I would like to propose a new method of laying out the lyrics on slides. The way our slides are designed has the lyrics centered with a black box behind them. I've set them up right now using a theme that centers everything and limits the area of the lyrics and a plugin that adds some css to create the black box, but it causes some problems with how the text of some songs gets laid out. I'd like to have the width of the box be flexible within certain limitations and I think using CSS3's flexbox layout can help. I've hacked up a basic example here with some wild colors to help visualize where the elements are: http://rehack.me/demos/openlp_flexbox.html. I see that there is an engine that computes how much can fit on one slide and the splits as needed, and I'm not sure how that would need to work with this. It could probably just compute how much would fit within the maximum constraints (would need to understand css % units) and then split based on that. This would make our slides a whole lot nicer, I don't know how it would affect people with other setups. I'm hoping to get some feedback and refine this more so that everyone's slides can be better!<br>
