Beginner2 stepsMac

Before you start

  • The preview shows the pages you want.

Steps

  1. Click Save Sides.

    The note under the buttons says: Saved sides are snapshots. Later script edits don't change them.

  2. Read what appears.

    A message says Saved sides, with Undo and Dismiss. A bar above the preview reads Saved snapshot “Sides: Shoot Day 1” with its date and time, with Export PDF and Back to live preview. The sides are added to Saved sides under the Setup panel, with a Delete button.

What you get

A snapshot of the sides is saved with the day name, scene count and time.

Watch out for

  • A snapshot does not follow the screenplay. After a script revision, save new sides.
  • Click Undo in the message if you saved by mistake.
