I often loop certain sections of songs to get a grasp on them for soloing. When using the loop function the area I loop becomes black while he chords remain in white letters. I would like to be able to change colors and find a combination that is easier to see on the fly. Does anyone have or recognize the difficulty, and how did you solve it?
Thanks in advance

This may assist, but may also depend on which version you have. If it is 2018 or later, right click an a chord cell and select Display Options, then select the value as shown and change the color. My results are below.

Sorry for my latency in replying, this is exactly what I need. I also forgot to mention I have BIAB 2021, so while I am reasonably up to date technically I do lag a bit on the user side. Let me try this and get back to you. Thanks again!

Thanks! Yes, that worked very nicely on my loops. Is there a way to do the same thing while playing the entire song? I tried to use the same method but did not get results other than the black background and white chord signs.

Did you want to loop the entire song (i.e. select all bars)? If so, you don't need to select all the bars, just select loop from the play menu:

Thanks VT! I am almost embarrassed in sticking my head up to say thanks, why didn´t I think of that? Despite my embarrassment I really appreciate your help!

Hi 0zoro

Too Easy. Glad you got this working. Also: There are no silly questions here, only sometime there are silly answers smile

You may consider opening your original post and marking it as 'Resolved' (there's a button available for that). This can assist others in the future also.
