon.

Here is a link if you want to install it now:
