Blackout between titles
Instead of the blackout button (not very practical) or inserting a blank title between each surtitle (tedious, and takes up useful screen space), a better way to manage silences during performances would be two different keys to control the output.
For example: «o» key would do what the arrow key does now, switch to the next surtitle (for fast-paced moments) and «p» key would remove current surtitle (projecting a blank screen) and, when pressed again, switch to the next surtitle (for text with pauses). This way you could insert blanks when needed in the performance AND switch to the next surtitle using a single key.

Good idea. Maybe the o and p keys aren't the best choice. Ideally, this could be user-configurable. Also, the blackout feature is set with a slight fade. This also should be user-configurable, whether it be with the hand symbol or using keys as suggested here.
I have to say, that even though things can always be better (and it is nice to be able to make suggestions), it is a real pleasure to work with Glypheo. Thank you for your work.
