Song font size changes affect everywhere they're used

September 29, 2020
We are running our main WE from a projector in our sanctuary and a second in our overflow room on a large screen TV. Both are running on Macs. The problem is that the font size that works for songs (only) in the sanctuary is way too small on the TV in the overflow. I tried copying the cue and making it an "overflow" version of the same service but as soon as I change the song font size in one it changes in the other, and doesn't solve the problem. Any ideas?

Two options:

1) You can set the resolution for your secondary screen in both locations to the same resolution. The font sizes appear different if the resolutions are different.

2) Create two templates (Songs > Templates), one for the sanctuary and one for the overflow. Then use the new template override feature in version 2020.4 to set a template for each room. You can use the same songs, you'll just need to create different cue lists.

The template override setting is in the cue settings for the song.

Thank you Adam! The solution for us was #2, utilizing the template override feature. It works perfectly now in both locations. Just a side note: WE songs and bible verses were the only slides needing to have a font size change. Everything else came over identical on both projectors, using different Macs without applying a template override.
