Hi,

I occasionally accompany choirs. Lot of the songs used have the same titel but do differ internally.
I create  a collection per choir. And use batch import from data I ftp'ed to my external SD card.

But while I'm importing it doesn't do what I want.

It comes, depending on the setting, with duplicates, or updates a prevkously loaded version of the file.

What's the best way to approach this?

As of today, the overlay won't appear anymore when I tap the screen while viewing a song. Additionally, Tapping anywhere in the right 80% of the screen advances to the next page (with the left 20% pages backward). The music player and quick action box still appear when the bottom or bottom right are tapped.

I'm using an older tablet, an ASUS TF300t with Android 4.2.1. I've got an exact duplicate tablet, but I currently have it at a theatre gig and I won't be there again until Thursday this week to test if it's a tablet issue or a MobileSheets issue.

I just encountered another minor bug.

After importing some songs and metadata with a csv file which had a error I can't edit the page field for the entry of one song on the tablet.

The error was that I had the content of the custom field in the wrong place so it was imported to the page field which normally doesn't allow alpha characters. 
If it's forced to accept alpha characters through the csv it seems to block editing the page field as a whole afterwards. 

I can easily delete the song and import it anew. But blocking the editing probably isn't the behaviour you intended, Mike.

First again,

great work with this feature, Mike. Another thing I was going to suggest but you already provided it in MSP. But if you didn't read in the manual or know it otherwise it isn't that obvious.

So if there are folks who - like me - weren't aware of it: The "jump to letter sidebar" not only works with tapping, but with a long press it let's you select and jump to the next letters. That's terrific for big collections and saves much scrolling.

There's a tiny bug though in my case (Android 7, Xperia Z4, MSP 1.8.5): After I used the long press the first time now there appeared two additional entries after the L in the sidebar. The first one is the hyphen and the second one ist LE (but the E under the L, so it's a single "button" to jump to "LE" which it does).

Dear mobilesheets users,

I'm working with both windows 10 and android versions of the app. 
I edit the scores (annotations, linking points etc.) on the windows version, back it up and then restore the same file on my android device (Samsung S5 Neo).
I updated today both windows and android apps to the 1.85 version.
Unfortunately the annotations are either not backed up correctly, or not being restored right, since the annotations I make on the windows app, do not show on the android app after restore.

Interestingly I also noticed, that I cannot change the size of the linking points on the android mobilesheets-pro anymore.



Thanks in advance for any help,

MobileSheetsPro Companion v2.5.8 has been released with a number of bug fixes and updates to incorporate the latest changes on Android/Windows 10. The changes are as follows:

• Updated to correctly handle all of the new MIDI commands
  
• Fixed sorting to not treat an underscore as punctuation
  
• Fixed sorting on the Custom and Custom2 columns
  
• Fixed potential database errors while editing songs
  
• When importing and replacing existing files, you can now choose to swap all files at once
  

I have a text file displayed in two columns.
The text, chords, and comments are displayed correctly in both columns.

The tag {highlight: xxxx} is not displayed correctly in the right column.
The background is correct to the right, but the text is displayed on the left column, mixed with the text of the left-hand column.

I released two more updates for Android and Windows 10 to fix bugs. Here is the full list of changes:

MobileSheetsPro v1.8.5 (Android)

• The pedal debounce setting now correctly applies to all pedal actions
  
• Fixed database error when editing songs and saving annotations
  
• Added support for importing files in the song editor from additional sources using Google's file picker
  
• Fixed bug when using a chord pro highlight command with "Place Chords Above Text" disabled.
  
• File sharing and opening PDF attachments will now fallback to the previous implementation on devices not running Android 7.0+
  
• Fixed sorting bug with entries on the dialog used for picking multiple values after tapping a dropdown arrow
  
• Fixed bug with accessing password protected PDFs
  
• Updated Spanish, German and Dutch translations
  

• The pedal debounce setting now correctly applies to all pedal actions
  
• Fixed bugs that could prevent an Android library backup file from being restored correctly
  
• Fixed database error when editing songs and saving annotations
  
• Fixed bug when using a chord pro highlight command with "Place Chords Above Text" disabled.
  
• Fixed bug with adding/removing songs in the group editor for non-setlist groups
  
• Updated Spanish, German and Dutch translations
  

I've only just started using this app so it's all pretty new to me. I've been adding annotations to a score but I'm having problems with the text size. 
In this first screenshot you can see the original annotation - text size 15.0

In this second shot I have tried to add another annotation at a later time but it is clearly much bigger than the original in spite of it also showing as size 15.0

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
