If you want more data shown in the song list, you will need to change the Title Formatting. Settings > Library Settings > Piece (or Song) Title Formatting. This allows you to control what is displayed in the title and subtitle areas for the songs.
This will only show metadata that has been added to songs in mobilesheets. And it will show all entries for a field.
To add metadata there are several options:
1. The most basic is to import a song, manually fill out some of the data in the import dialog, then finish adding metadata by editing the song. You will have to do this sometimes.
2. Use PDF bookmarks (if the PDF file has bookmarks) during import to generate songs and add some metadata for them.
3. Create a csv file. Use a spreadsheet program to fill out the metadata. The first row must have labels that mobilesheets can detect. After entering the data, the spreadsheet needs to be exported as a csv file with commas or semicolons between columns of data. I ended up making a Google sheet to make it easier for me to make a properly formatted and organized csv file. A copy can be downloaded here. https://www.zubersoft.com/mobilesheets/f...-8745.html
Once the csv file has been used to generate songs with metadata, the csv file is irrelevant to mobilesheets. Any changes to the csv file will not show up in mobilesheets unless the songs are deleted and reimported. The import dialog box does show the mapping for the csv file columns to the mobilesheets fields so you can check it.
4. If you have your individual song pdf files in an organized directory structure, you can use the 'Populate Metadata from Directories' option in the batch import.
Once the songs (and data) are imported to mobilesheets, the only ways the change the data are via the song editor or by deleting and reimporting.
