second monitor is connected and set up as your extended desktop in Windows
then this will display the output from VizPraise. You are now ready to start

How To
Create a Playlist
When the program first starts up, it automatically starts with a new empty
playlist. If at any point you wish to go back to an empty playlist click “NEW
PLAYLIST” . To add items to the playlist double click an item in one of the
picker windows or type its name in the box at the top of the Word Picker
window and then double click the item. To save your playlist for later use,
click Save Playlist Save As.
Search for Songs
On the Word picker click ADD, you can then select the relevant folder,
which has the songs in. When you have several folders in the top section of
the Picker you can select which one/s to display by ticking/unticking the box
on the left. The Word picker window incorporates a search facility to make
locating songs easier. Simply type part of the song into the textbox and
VizPraise will find it for you, or if you click on the song list you can also
type and VizPraise will move to those words in the list. The search results
can be added to the playlist in the same way as any other item in the picker
window by double clicking. To clear the search results and go back to the
file list simply delete any text you have entered or click “ALL”.
Display songs on the output screen
To start the playlist at the beginning, press the play icon on the
toolbar. To start at a specific song, click on that song in the
playlist and then click “PLAY”. Tip: If you press the pause button
before play, you can get ready, but keep the output blank until the
appropriate time. If you have Projector Control you can use that
instead of the pause button to turn the display ON or Off.
Once a song is displayed, you can see on the operator view that the
first line is highlighted, and the amount of the song that is visible to
the audience is lightly highlighted. You can click on any line with the
mouse, to highlight it, and move the audiences view if appropriate, so
that that line becomes the centre of their view. You can also move up
and down with the cursor keys, which is recommended as it is faster
and more accurate. If you keep the line that is being sung or about to be
sung highlighted, then the software will make sure that audience always see
the best possible part of the song. When a verse change occurs, you can use
the number keys to select the verse (up to 9), and you can use the C key to
select the chorus.
Create a new song
Bring up the Editor Window by clicking window | editor, to bring up an
empty song editor window. Type the words of the song into the window (or
cut and paste them from another application), leaving a blank line
between each section (verse or chorus). To mark the type of the section use
the buttons at the top of the editor window: The button labelled V
indicates a verse, C a chorus. When you have finished, save the file by
clicking File | Save.

which has the Power Point Presentation in. When you have several folders in
the top section of the Picker you can select which one/s to
display by ticking/unticking the box on the left. Double click the
Presentation to add to the playlist. The programme will handle the
timings or sound within the presentation. You can also change slide/
animation by clicking the buttons or change slide by clicking the slide in the
