Settings
Project settingsProject settings include the title, canvas size, project info, the script details for your title page, and the scene numbering mode. Here is what each does and where to open it.OverviewCanvas size and presetsPick a preset or a custom size when you create the project, and change it later in Project settings. Existing shots keep their positions; nothing is rescaled.TaskProject infoProject info is a free-text note in Project settings, up to 2000 characters, that prints at the top of your script. Importing a script drops its title block here.ConceptScene numbering: Automatic or ManualAutomatic numbers your scenes by their order. Manual keeps the number you give each one, such as 46A, so it stays put when scenes move around.Concept
Access
Sharing vs publishing: which do I need?Share decides who can open the live project. Publish makes a separate read-only page of it. Use Share to work with people, Publish to show finished work. Publishing is for personal projects only.OverviewAccess levels explained: Can edit, Can comment, Can view, No accessFour levels decide what a person can do in a shared project. The creator always edits; everyone else gets the project's default or a personal override.ConceptAnyone with the link: off, can view, or can commentThe Anyone with the link row in Share project decides what a person who isn't listed can do with the project link: nothing, view it, or view and comment.TaskDefault access for everyone at your workspaceOn a workspace project, the Everyone at your workspace row sets the level every member gets unless they have a personal override.TaskInvite someone to edit (Studio Plan)Editing together is a workspace feature.

Resend or Revoke it from the menu at the end of the row.ConceptPer-person overridesGive one workspace member a different level from the rest: add them by name in Share project and pick a level. The override beats the workspace default until you remove it.TaskRemove someone's accessIn Share project, open the person's row. Remove guest takes a guest off, Remove override returns a teammate to the workspace default, and Revoke cancels an invite. Nothing asks for confirmation.Task
