Wondering if there could be a way to show the page number for hymns on the title screen, but remove the page # from the following screens (no # on the verses/chorus screens)

    Try looking at options in the "show credits" control

    I think if you select "Show credits on title slide," you'll get the author, copyright, and other info. That doesn't sound like what Jonathan is trying to do. I would do this: (1) Don't put anything in the field reserved for hymn number. When you have something in that field, it shows up on the title slide and on the verses/chorus slides (and on the final slide is you "Show credits on final slide"). So clear that field to prevent anything from appearing on all slides. (2) Go to your title slide and add a text box. Then type in Hymn #xxx and position the text box where you want it to be on the title slide. That text box should not appear on any other sides until you right click on it and select "Show on All Slides." Note: You do want to be sure that the title slide is the active slide in the preview section (the right third of your screen). If a verse slide were to be the active slide when you add the text box, the box will appear on the verse slide. By the same token, if you are showing credits on the final slide and want to repeat the hymn number on that slide, just scroll down until the final slide is the active slide in the preview section and add a text box. Then add "Hymn xxx" to that text box. Hope this helps!

    That would work Susi - I am trying to use Proclaim as a text generator for our Video Stream and don't need the Hymn # on every slide. I could create two song slides and only put the # in the first slide, but I was hoping this could be a suggestion for a "Checkbox" item instead of a either/or item. Make the Hymn number similar to the items as Graham was suggesting to look into.
