Insert Above/Below indexing is off

Feature Request

I currently have LRC files (provided) which have timestamp lines with empty text intentionally, as it separates verses. For example, see below:

[00:28.72]Welcome to your life
[00:33.05]There's no turning back
[00:37.35]Even while we sleep
[00:41.60]We will find you
[00:43.86]
[00:43.86]Acting on your best behaviour

…

Currently, it seems verse integrity is not maintained (e.g., no option to keep empty space in the enhanced word LRC file). All good, I figure this can be a future feature.

However, when trying to re-insert it myself in the UI, the indexing is off. When I select the line above, and try to insert below, it inserts it at the index it states it will insert after, rather than where it should go.

For instance, when trying to re-insert in that above verse scenario:

  1. Index on the UI is Line 4 (1-based index)

  2. UI states it will insert after Line 4

  3. When putting in the timestamp 00:43.86, it inserts it at Line 4 rather than after.

This probably is an issue if you’re considering your empty placeholder line in the indexing schema.

    Hi Rob,

    Thanks for your feature request and the helpful discussion. We’ve fixed the index offset issue. You can now also adjust the section spacing using the Section Spacing button shown in the image below. Please let me know if you have any other questions!

    Hi Rob, thanks for reaching out.

    Did you select the “include” button when insert the blank line, it will insert the correct index as I tested. However, the index is off when “include” unselected. I will see how to fix it.

    Update:

    Able to use tags/metadata to separate these in my own schema. However, I think it would still be useful to have some sort of preservation/enhancement for newline separation of the sections :)

    Perhaps for integrity a blank/newline could be put? Or configurable via [verse] tags or something like that. Open to ideas.

      I think configurable via [verse] tags is a good idea, so you can set blank lines for all section tags at once. But also, I will fix the index off issue, so you can insert text or blank line whereever you want.

    Additionally, when I select the wrongly inserted blank space, it doesn’t even select it, and will highlight Line 6 (in this scenario)
