Table of contents

Once you’ve created and saved a song, quiz, exercise, or similar, this item will be listed in the table of contents. It is also the place where the content is organized. To keep an overview, you can sort, search and favor your content.

The table of contents can always be opened via the ‘Folder’ menu or a click on the item’s name on the feature screen.

Note: It is always worth taking a look at the settings. There are true treasures slumbering. For example:

Table of content mode

If the Table of content mode is active, the screen ‘Table of contents’ is opened before the feature itself. There you can select one of the stored items to open the item with the feature. If we take the songbook as an example. With the ‘Table of contents’ mode activated, the ‘Table of contents’ of the songbook is shown if you start the songbook. There you can select a song and the Songbook is started to show the song. If you go ‘Back’ from the songbook, the ‘Table of contents’ is shown again. With the ‘Table of contents’ mode deactivated, the songbook is started immediately with the last song. To open the ‘Table of contents’, you have to use the ‘Folder’ menu.
