Might it be possible to background highlight chord boxes / cells / bars in a particular colour to more easily differentiate Intro; Verse; Chorus etc? For example - Intro Background may be Blue; verses are shown with a red background. Bridge - Yellow etc...

It seems that would make it easier (for me certainly) to navigate & structure the song at a glance.

Thank you.

Certainly would be ideal for quickly identifying specific sections of a song, especially for live performing.

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Thank you for the suggestion, it does sound like an intriguing idea to help with organization. I'll pass this along to the development team for consideration.

Let's hope Chantelle encourages the development team enough to see this come to reality. It would be a cool feature. No question.

Yes. It could the the answer to the intro, verse, chorus, etc requests, one color for each.

Well, I wish I could just say that I did it inside BiaB, but not so. I created a screen capture and then used an off-line editing graphics tool (Techsmith Snagit) to add the effect.

Sorry, any suggestion that the goods could be delivered were definitely unintentional frown
But I think your idea is worthy of merit, and we can only hope it might be implemented.
