MobileSheets and MobileSheetsPro v2.0.5 have been released. This version contains a great number of bug fixes, especially on Windows, along with a few enhancements. One problem that was brought to my attention recently was difficulty with reordering setlists in the Windows 10 version. After a great deal of research and experimentation, I came to the conclusion that there are bugs in the Microsoft's framework that don't seem to have a workaround. I found that the first time I tried to reorder a song after switching to the setlist screen, I couldn't move the song unless I waited around 5-6 seconds for something in Microsoft's code to finish loading. All drag and drop operations were fine after that. So I decided to provide alternative methods of reordering on the setlist screen. You can now click or tap on a number next to a song, and enter a new position for the song and it will be moved there instantly (available on both the main library screen and group editor). You can also enable reorder arrows in the dropdown at the top right of the screen. Those arrows can be tapped to move a song one position up or down. Hopefully these additions will make it easier to reorder songs without having to rely solely on drag & drop.
Another great addition in this update is the ability to zoom when viewing songs in the two page display mode. You can now pinch zoom either page to perform a fast low quality zoom (the same type used in the annotations editor). While zoomed in, you can pan the page using a single finger. You must fully zoom back out before you are allowed to turn pages. A two finger tap can be used to zoom out instantly. In the near future, I'm going to be adding additional zoom settings for the single page display that will make it easier to zoom in and out quickly for users who don't want to persist their zoom settings.

See the full list of changes below:
Changes made to both versions (Android & Windows 10):
- Added support for zooming in the two page display. Only one page can be zoomed at a time and page turns are disabled until the page is zoomed back out (a two finger tap will clear the zoom immediately).
- Added new reorder feature for manually sorted lists. Tap the number next to a song to edit its position. This works for setlists on the main library screen and all group types in the group editor.
- Added "Reset Next Link" touch, pedal and smart button actions to set which link point will be triggered next when using the "Activate Next Link or Go to Next Page" pedal action.
- Added new pedal actions to turn two pages forward or back
- Fixed bug when using the "Save Files to PC" option in the companion application to save multiple files at once
- A warning is now shown if trying to exit the app when connected to another device.
- Filters saved on the setlist editor screen are now correctly carried over to the main screen
- Fixed bug that would cause the wrong song to be shown when annotating a song in a setlist that is manually sorted with descending sort order
- Fixed bug with trying to move a very small circle annotation (a dot) that would result in it being resized instead
- Fixed issue with displaying a large number of lines in a popup notes dialog. The text is now scaled to fit the screen.
- Fixed bugs with saving and restoring the keywords and custom fields on the additional filters dialog
- Fixed bug with lines sometimes not showing up correctly at the beginning of pages in chord pro documents
- Fixed bug that could cause cropped image files not to load correctly

Changes made to MobileSheets on Windows 10:
- Added reorder arrows to the group editor to help with reordering as an alternative to drag and drop

- The toolbar at the top of the annotations editor will now correctly adjust based on the available screen width
- Fixed bug that could cause the OK button to be hidden when entering large amounts of text into the song notes dialog.
- Fixed bugs with the a-b loop markers in the audio player. wma files will now correctly loop
- Fixed embedded PDF annotations when exporting songs to more accurately match the annotations in MobileSheets
- MobileSheets will now correctly respond to the display scaling in Windows changing while the app is running
- Fixed bugs with restoring older MobileSheets backup files
