## Selected Measure

The selected measure indicator (yellow rectangle) no longer draws over chord symbols.

A stub for preferences has been added. We still need to tie it into our backend however, so it's just for looks. Let us know if you would like to see a particular preference.

Preferences save and load, but still do nothing.

New preferences and editor widgets, including page margins.

Added *Show Sample Documents* preference

## Page Breaks

Fixed some cases where page breaks were in final measure, before text or lyrics.

# 2017.04.15

## Chord Diagrams

Chord diagrams no longer overlap, and are drawn smaller to fit in a single beat.

**Chord diagrams now export**

**Chord diagrams transpose**

Chord diagrams appear in their own menu.

Eb chords now render, along with other b chords.

Bass notes render on same line when chord diagrams are enabled. e.g. D/F#

Slashes shift up with the chord when chord diagrams are enabled.

# 2017.04.13

We caught up to 2017 and fixed the year in the release notes :)

    ## Titles

    Titles center better.

# 2017.04.08

## Chord Diagrams

They won't export yet, but will still give you a sweet taste. We plan on supporting Guitar, Bass, Ukulele, and Mandolin at first.

## Find and Replace

Find and Replace was moved to Goodies, and now includes a *match entire word* option. Great for changing all G chords to G7, without renaming the word Gorilla in your lyrics.

## Viewing Modes

Several new viewing modes have been added in addition to Fit Width and Fit Height

- Fit Page
- 2 Up
- 3 Up
- 4 Up
- Horizontal Scrolling (This is the coolest thing since sliced bread.) *Fit Page* is now the default viewing mode.

    The Music Keyboard was moved from Edit to Goodies.

    ## Abbreviate and Unabbreviate

    2 new goodies let you change all your chord symbol to long or short form.

    ## Remember last screen view

    The app will now remember your last view position and fit setting.

    ## Titlecase Book Table of Contents

    The book table of contents will now titlecase all titles and artist. There is a setting to disable this in the BookMaker.

    ## Bookmaker

    The bookmaker now enables PDF and disables ePub by default. Group-By-Artist and Sort-By-Title are now enabled by default.

Brief instructions have been added to the help file for creating a book.

## Sample Charts

Sample charts have been added to the *New Document* menu. Let us know if you want to see any specific examples.

## Deselect All

A *Deselect All* command was added to the *Edit Menu* to clear that pesky yellow highlight.

## Centered Chords

Centered chords now really do center in bars with meters and fat barlines.

# 2017.04.06

## Feature Tracking

We will be allowing trial users to access use some features on a limited basis. This should not affect Beta-Testers, so let us know if you are restricted from anything.

## Bug Reporting

Beta-Testers will now see a *Report Bug* item in the *Goodies* menu. Please use this to send bug or feature requests to us.

## ... Look Like Shit

Beta-Testers will now see a *This chart looks like shit* item in the *Goodies* menu. Please use this to send the chart you are viewing to us (if it really does look bad).

## Contact Us

All users will now see a *Contact Us* item in the *Goodies* menu. Please use this to send us general messages.

## Many Formatting Fixes

Lots of improvements and fixes, including longer needing padding commas to space out text blocks.

---

# 2017.04.04

## Official URL

We purchased the domain https://www.quickchords.org/.

You can simply go to [quickchords.org](https://www.twelvetone.tv/docs/arts-and-education/quickchords/change-log/quickchords.org) and you will be redirect to the secure site.

## Lyric page breaks

Lyric blocks that overflow off the page now create page breaks.

## Imported lyrics song name

Lyrics now import with the title **Song Name - Lyrics**. This way the lyrics chart will not overwrite a chord chart with the same name.

# 2017.04.03

## Login dialog

New users are logged in as guest, with no login dialog. There is a login button in the menu. The **login dialog only appears when you click the button**, so if you want to get to your account, and you are not logged in, you will need to click the button.

## Changes to default features

Charts now use ?autobreak and ?noslash by default. You do not need to include them. This should keep your charts lean and clean.

## Dialog close button

The full screen dialog now has a close button on the top and bottom.
