Double-bar lines are best used between song sections.
You should know, they often generate a cymbal crash.
They are also needed to terminate a “break”.

Helpful info:
S and N (Small/Normal chord-font size)

I had to use S & N to ‘fit’ the form into the end as there seemed to be a limit on how many characters my iPad could show and I didn’t want to sacrifice other areas to shorten it.

Laugh Laugh has a TON of drum fills over the chorus and I guess I was trying to emulate that. I used Bossa for the verses but couldn’t figure out how to express the change from that rhythm to a pop/rock rhythm in the chorus.
 
Except for specific player styles (eg. Latin/swing, Bossa/swing, swing two-four)
You can not currently select/specify different player styles within a song.

There are also some styles (Latin: Cuba: Cha Cha Cha comes to mind) that may change the “feel” in B sections or some form-repeats)

The small font can reduce overlapping of chords. It does not affect the number of spaces on a page. Current limit: 16 spaces per system (line) and 12 systems per page. It’s best utilized to improve readability in specific limited situations, particularly chords positioned in adjacent spaces.

Please don’t include lyrics on charts posted in the forums.
A few words to indicate specific sections on the chart or a simple “reminder” phrase just to get you started would likely be ok.
