Annotation Function

In the PDF document view, press the "..." button.

Then select "Edit annotations."

You can move the toolbar using this bar and position it on the left, right, or top.

Insert Annotations

First, select in the toolbar the type of annotation you want to insert and then place it at the desired position in the document.

There are several variants of the annotation types for highlighting text and drawing shapes. (You can recognize this by the small arrow in the corner of the button.) If you press such a button a little longer, a menu will open to select the desired variant.

Below you will find an overview of all possible annotation types.

On the buttons and menus in the image below, you will see a number. The corresponding annotations are marked with the same number.

Deleting Annotations

If there is still an active button on the toolbar, press it again to deactivate the tool.

Tap anywhere on the annotation to open the related menu.

Press "Remove" to delete the annotation.

Change Annotations

If a button is still active in the toolbar, press it again so that no tool is active.

Tap anywhere on the annotation to open the related menu.

Press "Properties..." to open a window with the properties (color, font, etc.).

Tip for Chord Annotations:

If you customize a chord annotation this way (color, size, etc.), all other chord annotations in the same song will also adopt the same appearance.

Also, chord annotations added later will adopt this setting.

Copying Annotations

If a button in the toolbar is still active, press it again so that no tool is active anymore.

Tap anywhere on the annotation to open the corresponding menu.

Press "Copy" to copy the annotation to the clipboard.

Frequently Save Used Annotations

Functional Button Annotations

A very special annotation is the functional button annotation.

With it, you can insert a button anywhere in the document and configure it with various actions to be executed when tapped.

Possible functions include sending various MIDI commands, jumping to another page, starting or stopping playback, scrolling, or the metronome, and much more.

The functional buttons can optionally also have a group number. This is used, for example, to control specific functional buttons or one functional button after another with a foot pedal based on this group number.

It is also possible to create functional buttons that display the value of a specific MIDI controller on a specific MIDI channel. When you tap the button, a slider appears, allowing you to change the controller value.

To do this, create a normal functional button and add "MIDI CC Button" as the only action.
