    Hello, Michael.

    I continue to work regularly with your program,
    and I have a few thoughts about a part of the window - the "Song list".
    Now there's Tittle, Sub-folder, Reference and Author And it's very cool.
    Is it possible to add a "Key" tab to quickly select songs in one key.
    Or let give to user configure these "Song list tabs" in the Preferences.

    with regards, Serg.

      Very good idea. I've logged it github. https://github.com/wolfyreload/OpenChords/issues/13 Allow users to customize what columns are visible in the "songs list" table

      Hi Serg,

      I ended up changing the "Song list" to only contain the name of each song. The performance of the UI gridview control was making OpenChords very very slow (probably my implementation). So this feature request didn't happen in the end. Sorry

        Hi, Michael

        I tried to make my fork in Russian language based on your github source ver. 2.3.2 .
        I wanted such an interface, with a filter by the name of the title, key, tempo and the signature, to me so it is more convenient. .
        I also changed some other functions a little.

    I'm trying to use the program with my tablet pc, and it is a bit awkward to move between songs without a keyboad attched (which is a little tricky on a music stand). Any chance you could add some forward/backward buttons or a larger menu bar to make clicking easier?

      Hi Jon,

      I've had two requests for making things a little more tablet friendly. Will see what I can do when I get a chance to dev on OpenChords again.

      Until a tablet version is ready, I'm using an app called GestureSign to map gestures to keystrokes to move to the next song. This works reasonably well with OpenSong in presentation mode. https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/store/p/gesturesign/9n45wqvk2qqw

      Hi Jon, I have released OpenChords v2.4 which now has an option in "General Settings" >> "Touch Screen Mode" this mode adds buttons on the edge of the screen for changing between songs and scrolling up and down in the song.
