The new Story Tree view shows a hierarchical view of your story, and lets you create new sections, rearrange sections, and customize the way sections and frames are numbered.

Story TreeYou can use this view to develop an outline your production before drawing storyboard frames, or as a way to organize them once they're drawn.

The Properties view has been moved under the Story Tree, and now shows the properties for any selected element, including Frame Properties, Section Properties, and Story Properties.

Bugs fixed:

  • Movie View plays wrong with zero-duration frames.
  • Selecting text, then deleting in the Frame Text box deletes one extra character.
  • Canceling a request to save changes on File > New is the same as not saving.
  • Saving changes while opening a new file overwrites the new file.
  • If no printers are defined, gives an error message on printing and then repeats it a lot.

Known issues:

  • Some tree operations are slow. Workaround: Zoom the storyboard view out several times to speed up updating.
  • Section titles aren't included in printing.
  • The new formatting options for frame numbers aren't used in the Print dialog.
  • Tool tips show up as black rectangles sometimes. (More details welcomed!) Workaround: restart the program.
