Topic: I have a suggestion that may be useful.

First off, I have to say I absolutely love this site.  Thanks for making such a fantastic resource free.  The chord transposer is just beyond useful.   Anyway, my post has something to do with the transposer in kind of a weird way.  Generally, when I look up a song I will transpose it to a few different tunings to see what one fits my voice the best, then I will add it to my songbook.  Well, here is the suggestion.

Sometimes, after adding the song to the songbook, I will decide that another tuning actually works a bit better.  My suggestion is to add a button that allows you to "Update song with current tuning".  I think this would be extremely useful.

Thanks, and keep up the FANTASTIC work.

Re: I have a suggestion that may be useful.

hi and welcome to the chordie forum and site

I agree with what you say. A few times I have done what you have just described.
I had to delete it out my songbook then go to the song, transpose it agan into a differet tuning then add it again. What you suggest would be very useful for people like me that cannot make their minds up first time,lol

It is a good idea. I will look at it.

This is now implemented. If you go to a song in your songbook, the tuning will automatically be updated if you change it.
