View Song Lyrics/Chords

Yes - thank you. It’s not shown in the image but is in the gig file sent.

You have to do this mapping

I got that working - Thanks! I was trying to use System Actions - it’s been awhile.
Any idea what’s going on with the black screen in the Song/Lyrics Window?

edit : It’s very strange. Intermittent behavior. Sometimes it opens a readable window with Chords and Lyrics - most times it doesn’t.

Now I find that if I close the Window with the Top Right X and toggle the Button Off, then ON - it opens properly …?
I’m starting to think it’s Windows 10 Problem.

Are you using the Open GL or Software renderer? Perhaps try the other.

[keytarman]

Thanks - tried it - no difference.
Confirmed - closing the window with the BUTTON and opening the same or any other song with it will display the black window. If I close it without the button it opens correctly.

EDIT
I got it sorted.
Man, I feel silly.
It helps to have the Widget “ON” in every rackspace

duh

Hi, i have to same problem, tried setting the widget to ON in every rackspace, it works as long as i do not close the window. But i get the problem when i close the window, and then tries opening it again. Do you experience the same problem when you open/close or is the problem completely solved for you?

[keytarman]

Nope - If you close the Window with the Button using Midi or a Click, the next one opened is Black.

It seems like there might be a bug in Gigperformer so that when the window closes on ShowChordProWindow(false) the view tab goes black (i am on Windows, might not happen on Mac?). When i close the window with the regular x in the upper right corner of the window, this does not happen. And when i close a blacked out window with the regular x it «resets» back to normal. Maybe @npudar knows something about this? I tried another solution with triggering keycommands like CMD+Shift+W from my foot controller via Midikey2key and Bome midi translator classic. It worked on Notepad, but not Gigperformer.

What version of Gig Performer are you using?

[OU812]

4.8 on Windows11

[OU812]

Sorry, 4.8.2 that is

Can you upload a rackspace or small gig file showing the issue, so I could check?
