Now I dont know how this is going to look, but still try and see and send a picture of your script to see if there is any errors.

I see @Farah_DeSantis gave you advice here:

!please help thx

I tested your scene - I dont have your background So I am not sure what are you trying to achive or where is the problem but I noticed several small mistakes you should use & when you place characters on start of the scene. if you use @ they will pop up one after another. You might not see it in preview but it will be so in the app. you didnt layered your characters so there are small infront of big you spotted twice CHLOE but you didnt spotted ABUELA. I guess the first line should be…

Did you follow her advice?

You didn’t spot ABUELA in the scene either, this was already mentioned by Farah.

@CHLOE spot 0.698 18 212 in zone 1 AND ABUELA faces right <— should be ABUELA, not CHLOE

Use layers:

HOW TO: Move Characters / Overlays to the Layers

Moving to the layers means something or someone can be in front or behind character or overlay. You can use as many numbers as you want: -100 to 100 (probably even more) CHARACTERS: Commands: @CHARACTER moves to layer # @CHARACTER spot % X Y in zone # at layer # [image] This picture is an example to show how numbers working. Entering characters (@CHARACTER enters from left to screen right) are always in front of everything (unless you move other characters or overlays to the layers) If …

Example (bolded):

@Kayla_episode1

&YOU spot 0.643 68 228 in zone 1 at layer 3 AND YOU faces right

INT. BABY SCAN - DAY with BABY FOOT SWADDLE
@overlay BABY FOOT SWADDLE shifts to 107 210 in zone 1
@overlay BABY FOOT SWADDLE scales to 0.474 0.474

You can just write this like:

INT. BABY SCAN - DAY with BABY FOOT SWADDLE to 0.474 107 210 in zone 1 at layer #

#= would be a number

Go to Show Helpers, Then go to Spot Directing and then go to Change Overlay. Move your overlay around and change its size, entering those new coordinates in.

@Melani3

On the right-hand side of the previewer you will see a new button called “Line-By-Line Mode”. Clicking on this button will activate this mode and change several buttons on the screen green, like so:

In this mode the previewer will pause at script lines rather than speech lines. The green buttons show that this feature is active and which buttons have updated functionality.

Clicking through the story and tapping on the < 1line, << 10lines or >> 10lines buttons will now move by script lines rather than dialog lines.

To see this in action check out Default mode on the left and Line-By-Line on the right.

To deactivate this mode and return the previewer to playing normally just click the green “Default Play Mode” button. You can switch between these modes at any time while you are previewing your script.

Wanted to add this ^^

This happens when you don’t set your scene properly

But this should work:

&zoom on 24 110 to 127% in 0
&YOU spot 0.643 68 228 in zone 1 AND YOU faces right
