ChordGrid: ignore trailing blanks of comments
#1
That the rightmost and leftmost columns of ChordGrids shall be handled as comments has been discussed in several threads, e.g.
https://www.zubersoft.com/mobilesheets/f...12880.html
https://www.zubersoft.com/mobilesheets/f...12152.html

As of 3.9.16 text in the left and right margin of ChordGrids are rendered in italic with a light blue background.
For better readability in ChordPro source files the first bar line is often aligned with blanks (sometimes unnecessarily many). In case of comment texts in the margins MobileSheets currently handles these blanks as part of the comment. This is different to the handling of blanks in margins without comment text and has some disadvantages:
1.) the maximum font size that is calculated by "Auto-Size Fonts" is unnecessarily small
2.) if the user enlarges the ChordGrid font the light blue highlighting overlaps with the first bar containing chords

Please ignore trailing blanks at the end of comment texts in ChordGrids, while calculating the font size for "Auto-Size Font" and while calculating the size of the light blue background. Thank you.
           

btw: comment in the margins of ChordGrids looks different to {c: comments, which is inconsistent. I'm not sure if I would like {c: comments highlighted also or omitting the highlighting of comments in ChordGrids. Best would be to allow the user configuring that. I'm requesting more formatting options for comments (and several other ChordPro elements) for years in many different threads.

I'll look into improving those things. Adding all of the settings you want is still on my list. Please don't think I've forgotten about it. What you've requested will be an extremely large task that I'm trying to juggle with all of the other work and requests. It's still not clear to me how many users will even utilize that level of configurability.

Ignoring trailing blanks should not be too difficult. Please try to consider it soon. It's quite inconvenient that it confuses Auto-Size.

Regarding ChordPro formatting: Sure, not all users will use everything, but the current ChordPro formatting options are definitely not enough. There are MobileSheets users out there that request more exotic features.
