Why does Band in a Box seem to freeze for a few seconds after starting the program. Then, after a flash refresh of the screen and the initial chord letter "C" in the first bar appears ...




I've have been wondering this same thing and have always meant to ask about it.
Especially since I don't remember it happening three versions ago.
It seemed to start with Ver. 2008.

This is part of the startup sequence where it is looking for the setting you have it on,go into Pref and on the lower lefthand side it says"at program bootup" and there are 3 choices- open previous song-open previous style-don`t open song or style,




1. Thanks, that helped a lot. It still pauses with a blank screen but it is much quicker now.

2. RE: "3 choices- open previous song-open previous style-don`t open song or style"

I brought this issue up a very long time ago. As you said, one of the choices is "Don't Open Song or Style."
But, in fact, even if selected BiaB still opens with "Jazz Swing Style."
I forgot what Peter's response was at the time but it was basically 'yeah, the wording is wrong.'

I have pointed out a few of those kind of things but I don't see any of them (that I can recall) being corrected.
As I've mentioned before, great program ... but needs a lot of cleaning up. - Mark
