Scaling Text Issue On Confidence Monitor

Seeking advice from those who have successfully implemented chord charts on confidence monitors using Proclaim. I am struggling with the formatting of text/font size. I'm not sure how Proclaim scales the text.




For reference, I've attached an image. No matter how much text is available, it only extends approximately 75% of the slide (why scale down and leave black space on the right?).




This is not the result of other slides having too much text. In other words, regardless of the amount of text on a slide, it scales down as illustrated.




It's not an issue of the template not extending edge-to-edge, either. A screenshot of the template being used is also included.

    Hi Nathan,

    Proclaim scales your lyrics to fit in the confidence monitor, and it looks to me like you've bumped up against the vertical boundary. If we were to use that space to the right of the lyrics, the text would stretch horizontally without getting any bigger.

    This is one side effect of adding chords to the confidence monitor: you take half the space your lyrics can use and give it to chords, so when you try to show the same amount of lyrics as before you may end up with a smaller font size. You could try removing the first lyric preview box and making your lyrics bigger, or showing fewer lyrics at a time.
