    Default add new system to chord chart

    The chord chart will make no sense without the ability to divide into the song's structural parts. How do I insert a system break?

    Not sure I understand your question.

    I identify song sections with rehearsal marks and text labels as needed.

    Here’s how I approach making a new chart

    If I select/highlight some measures one of the choices that is provided is “insert space”. I can also use the add/remove buttons to adjust spaces one by one.

    FOR HELP WITH YOUR CHART
    For help with a chart post your chart here in iRp format so members can download it and open it in the editor.

    Thanks, BOB. I figured that out on my own. But that's really a kluge. It's a 16-bar AABA. The png. is the finished form. It was impossible to read letting the editor decide where to start the new system.

    1. Always share charts directly from your app in iRp format (share>Share chord chart>Forums) following the instructions in the app. In OSX look under: Help/Tutorials and Help/Help & Support.

    Charts in other formats (pdf,jpg etc) can’t be opened in the iRp editor.

    2. You are missing a barline at the start of the 2nd system.

    3. Bar repeat signs are placed in space 2 of a 4-space measure so they will be centered in the measure.
