Is there a way of changing the font for the songs? I saw your installation instructions say something about installing fonts manually from the archive but I do not see the fonts anywhere.
I'd also like to know if we can change the color of tab? I like to differentiate parts of my tabs with color, ie; Chords-blue, Tab-light blue, section header-red, etc.

You only need to install the fonts manually if you want to install LivePrompter manually from the ZIP file - the installer takes care of font installation automatically. There is currently no way to change the font LP uses - and it's not a development priority for me, since I (and most users) have found the current fonts very legible for live use. My priority for LivePrompter is ease of use and legibility, not fancy design- and font-work. Keep things simple... Re different colors: please check section 6 of the manual - you can set the colors of individual elements in LivePrompter.ini using HTML color codes, e.g. #FFFF00 for yellow. There are a number of categories to set colors for, e.g. TextColor, SectionHeaderColor, ChordColor, CommentColor, etc. There is currently no specific setting for "guitar tab" section colors (i.e. those sections enclosed in "start_of_tab" / "end_of_tab"), but you could use highlights as a separate color and enclose the tab section in "start_of_highlight" / "end_of_highlight" additionally, and set HighlightColor accordingly. Could work if you don't use the highlight feature otherwise. I might add a TabColor setting for LivePrompter.ini if there's strong demand for it. Cheers, Torsten
