Show mode

The strip, turning pages, the dark page and show notes.

2 min 49. Captions are on. The captions button in the player turns them off.

Show mode and the strip

Show mode, top right, is for running the show.
It is locked. Nothing on the page can be moved, changed or deleted. The screen stays awake.
The strip names the cues on this page. Standby is the next cue after the page turn, with its note and page.

Turn the page by tapping either side, by swiping, or with a Bluetooth pedal.
A tap anywhere in the outer fifth of the screen turns the page.
Pair a pedal in the iPad's Bluetooth settings. Any pedal that sends arrow keys, Page Up and Page Down, or space will work.
With Half-page turns on in Settings, the first turn brings in the top half of the next page above an orange line. The second turn finishes it. A turn back cancels it.
Pinch to zoom. Fit puts the page back.

Dark page in Show mode, also in Settings, is for a dark booth. The script goes light on dark. Cues and tags keep their colours.
Dim darkens the whole screen.
To leave, press and hold Hold to exit.

In Show mode, tap Note in the strip.
The Pencil now writes on the page in red. A finger still turns pages.
Strokes on one page within six seconds of each other are one note.
These are notes, not ink. Erase, and Undo, leave them alone.
Afterwards, open Notes in the side panel. Each one shows its words, page and song. Tap to go there.
QPlot reads the writing. Tap the scribble button on a row to see it as you wrote it.
Tick a note once it is dealt with. It leaves the page and drops under Done. Untick to put it back.

For bigger cue stamps, set Cue size in Settings.
Tags as dots keep the page clear. Tap a dot to read its name. It shuts after five seconds.
Do Not Disturb is yours to switch on.
If the strip reads Not saving, the iPad is out of space. Free some.
Arrow keys and page keys also turn pages while plotting.
