We've been using Proclaim for close to a year now, and it's been a great tool. But today I was trying to set up a responsive reading of part of Psalm 107, and I'm finding it very frustrating: issues with trying to have some verses in italics, and others not, and the scrolling getting away from me, numerous times. The way I'm describing it probably makes it sound kind of trivial, but... the frustration isn't trivial. Is there an automated feature in Proclaim for doing responsive readings that I'm not aware of?
- Some people use the 'Emphasize text' feature to mark the leader/respondent text. It is the last icon on the text toolbar when editing a content field.
- How would you like it automated? An option to auto-highlight/emphasize alternate verses after inserting a whole passage? Labels? I didn't find it too hard to emphasize alternate verses on a Bible slide for Ps 107, and even tried doing an indent paragraph on the response readings. (Though we appear to have a first-line-indent bug there...)
- Bob, thanks for getting back to me. I finally figured out a fix. I think part of my problem was that I trying to use the Bible option for "Add Item," and I eventually decided it would be easier to just copy and paste the passages I wanted, and then format them the way I want. Thanks for the response..
