I am using the latest Android version of MobileSheets Pro (purchased from Google Play).

I annotate my PDF scores using the MobileSheets pen tool (handwritten annotations).

I would like to know if there is any way to export or generate a PDF with those annotations permanently embedded into the PDF, so that the resulting PDF can be opened in any PDF reader and still show all the handwritten markings.

I have tried:
Export as files
Share files
Printing to PDF

But I cannot find an option that creates a PDF with the annotations burned into the pages.

Is this currently possible? 

If so, could you explain the correct procedure?

If it is not possible, is this feature planned for a future update?

My goal is to archive my marked scores as standard PDF files while preserving all handwritten annotations exactly as they appear in MobileSheets

Thank you very much.]]>

When files are imported from Nextcloud, they are copied to library dependent (sub)folders.

When files are imported from local media, they are used 'in situ'.

I think it would be useful to have the option for local import to copy the files to library dependent (sub)folders.

Rationale is that when I have a collection of song files on local storage, and want to use these in a (new) MS library, the intention is in most cases to have independent copies so file modifications will not affect other use.]]>

Until now I haven't been able to transfer more than approx. 10-20% of my data. Every time it encounters an error on an arbitrary file (Error encountered transferring files: ...) and aborts.

When I restart the sync, it reports that it cannot find a library and starts all over again. And then fails again at some other file.

I noticed that the upload speed is horribly slow. Half an hour for 10% of the data... Average 5 seconds per file transfer regardless of size. For comparison, when I backup to Nextcloud uploading the complete backup (340Mb) takes less than a minute. The tablet has a strong WiFi connection (5GHz band, 866Mbps transfer speed).]]>

Intent: Disable Quick Action Box

1. Tap on Settings 
2. Tap Touch and Pedal Settings 
3. Tap Touch Actions
4. Change Quick Action Box dropdown from "Bottom Right Corner" to "Disabled" 
5. Tap "Close" button or on-screen "Back" button
6. Tap Touch Actions (to confirm current setting)

Outcome: Quick Action Box shows up assigned to "Bottom Right Corner" again 

Notes: 
- Same outcome (stale status) if I change the QAB from Disabled to Bottom Right Corner.
- The QAB is correctly Disabled if I view a piece and tap the bottom right corner (changing the Setting works)
- If I exit Settings and re-enter Settings, the Quick Action box then correctly shows as Disabled.

Screen cap here: https://imgur.com/a/M5Dvfop

My take: 
It seems the most recent status of the Quick Action Box is not reflected in Settings, until the Settings menu is reloaded. Changing the Quick Action Box does work, only its current status in Settings is incorrect if you exit and re-enter the Touch Actions page without fully exiting Settings.]]>

When I upsync after deleting a song (PDF and mp3-s) the PDF still exists in the Nextcloud library folder (no other libraries are present).
Some members get errors during syncing modified PDFs.

Could the old WebDAV the source of this?

Is there a way to check/modify the WebDAV?]]> That went ok, so I set up a Nextcloud environment for our choir.

I am using the MobileSheets on the Android with my external library synchonized from a cloud into my Android device.
Bacause I have my own huge library of scores, it is very usefull fore me, that the MobileSheets program can work with the external libary withou duplicating files into another place.
When I sligtly reorganized my library, I found that in the program there is great functionality "fix broken file paths".
But there is no option how preserve page crop of the file in previous location.
In switching file dialogue there is only option to automatically crop pages.
When my pages was cropped manually, I have to crop them again.
It would be nice to have "Preserve previous crop" option there.
Thanks you,
with best regards

I've read some reviews of different foot switches on this forum already, but what I can't find is something that will work with my specific table and operating system, due to it's age.

I have a question regarding BLE MIDI on Android and whether my planned setup is supported by MobileSheets.

My setup

• Android tablet: Lenovo Tab P12
  
• App: MobileSheets
  
• BLE MIDI foot controller: Hotone Ampero Control
  
• BLE MIDI adapter on my Line 6 HX Stomp: CME WIDI Master (or WIDI Thru6 BT)
  

Intended workflow

1. The Ampero Control connects to MobileSheets via BLE MIDI.
   
2. A footswitch press sends a MIDI command to MobileSheets (e.g. "Next Song").
   
3. MobileSheets changes to the next song in the setlist.
   
4. When the new song opens, MobileSheets automatically sends the corresponding Program Change (and possibly CC messages) via BLE MIDI to the CME WIDI adapter connected to the HX Stomp.
   

So MobileSheets would need to use one BLE MIDI connection as an input (Ampero Control) and another BLE MIDI connection as an output (CME WIDI) at the same time.
Is this supported on Android?

If so, are there any recommended MIDI or Bluetooth settings (Google MIDI library, connection type, etc.) that should be used to make this configuration reliable?

Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Wolfgang]]>

First of all, thank you for this really great software!

We are using MobileSheets in our little Guitar group. One member uses a Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) with Android 8.1.0. MobileSheets worked well so far until recently she desired to use the gesture functions to flip pages, and had to realize the gesture settings are not listed in her settings menu.

The cameras both work and are enabled for the use with MobileSheets.

Is the tablet simply too old?

The correct IP is 192.168.2.9.  I cannot fond 10.0.0.2 anywhere in my network settings. This used to worrk correctly.
Now I am stuck.
Is there anyone with a simiular issue end hopefully a solution?

My guess is I would need to somehow edit the original pdf to have extra space at the bottom (not sure how to do that) and then do manual cropping to avoid that being cropped off on import. Is there a better way?]]>
