I wrote an extensive article about Why you should use Guitar Pro 8 here, but I will show you how you can use it to play guitar chords here.

Chord Function
You find the chord function here:
And it looks like this:
Just type in the chord that you want to see and it gives you a lot of suggestions.

Guitar Pro 8 will mark the bar in red if the beats don’t align with the count:
If you don’t know any rhythmic notation at all, there is some figuring out involved for you, but it WILL pay off and make you a rhythm pro fairly soon.
It’s a great way to learn to play rhythm guitar if you’re on your own.

And here is your massive shortcut:
You can simply copy paste your chord shape. Just mark it like this by either using the mouse or the shift+arrow keys:
Press CTRL+C and then select where you want to insert the chord and press CTRL+V. (or CMD+C/V on Mac)
