Song text of first verse does not show up on Stage Display

2/26/2021

Applicable SongShow Plus Versions: 
This article applies to all SongShow Plus 9.x and later versions when using a Stage (or other mirrored) Display.

Symptom:
When using SongShow Plus to present a song, the song text of the first verse does not show up on the Stage Display as expected.  Remaining verses display as expected.

Possible Cause: 
Setting the first slide in the custom slide order to a Blank Slide can cause this behavior.

Possible Solution: 
Do not use a Blank Slide as the first slide in the custom order.  If the user wishes to display a Blank Slide before the song, do so by inserting a Blank Slide in the Program before the song.

Possible Cause: 
A mismatch of the Build Options for the song slides that determine where the credits (Title/Author/Copyright) for the song appear may cause this behavior.

Possible Solution: 
Ensure that the "Include..." options are the same for each enabled display.

  • Open Slide Properties
  • Select All Media > Song Text Layout > Build options
  • Under the "Include title, author..." setting, make sure all displays have the same setting.
