able to create a list of songs, in particular keys, and use this as a music songbook (like the Android version) - so I decided to write one.
#Opensong song format windows
Recently, my Android tablet has shown signs of breaking down, however, I've got a Microsoft Surface - and while there's an OpenSong editor for Windows - I've not been able to get this to work as an 'on stage' viewer - i.e. The Android tablet has an opensong viewer, and this is what is used on stage. The normal way of working is to use the Windows main program to enter/edit songs, and have those songs saved to dropbox/google drive etc, which is then sync'd to my Android tablet. I've been using OpenSong for a while now - the concept has been both simple, yet versitile enough to use on a daily basis when playing 'live' - I've especially liked the ability to transpose any song into any key I desire - its meant I've not had to carry around multiple copies of song sheets with me. This means that chord characters can move slightly when the base key switches from a single to a double character - e.g. NOTE - if you edit in the current transposed value, this will overwrite the original base key.Improvement - new preference setting - when editing, you can choose to always edit in the original base key, or edit in the current transposed value.Improvement - when you select a song in the songlist, you can now use right and left cursor or arrows under the songlist to move up and down the list.
