Hello, is it possible to display the diagram of certain difficult-to-remember guitar chords (not their names) next to or above the lyrics in a text file? I haven't found any tutorials or demos about this on youtube.

Thanks

At the moment, no, although you could use the annotations feature to place a guitar chord diagram and insert dots on the frets as needed. However, there are several plans for this:

1) With chord pro files, I am going to support chord diagrams. I was planning on adding this with 3.9.0, but it will be added with one of the updates following 3.9.0. This will most likely be the best option.
2) I may add a custom chord diagram annotations tool with 3.10.0, depending on how difficult this will be to implement

You could also create your own chord diagrams outside MobileSheets, then import them as custom stamp annotations and place them in your files as needed. Just be aware that using annotations with text and chord pro files isn't the best as the files are dynamically laid out, and changes to the text display settings can change the layout and cause annotations to no longer be positioned correctly.

Thanks for the feedback, if text files are not ideal, what would be the best solution to implement this future possibility.

Chord pro files are ideal, and there are tools out there to convert text files to chord pro if you have chords over lyrics. This is an example of one: https://ultimate.ftes.de/
