I'm trying to write chord charts in BIAB. My song has 1st and 2nd ending and a DC al coda. It looks fine on the computer screen but when I print it out it prints the entire song even when fake is checked. How can I print in fake mode to have my printed chart to look like a fake chart?

Works find for me. And you posted in the wrong forum.
This is where people post tricks and tips on particular issues, like how to get your wife to agree to let you spend 6,000 bucks to set up a room of your own to practice dobro.

Save up the munny and use it buy her some jewelry, PapaMikie.
But don't just hand her the jewelry, make sure to accompany that with some speech first. "I scrimped and saved from all those nights I was out working hard on the gig, baby, when I would have rather been with YOU, so I could buy you this necklace..."
Jewelers do layaway.
As for the Chord Chart question, you can control more things if you take the time to hit the Options button in the Fakesheet mode and check out what some of those options can do for you, like printing only one chorus with the repeats so that it fits on one or two pages and doesn't print out the entire song.
You should also use Print Preview, which is a WYSIWYG situation, save paper that way, checking the Print Preview again until you have things the way you want them to be first, then hit the Print button.

PapaMike:
Well, I'm on marriage #2.
I shopped. LOL
Met her as she was the bridesmaid at my sis's wedding. As my sister and I are alike and they have been friends for 6 years I guess we hit it off.
She's easy going, and understands my creative side.
I put a lot (for me) of cash in CIBC Natural Resources and CIBC Energy Mutual Funds. I've not touched , added to,or moved it for 15 years.
The house is ours, lived here for 20 years. Had 5 kids in the house when we bought, just one left, and she's soon gone. I am going to surprise her with my recently departed son's bedroom and her dream new sewing machine. I hope she will go back to making my shirts like after we were married and before the kids took up all our time.
I spent 2 to 3k every summer on educational vacations. 8 weeks in Ottawa (well Cantley), but some things there every Canadian should go see, touch and do. Quebec City, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, all we've missed is NFLD, Yukon and NWT really. I don't have to spend that anymore.
Some property in Temiskaming that appreciates nicely.
But, my wife plays keyboards, flute, cornet, trumpet, oboe, bassoon, percussion, trombone, baritone and Euphonium.
And we play together, about an hour a night average.
No bribery needed!
The only area I have a small problem is at the grocery store. Stuff I put in the basket can end up back on the shelves. We don't need that......YIKES.
So while she's at work I shop. "those were nice steaks...when did we buy those?"...GRIN....

We have raised a couple of kids. One of mine one of hers, although the truth is mine was mostly grown before we got together, we now have four grandkids. My son's we used to take out and do a lot with them, and then return them home. I always said, "The nice thing about grand kids is you can take them out fill them with sugar and take them back."
Our latest one lives with us with his mom. She works a fair bit of shift work and so we find ourselve raising an other one. In many ways it is easier, focus has changed, but if we fill him with sugar we can't give him back, so we don't.
So both of our's (kids) where gone, one plus one is back. Life is good, but priorites are what they are, climber in the back yard superceeded some sound equipment, but the truth is, the climber has injected fun for us, for Aden and for the kids in the houses near by.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
