I found an arrangement that I thought might make sense for me doing in the DAW plugin to get an understanding of that workflow. But I'm not seeing the "Chord Settings" option (usually Alt-F5). Is that supported somehow? I see Bar settings, but not chord settings. That one is crucial for my work - holds, rests, etc.

Just type in your chords as you would in BiaB. The plugin now recognizes the same things.

Hi cwiggins999, as Rob mentioned you would need to type the chords into the chordsheet to work from the plugin. Here is a list of recognized chords: https://www.pgmusic.com/tutorial_chordlist.htm
If you prefer, you can also do your work in the main BIAB program, then open the song file from the plugin.
Thanks Simon. I was speaking specifically of the options on the "Chord Settings" dialog - like rests, holds, pushes. I haven't found a way to bring this up in the plugin. As someone pointed out, it is possible to enter the shorthand symbols directly, but I prefer the dialog since instruments/letters can change.

Hey CWig, good morning. I doubt the plugin will have all the dialog boxes for Biab it was meant for a lite version with the ability to open BiaB song file or type in chords. How I handle that is I printed out a chord cheat sheet with the character values for those type of chords.
I hope that helps
