For a set list, I suggest using the Open Special>Open Favorite Songs. There are two views. Recently Played is a list of the 75 most recently played songs (SGU) files.

The second view, Favorites are songs selected from the recently played songs to be added as specific songs for a Set List. As you create an SGU file for a song you want to play live, it is automatically added to the recently played list. The recently played list constantly changes and is updated with each SGU file you create. In order to preserve it as a song for a set list, you must save it as a favorite.

The Favorite View becomes the Song List you will save.

Assuming your recently played list is populated with the last 75 songs you've loaded into the program, review the list for active songs (NA means that file has been moved or deleted- so only select songs that are not NA)

As you review the active songs and find a song to add to your Set List, mark it as a FAV. This will copy that song to the Favorite's list.
Assume you create a list of 30 favorites from the recently played list. - Save the Favorites in this list using the Save Set Button. A folder window will open, give the set a unique name and save it. That Set, is now named and saved permanently in a folder on your pc.

You can now clear this unique set list, and create and open existing songs (SGU files) in order they will be added automatically to the recently played list or for every song you create or open that you intend to add to a new or existing set, open the favorite songs window and add that song from the recently played list as a FAV, to the favorites folder. Clearing the Favorites allows you to begin a new set list. The current set list you just saved can be retrieved at any time. The Favorites Folder can be saved, opened and appended then resaved to create a set over a period of days, weeks or months.

Holding the Shift key down as you open a set list allows you to open multiple saved lists appended to the first and create sets with duplicate songs in both lists.

ss2 typed into any bar of the Chord Sheet instantly opens the recently played songs and ss3 opens the favorites list. Using the shortcut does not overwrite any chord or chords that populates a bar. This allows you to add a song to a set list directly from the Chord Sheet without a series of key strokes and opening different windows.
