A whole world.One panel at a time.

Let the script read like a script.

Write on a familiar script page, with panel descriptions and numbered, labeled elements. Keep page thumbnails in the sidebar and script statistics at the top.

Think in panels. Write in color.

Color-coded cards distinguish dialogue, captions, narration, sound effects and action. Collapse elements, set a panel’s shot and slugline, and move through page thumbnails without losing the big picture.

Two views. One panel.

See the same panel in Modern and Classic at once. Work with the structure of cards while keeping the flow of the script beside it.

Your pages, at a glance.

Color-coded story beats and page summaries turn your script into an outline. Panel-layout miniatures, tags, word counts and script totals help you see the shape of the whole issue.

Give every page a dramatic job.

Open a page card to choose its dramatic function, such as Inciting Incident, write a planning summary and add scene tags. The planning summary stays separate from the script.

Panel, character, dialogue and word statistics update from your script. Panel descriptions and dialogue are drawn from what you have already written.

Pull back. See the connections.

Colored cards hold your page summaries and links to the script. Browse the act-and-scene folder hierarchy, search the board and adjust the zoom to find the right perspective.

Not every thought starts as a page.

Choose Page, Blank, Idea, Note, Character, Location, Story Beat or To Do. Connect a card to a script page with the Linked Script Page selector.

Add a title, an optional subtitle and a synopsis. Keep the idea on the board until you are ready to write it into the story.

Remember exactly what you meant.

An element note carries the quoted text and its page, panel and element context—even the dialogue number. See dates and Open or Resolved counts, then navigate back to the script.

Keep the revision in context.

Color-code panel notes and use color filters to find the ones you need. Track Open and Resolved totals, review dates and return to the relevant panel.

A darker space for the story.

Emphasize the active panel against a black background. Adjust brightness, make text smaller or larger, and use page navigation with the current page in view.

Settle into charcoal.

Keep the active panel prominent in a charcoal appearance. Brightness and text-size controls let you adjust the view as you move from page to page.

A softer-colored canvas.

Use the light sepia appearance with surrounding content dimmed. Tune brightness and text size, then keep writing one panel at a time.

A deep brown backdrop.

The dark brown appearance keeps the active panel in emphasis. Page navigation, brightness and text-size controls remain close at hand.

Keep it light and clear.

Choose a white appearance with the active panel emphasized. Adjust the brightness and text size while keeping your place in the script.

Find the words you want to change.

Choose All Text, Characters, Locations or Notes, enter your find and replacement text, and work in Script scope. Case and Whole Word matching help narrow the search; Replace All applies the change across matches.
