Good to know on Windows
- Your project is a folder named Title.openframe, by default under Documents, in OpenFrame. Network folders are refused, and a folder inside a cloud-sync service gets a warning.
- The left rail holds Home, Idea Vault, Story, Screenplay, Breakdown, Production, Call Sheets and Files. The project menu holds sharing, backups and project tools.
- Spell check uses the dictionaries installed in Windows, with a main and a second language.
