I'm running into a problem with chord display in lead sheet mode. I don't want the staff lines in the print out. I've got that figured out, BUT I have two bars of time changes, and the signatures cover up the chord symbols, both on screen and in print. Is there a way to move the chord symbols to the right a little? I'm finding settings for vertical position, but not horizontal. Also, is there a way to put hash marks within the empty bars of the lead sheet that will show "quarter strokes"? Sorry if that's the wrong terminology. Thanks.

Hi Jen,

I've had a good play around with BIAB and I cannot find any way to do this. I suspect you are working on the fringes of BIAB's limitations.

Not that I know of. I've just finished having a look in all areas that I could think of that might do this but I have hit a dead end. It may well be that you need a program that is solely dedicated to notation to do this.

Should any others know how to solve this, I'm pretty sure that they will chime in.

If I were you, I'd add these requests to the wishlist forum.

Regards,
Noel

I'm sure this won't work, but how about reducing chord symbol font size?
