I have the need to create multi-column song slides for songs that have male and female parts. I couldn't figure out how to do this in Proclaim. Anyone have any ideas how I could build the attached image as a Proclaim Song? Or is this one I would have to do as a generic content item? The problem is that it will take multiple slides to make this happen, and I'm not sure how inconvenient it will be to re-use and move this around.

    I got this working, but the results are a little weird. I can't get seem to get the lyrics to look quite the same in both text boxes.

    Song lyrics will shrink their font to fit as well as they don’t wrap. Normal field don’t. So you’ll need to make the font a little smaller or adjust the layout of the lyrics so they don’t need to shrink

    This Song in the form of a choral duet: YOU ARE HOLY (PRINCE OF PEACE) / MICHAEL W. SMITH (Marc Imboden/Tammi Rhoton) Imboden Music/Martha Jo Music, ASCAP is a serious challenge to my formatting routine! I follow the standard of commercial Karaoke, so the Chorus alone as I'd format it would occupy five slides, starting with, in alternating cyan and magenta lines: I will sing___ to__ and___ wor - ship You are Lord of Lords, You are King of Kings, The___ Lamb___ Who__ is___ wor - thy, You are migh - ty God, Lord of ev' - ry - thing, with the homophonic You're the Prince of Peace And I will live my life For You in green. OtOH, I can repeat each line once on the Verse, in alternating cyan and magenta: You are holy You are holy You are mighty You are mighty in four slides.
