2.219 Singer Names Display Command

[gpayne]

Are you sure you turned it on? It did not work for me when I clicked on it on the screen. You have to turn it on from the tools menu. There is a menu line for it in the tools menu. When you select it, you have to configure it.

Hope this helps.

you can turn it on and off by double clicking the SND button next to the timer. be carefull turning it on while someone is singing because it will show up on top of the singers display. Kind of handy though to do during long instrumentals or outros, then just single click on the singers screen and it will drop to the back or double click SND again to turn it off.

None of the above works for me to get the singer's name display to show on the TV.

I went to tools and turned it on and the little box poped up with the names on the laptop screen. I dragged it all over the place, and double clicked it as I did to solve my singer display problem, in another post.

Nothing. It will not show up on the TV, only on the laptop screen and I see no value in that, as I can already see the names as to who is singing in the playlist.

I would like for it to show on the TV who is coming up next as it would get people to be ready to come up and sing, but I can't get it to happen.

have you resized your singers scren

at the top of your tv move your cusrcer over to your tv grab one of the coners of the scren and make it smaller then move you singer list over

if you can see it on the hoster side
then you can resize your tv and move it over there

i know we are just not wording it right for you
but i dont know any other way t tell you how to do this

Is this what I do?

I first make the singers list show up on my laptop screen. I then make my curser show up on the TV screen and move it to a corner of the screen and grab a corner of the screen and make it smaller, so that the singer list can show up on the TV.

I assume I have to right or left click in order to grab a corner of the TV screen. Is that correct?

I then right or left click on the singer name list on the laptop, and drag it so it shows up on the TV.

I would perfer that the singers names be behind the song lyrics, so that it will only show, after the song is over. I understand this can be done, but I don't see a command for this.

Last night all went well at my show with the upgrade, and today I will try the above to get this feature working. I will also read the manual to see if that helps me understand this more.

left click

and if you do it the way we do i think you will like it up all the time

Another option.
On your laptop screen, size the box the way you want. From the tools/singer name display, configure how many names, whether you want song titles displayed as well, and font style and size and color, if default is not satisfactory (default was to small for my liking).Click OK and then grab the screen with the mouse and slide it over to your TV. The screen is persistant so it will stay wherever you put it. Unless you set it up the way mikedombroski suggests, the screen will stay behind the lyrics untill the song stops.

Neither way is right or wrong, it's just 2 different options.
