When I put my song in "lead sheet" form and play it, there seems to problem around the time a page turns. The song keeps playing, but the current note no longer turns red.

I'd also like to know how to delete bars from a song.

Have you tried right clicking on the chord grid and selecting Delete Bars.

It's also available in the "Edit" top line menu.

You'll need to regenerate the song after doing so.

Hi Lesley,

I haven't seen that happen, but will be happy to test it.

Which program are you referring to, which version is it, and is it for Windows or Mac?

Thanks

I have the latest version of Band-in-Box Pro. (just bought it a couple of days ago) and it is the Windows version. I'm running it on a Surface Pro 4.

Is there some way of recording the screen so I could show you?

Windows 7, 8, 8.1 & 10 includes a free utility called "Problem Steps Recorder". More information is available +++ HERE +++

Another screen capture program is offered by Cockos, the same folks that makes the daw REAPER. It is called LICECAP and is available +++ HERE +++

Hi Kent,

I recorded my computer screen with my phone camera and uploaded the video to you tube. You have to turn the sound up to be able to hear anything.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJwWsgPpG0E

The glitch isn't happening the same way with this song (I can't remember what song it happened on before, but I know it briefly scrambled the page up and prevented me from reading the music). In this case, from about 22 - 24 seconds in the video you can see something odd happens to left side of the page.

Then, from about 58 - 103 seconds, and 109 to 113 seconds, the music keeps playing but the current note doesn't turn red.
(the occasional snoring in the background is my dog--sorry)

I have BiaB 2018 for Windows. My computer is a Surface Pro 4.

Thanks for looking in to this.
