Version Control Updates

• You can now manually create a new version of your screenplay.
• You can also see your current version at the top of your version history.
• The previous 90-day limit on version storage has been removed. Scriptor subscribers can now store versions indefinitely.

Screenplay Editor Improvements

• The active element block is now reflected in the bottom toolbar.
• Whenever you switch to a new element (from scene to action line) it will be reflected in the editor. This should be a nice visual cue for those making use of the shortcuts.

Other

• Scriptor assistant updated to use the latest OpenAI models.
• Suggested assistant actions are now clickable prompts.
• Option added in the text editor for smaller font size.

Performance Enhancements

• 80% Faster Load Times: We've transitioned away from server-side rendering for editors, significantly reducing file load times in Scriptor. This change eliminates a major pain point and aligns with our goal of friction-free screenwriting.
• Caching & Prefetching: Files now load instantly thanks to improved caching and prefetching, enabling seamless file switching.
• Better Loading Experience: Removed unnecessary loading spinners across multiple pages. Where short delays exist, we've introduced skeleton loaders for a smoother user experience.

UI Improvements

• Stateful Toast Notifications: File operations now display real-time toast notifications, providing clearer feedback on background tasks in Scriptor.

Bug Fixes

• Title Page Update Fix: Resolved an issue where title page data wouldn’t refresh when switching between screenplays.

Pinned Scenes in Screenplays

• You can now pin scenes within your scripts to remember where you left off.
• Pinned scenes stay saved across all screenplay files.
• We've added more spacing between scenes in the scene navigator for better readability.

PDF Export for Text Files

• You can now PDF export your text files in Scriptor via the file dropdown.
• Note: Alert blocks and colours are not currently supported but will be added gradually to support all styles features.

Templates

• The Character Map and Film Treatment templates have been updated within the text editor templates gallery.
