The Big Redesign

We launched our biggest redesign to date, adding a top-bar, an all-new focus mode, overhauled change marks, and tons of tweaks to make your writing experience more intuitive.

Here’s what you need to know to continue writing without having to look for tools that we moved around a bit inside the app:

If you prefer video, here’s a walkthrough:

We consolidated the buttons to move between Plot Board and script view in the upper-right corner, for more intuitive access to the Plot Board:

We move the Desk-button (where you find all your scripts) to the top-left corner.

We moved the Export and Document Settings buttons out of the sidebar, into the top-bar.

It’s now always obvious which script you’re working on, from glancing at the top-bar:

We greatly improved the focus mode: You can get rid of all the toolbars with the shortcut Cmd+D or Ctrl+D to fully focus on your script. But all the toolbars will still appear if you move your mouse in their direction. You get the best of both worlds: Distraction-free interface, but access to your tools when you need it.

We completely overhauled change marks: You see immediately what changes you are highlighting (if any) in the top-bar, and can start marking changes from there. We also give you options to track by author (who did what), or revision colors (when were the changes made).

This is the broad overview to get you started, we hope you enjoy the all new editing experience!
