Make an action line yours: tap it while checking lines (or press and hold it in Mark mode and choose Make this mine) to highlight an effort, reaction or sound your character performs. It stays an action line, in your character's color, and the arrows jump to it too.
The fix sheet can also turn an action line into dialogue, or dialogue into an action line.
Fixed: My scripts, Download a backup, Check and fix lines, and Characters and colors in the live-view menu did nothing on some Android tablets.
If something unexpected goes wrong, a message now appears on screen so it can be reported.
Version 1.1
Notes now show right on the page, in a box beside the line with the note type in its corner. Tap a box to edit it.
Drag stamps, notes and rewritten lines anywhere on the page in Mark mode. A note or rewrite you moved can be put back beside its line.
New stamps: Excited, plus a new Intensity group with More intense and Less intense.
A home button next to the menu in live view takes you straight back to My scripts.
Edit the script title in the Characters step if it wasn't read correctly.
Backups save through the share sheet on phones and tablets (Save to Files, Drive, AirDrop).
Updates now reach devices that already have RoleMarker saved for offline use.
Tidier Characters step: the "Merge into" menus are all the same width and the "Also called" box fits its hint.
Version 1
The first release.
Load a text PDF or a Soundwright backup. Soundwright backups are laid out exactly like Soundwright's PDF export, so page, scene and line numbers match.
Highlight up to six characters, each in its own color. Group lines (MATT, LISA, JAY · JAY / MATT · SULLY & MILLARD · ALL · BOTH) and side-by-side dual dialogue light up for everyone who says them, striped when more than one of your characters shares the line.
Optional lighter highlights on action and scene lines that mention your characters, with extra names you add for each one.
Check and fix lines: tap any line that was read wrong and choose who says it, or mark it as not dialogue.
Live view: the page stays exactly as written while marks sit on top. Read mode for scrolling safely, Mark mode for marking up.
Double-tap to underline, again for a squiggly underline, again to remove it. Drag the handles to stretch an underline over more words.
Press and hold for stamps (slower, faster, louder, softer, sad, happy, angry, shocked, flat, beat, pause, breath) and for notes in the margin: your own, the director's, and pronunciations with a "sounds like" field.
Rewrite a line when the director changes it. The original stays visible, struck through.
Undo and redo, jump to your next or previous line, go to any scene or page, and pinch to zoom.
Dark pages for dim booths, a screen that stays awake in live view, and full offline use once the app has loaded.
Keeps up to five scripts in your browser. Download a backup of any script with all of its marks, and open it again on any device.
