MRWikiAdmin: /* Using & Managing Playlists in Library */

The Library in MusicReader is the place to find, organize and open your pieces.

In this section we will give an overview of the functionality.

'''Image 1''' shows how to get to the Library inside MusicReader.

[[File:Top Menu - Library Icon.png|none|thumb|604x604px|Image 1 - Get to Library using top menu.]]
[[File:Music Library Screen.png|thumb|473x473px|Image 2 - Music Library Screen]]

=== <div id="Finding / Selecting File">Finding / Selecting File</div> ===
After clicking library icon in top menu you see the screen in Image 2.

Here you can:

# Search by entering text. '''(1)'''
# Limiting the library to a specific folder. '''(2)''' See also the next section [[Music Library#Folders - Using and Adding|Folders - Using and Adding]].
# Sort the list based on a single column. '''(3)''' By default the sorting is on the first column.
# Jump in the list based on first letter of sorted column. '''(4)'''
# See details about piece without opening it. '''(5)'''
# Open the piece - simply click the piece itself.

[[File:Library - Select a folder.png|thumb|Image 3 - Select a folder|473x473px]]

=== <span id="Folders - Using and Adding">Folders - Using and Adding</span> ===
A piece in MusicReader can be added to one or more folders.

Inside the library you can select a folder to only show files inside that folder and it's subfolders.

In this section we will describe how to add and use folders.

==== Using & Managing Folders in Library ====
The main usage of folders is to limit the files shown in the library.

So you can then have it for example show files of a single ensemble / band / orchestra .

The library shows files from both the selected folder and it's subfolders.

In Image 3 we show the procedure for limiting the library to a folder.

First you press '''(1)''' which will make dropdown '''(2)''' appear.

Here you can select the folder to which you want to limit the library.

After you have done that the library will only show the pieces in that folder (and subfolders).

If you want to manage the listed folders then you press "Manage Folders" '''(3)'''.

Then you see the screen shown in Image 4.

Here you can select a folder in '''(1)'''.

Then you can add a subfolder by using "Add Folder" '''(2)'''. This folder will be placed inside the folder selected.
[[File:Adding and Removing Folders.png|thumb|Image 4 - Adding and Removing Folders|474x474px]]
If you press "Remove Folder" '''(3)''' then the selected folder will be removed, together with it's subfolders.

This action will not remove any pieces inside your library, they will remain and will still be available under "Complete Library".

==== <span id="Adding / Removing Files from folder">Adding / Removing Files from folder</span> ====
There multiple ways to put files in one or more folder.

In this sections we will give an overview.

===== Add Files =====
The most easy way to add a piece to a folder is when adding the file.

This method is describe in [[Adding Files]] .

Check that section for more information.

Automatic Page Turn

2023-07-24T18:48:40Z

MRWikiAdmin:

With "Automatic Page Turning" feature, you can specify a delay for each page in your sheet music.

After that delay, MusicReader will turn the page automatically.

This delay can not only be set for full page turns, but also for half page turns.

In the absence of a specified delay, MusicReader will wait for a manual page turn, allowing you to easily combine automatic and manual page turns.

"Automatic Page Turning" can be found in the full menu of MusicReader under "Piece Functions".

After activating, you get the menu shown in '''image 1'''.

There, you can choose between starting the timer '''(1)''' or setting up the delays '''(2)'''.

[[File:Automatic Page Turning - Menu.png|thumb|1054x1054px|Image 1 - Automatic Page Turning - Menu|none]]

=== Setup page Delay ===
After selecting "Setup Page Delay" you get the menu of '''Image 2'''.

In this setup menu, you see the settings for the current displayed page, including any enabled half page turn.

So you navigate through the pages to set up the delay for each page.
[[File:Automatic Page Turning - Setup Menu.png|thumb|881x881px|Image 2 - Automatic Page Turning - Setup Menu|none]]

Under '''(1)''' you see the number of currently displayed page and arrows to change the page.

Of course, you can also press the sheet music to turn the page.

After turning the page, the menu will change to settings of the new page.

With the input '''(2)''' you can manually set the delay (in seconds) of the current displayed page.

This is the delay starting from the previous page turn (or start of timer).

With "Record Timing" '''(3)''' you can record the timing of the page turns.

After pressing the input field will start counting.

This counting can be stopped in two ways:

* You can press the "Stop" button - this stops the counter and will store the delay.
* Turn to the next page - this will store the delay and then start a new timer for the next page. In this way, you play the whole piece and record delay while doing that.

With '''(4)''' you can set the type of page turn for the currently displayed page.

For example, you can choose between half and whole page turn when using one-page mode.

Do this before you start setting the delays.

This option is only available is you have set the page turn of MusicReader to be "Page Defined".

If not, then the option is shown as disabled and the general set page turn is used.

If you want to change the general page turn, then go to [[Display Mode|"Display Mode"]] '''(5)'''.

=== Start / Stop Timer ===

After you press the "Start Timer" button, then the timer starts immediately.

You will then see the menu as displayed in '''Image 3'''.
[[File:Automatic Page Turning - Timer in Progress - Menu.png|thumb|831x831px|Image 3 - Automatic Page Turning - Timer in Progress - Menu|none]]

In this menu, you can pause the timer using '''(1)''' or stop the timer using '''(2)'''.

Also, you will see a countdown inside the menu if a delay is specified.

Is there no countdown?

Then no delay was specified, MusicReader then waits for your manual page turn.

[[File:Zooming & Cropping.png|thumb|Image 10 - Zoomed sheet music with zoom/crop menu.|466x466px]]
=== <div id="Cropping">Cropping</div> ===
Sheet music has white areas around it which you might want to remove to make notes larger.

Or remove certain parts of music, like specific staff at top and bottom.

This can be done by cropping the music.

This can be done in two ways:

===== Save zoom as Crop =====
With zooming you can alter the cropping of the piece:[[File:Crop Screen.png|thumb|Image 11 - Crop Screen|468x468px]]
# First pinch-to-zoom on your touchscreen or use the scrollwheel of you mouse. Pinch-to-zoom is touching two fingers on the touch screen, and move them apart to zoom in, or together to zoom out. With scrollwheel of mouse you rotate forward to zoom in and backward to zoom out.
# Then you see the screen shown in '''Image 10'''. With "Save as Crop" button '''(1)''' you can save current zoom as crop. With "Edit Crop" button you can go to screen describe in next section. With "Revert Zoom" '''(3)''' you can go back to normal view.

===== Cropping Screen =====
There is also a screen where the cropping can be detected and set in more detail.

For this screen follow these steps:

# Go to "Full Menu" in top menu of MusicReader.
# Then in the "Crop" option under "Piece Functions".
# Now you see the crop screen as shown in '''Image 11'''.
# With buttons '''(1)''' you can browse through the pages of the piece. With '''(2)''' you can autodetect the cropping of the current page and '''(4)''' does this for all pages. '''(3)''' sets the cropping of current page to the full page, so actually no crop. With handles like '''(5)''' and '''(6)''' you can manually detemine the crop. Simply drag the handles.
[[File:Piece Splitter - Main Screen.png|thumb|Image 12 - Piece Splitter|458x458px]]

=== <div id="Piece Splitter">Piece Splitter</div> ===
Some file are books that consists of several pieces.

These can be splitted in the Piece Splitter functionality of MusicReader into seperate pieces.

Pieces you create here will then be added to the library.

This works as follows:

# Open the Piece from the Library.
# Then go to "Full Menu" and choose "Piece Splitter" option under "Piece Functions".
# Now you see the screen as shown in '''Image 12'''.
# [[File:Predefined Splitting Options.png|thumb|Image 13 - Predefined Splitting Options|445x445px]]Now you select the pages of single piece under '''(1)'''. They will appear in the list '''(2)'''.
# After you have added all associated pages you can set optional settings. These are indicated with '''(3)''' and '''(4)'''. One determines the folder the piece is added to and the other tells to which field the book title is copied. Both are to make it easier to find all pieces contained in this book.
# Then press the "Create Piece" button '''(5)'''.
