3.1.2 Song Format

Song format is REALLY IMPORTANT when adding a song or editing a song. Make sure that you keep proper song format. If the song format will not be kept, it may not show the song properly and may cause program to crash.

Stanza Title.
Each stanza must have a stanza title. SoftProjector support three different stanza titles: Verse Block, Refrain Block and Slide Block (listed below). Stanza titles can be either in English or Russian and must start from a beginning of a new line and must be capitalized.  After the stanza title (on the same line), a stanza number or any text can be entered.

Verse Block. Block for song verses.
Verse, &Verse
Куплет, &Куплет
Refrain Block. Will be automatically shown after each verse block and will not be shown after slide block. If there is more than one refrain block, then the second refrain block will replace the first one when it gets to it.
Chorus, &Chorus, Refrain, &Refrain,
Припев, &Припев
Slide Block. This stanza block is for stanzas that is other than verse or refrain. It will be shown only once and refrain block will not follow automatically after. If refrain block is needed after slide block, please add it manual.
Slide, Insert, Intro, Ending,
Вставка, Вступление, Окончание

Special Stanza Blocks
Verse block and refrain block, each have special continuing block. Sometime a verse or refrain is too large to put it into a one slide, adding & to next verse/refrain block will solve the problem. An "&" sing in front of verse/refrain title means that it is part of the block above it and the two block will act as one. See examples below.
