Release Notes

OnSong 1.9991

OnSong 1.9991 was released on November 17, 2015. This release fixes found issues in the previous release.

Known Issues

  • If the Force Enharmonic Preference option is turned on in Settings » Display Settings » Song Formatting » Enharmonic, the song may not transpose. It is recommended to turn this option off since issues with capo and enharmonic preferences has been resolved in the latest version.

Added

  • Added the ability to keep OnSong running in the background all the time or never at all. The default is set to keep OnSong running in the background his audio is playing such as the metronome or backing tracks. »
  • Added the "Set Viewport" option to the Annotations menu to restore the scroll position, zoom and selected section. This should be used instead of Remember Zoom/Position to avoid issues where the song returns to the end of the song since that was the last known position of the song. This was added to correct a perceived flaw in OnSong's features. »
  • Added the ability to set the section behavior when scrolling by section. »

Removals

  • Removed the ability to set the pitch of the metronome sound. This was done to remove a third party audio component that is incompatible with iOS 8 and higher which was causing the background audio issue. We will address setting the pitch of the metronome in OnSong 2.0. »

Changes

  • Changed the Video Tutorials screen to provide a link to the OnSong YouTube channel in case users cannot load videos in the app. »
  • Changed the Foot Pedals pane in settings to link to the Scrolling Behavior as a child pane instead of duplicating options. »
  • Changed the new slider control to "lock" into stepped amounts when tapped on the left or right. For instance, if the underlying value is slid to 17.25, tapping on the right side will move the value to 18 instead of 18.25.
  • Changed the way OnSong handles corrupted databases so that it no longer shuffles and backs up SQLite databases. This was causing non-corrupted databases to be marked as corrupted. If a database does become corrupted, it will automatically check the library and prompt the user to fix the library if necessary.
  • Changed OnSong Console to respond to section selection when the Follow option is turned on.
  • Changed the way the Apply Style screen works to always redraw the loaded songs or set when applying the style to All Songs.

  • Changed OnSong to import MP3 files as songs in the All Songs menu if imported from the All Songs menu. These songs will appear even if there are no lyrics associated with the MP3 file. Importing MP3 files from the OnSong Media Library screen or via the "open in" function will not be added to All Songs.
  • Changed the "Create Folder" screen to automatically capitalize words.
  • Changed OnSong Connect to have tighter restrictions on provisioned content that has lost it's provisioning.
