Confidence display flexibility

I'm currently looking into worship presentation software to evaluate alternatives to ProPresenter. For the most part, Proclaim seems to easily outpace the other options in terms of design and usability (we don't need many of the fancy features that ProPresenter provides, would just like something that consistently works well...), and so far the only critical pieces it seems to be missing for our uses are more flexible confidence display settings.

For better or worse, our worship team is tied to the stage display feature of ProPresenter, in particular using the "notes" section for each slide to hold the chord progressions for the given section. We project the slide lyrics and notes, as well as a couple timers and the upcoming lyrics, on the stage/confidence display. Because there's more content on the stage display, we also need to use the custom formatting options (e.g., font and placement of items) to maximize the display real estate for those uses.

As far as I can tell, there's no way to achieve this with the Proclaim software. Is there any chance of a feature like per-slide confidence display notes and confidence display formatting customization coming to Proclaim in the future that I can keep an eye out for?

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback Will. We have some future plans for the confidence output enhancements like allowing a timer that spans multiple service items used to track the time a speaker has for their "section" of the service. It would be helpful to see a visual example or two of what you're doing today with ProPresenter. Screenshots of the main lyrics output and the corresponding notes sections.

The way we use ProPresenter's stage display is pretty similar to their example from their iPad app documentation (attached), except we're projecting it as a second monitor on the back wall of the worship center. We don't use the message part ("wrap it up - we're out of time") but the layout is otherwise very similar: lyrics and next slide lyrics on top, chords underneath, timers on the bottom.

The main lyrics output in this case would just be the "I have a Savior, He died for me" section, and the next slide would just show "In cruel anguish on Calv'ry's tree." on the main display.
