If you've been a long time program user, you may have noticed that with each release of a new version of Band-in-a-Box® we add 50+ new features and enhancements.

Over time, you may have forgotten all the different things that Band-in-a-Box® can do. Well, with the release of Band-in-a-Box® 2020 for Windows, we've solved this issue by added a Feature Browser!

How does it work? Access this feature by clicking on the [?] button on the main screen of the program or pressing the / Enter keys on the Chord Sheet. This dialog lists many features of the program and allows you to browse them, find the feature by text filter, read descriptions about the feature, find how to launch the feature, access to the online information or video about the feature, and do more.

Examples of a few situations where this feature is helpful:
  • You know about a feature but don't know how to find it. Just type a part of the feature name and you'll see the hotkeys, menu, and toolbar info on how to launch it. For example, if you want to launch the Chord Builder but don’t know how to do it, type "builder" in the text filter, and you will quickly find the Chord Builder.
  • You are exploring available features for Band-in-a-Box. For example, if you are a guitar player, type the word "guitar" and you'll see what's available.
  • You prefer "one-stop-shopping" and would like to launch features from the same dialog.
  • You are learning the program and like to browse or watch videos about topics you're interested in.
  • You can't remember hotkeys and want to review them.

Watch this new feature in action when you jump to the subject in our New Features video:
