Right alignment of footer texts in songs and prevent displaying copyright symbol twice
Currently it's possible to indicate the horizontal alignment of the song text in the theme editor. But this is not available for footer texts. We would like to align the copyright text in the lower right corner. We currently have configured a fixed resolution of 1024x768. It is possible to define a X and Y coordinate with the width and height of the footer text area. But with short copyright texts there is a lot of white-space to the right of it. With long texts not all text is visible. A right alignment option could solve this or maybe there is a work around with the use of some format tags?
Beside that I remember there was a function to hide the copyright symbol in version 2 but I cannot find it in version 3. Is this function removed? For some song books the copyright symbol was already there. For these songs the copyright symbol is displayed twice when projecting.
Can you bring back the function to hide the copyright symbol and make it possible to configure this for each song book independently?
Comments
Anyone?
Ok, I created feature requests Alignment option for footer texts (#1314) · Issues · openlp / OpenLP · GitLab and Hide the copyright symbol and make it possible to configure this for each song book independently (#1315) · Issues · openlp / OpenLP · GitLab.
Hopefully you can add this to a future release.
At my church we have manually entered the copyright symbol for each song when we entered each song's copyright statement, so we now have the same issue of it displaying twice. We'd prefer to not have to manually remove the symbol from each song!
Can the option to hide the automated copyright symbol please be re-added?
You can give a "thumbs-up" at my request here Hide the copyright symbol and make it possible to configure this for each song book independently (#1315) · Issues · openlp / OpenLP · GitLab; hopefully that helps. :-)
Sadly, a thumbs up doesn't give me more time in my day... if only it did.
Hahaha.
Just to close the loop here, we made the entire footer much more flexible. In the Settings -> Songs, there's a Footer section, and you just need to remove the copyright symbol from there.
See my more detailed comment on the GitLab ticket.
Yes, this is a solution for the double copyright symbol.
