Feature request - View to show lyrics and chords together

Please can VST Live provide a view that combines both lyrics and chords together, in much the way as a chord tab sheet would.

This is different from what is currently available, as that is tied in to a midi track and is syncing lyrics and chords, showing only the current bars. What I’m after is more a static page view that allows me to enter lyrics like a text editor, and then place the chords above them, so that the chord is tied to the word position.

A mashup of the PDF Viewer and Chords track would be nice. Keep the page turning capabilities via midi, and have the ability to transpose chords to a different key. Also, allow the chords to have a different font/colour/size from the lyrics.

Thank you for your consideration.

I highly suppport this feature request. And please make it possible to decide where you want have a new line. If you’re using Midifiles where every syllable is a seperate lyrics entry, the current lyrics view is completely useless. VST Live is then showing every syllable in a new line, which makes it impossible to read it.
I would highly appreciate this, because this is currently the only thing that keeps me away from using VST Live. I would love to use it, because every other feature (midi, plugin, backing track integration) is perfect for my usecase.

Thank you for your consideration.
