How to place cue markers and export a cue sheet
The Cue tool turns your script into a calling script: numbered cue markers anchored to the exact word, with labels in the margin and a spreadsheet cue sheet you can export. Cues live in your personal layer, so your book stays yours.
Pick the Cue tool and set its options
Select Cue in the tool sidebar. Options appear beneath it: a Style toggle (Box or Pipe), a Margin toggle for which side the label leader runs to, and a Color palette (Black, Red, Blue, Green, Amber, Purple, Pink), handy for separating departments like lights and sound. The last color you pick sticks for new cues.
Drop a pipe marker on the exact word
With Pipe style, click between two words or at a line end. A clean vertical line drops in, snapped to the height of that text line, and the surrounding words are captured with a marker at the pipe's position, so the cue sheet later shows exactly where the cue is called.
Or draw a box around words or lines
With Box style, drag a rectangle around the words or lines the cue covers. The text under the box is captured as the cue's line the same way.
Number and describe the cue
A popover asks for the Cue number (point cues like 12.5 are fine, and prefixes like LX 4 or SFX 4 work too) and a Description (for example, "Sound: doorbell"). Confirm and the cue's label appears in the margin with a leader line back to its anchor.
Drag labels where you want them
Labels auto-stack in the margin in cue-number order, but on desktop a script manager can drag any cue's number to place it exactly, and the right-angle leader follows. Use Reset label position in the cue's edit panel to return it to auto-placement, and the label-size sliders in the right panel to tune number and description text size.
Work in the cue sheet view
Click Cue sheet in the toolbar to swap to a spreadsheet of every cue, grouped under scene and song headings from your bookmarks and ordered by position in the script. Edit the Cue and Note columns inline, and click a row's arrow to jump to that spot in the script.
Export the cue sheet as CSV
In the cue sheet header, click Export CSV. You get a spreadsheet file with Cue, Line, and Page columns plus scene divider rows, ready for a paper backup or a console operator.
Export the annotated script
Back in script view, click Download PDF to export the full script with your cue pipes, boxes, leader lines, and margin labels drawn on every page, honoring any labels you dragged.
