Markup, Text, Images

In addition to the various film-specific items, Scenario offers more generic tools to create your plans on a Diagram.

Markup

Markup is a single layer that sits on top of the Diagram, allowing you to annotate and illustrate as if you were drawing on paper.

• Toggle Markup on at any time with the button in the top left Quick Items, or with the M key

• Markup offers these tools:

  • Marker - a thick drawing tool

  • Pen - a thin drawing tool

  • Rectangle - a resizable box

  • Ellipse - a resizable circle

  • Line - straight line between points

  • Arrow - line, with an arrow head

  • Eraser - draw over other items to remove them

  • Select - choose items to modify

• Once you’ve selected an item, you can change its:

  • Color

  • Line thickness

  • Line style – solid, dashed, dotted

Text

Use the T key or drag from Quick Items to add a text box.

• When selected, double-click/press-hold, or hit the Enter key to edit the text

• Once you’re editing, the bottom actions bar displays a set of formatting controls, which apply to the highlighted section of text (or to what’s typed next):

  • Color - set colors for Text and Highlight

    • These are different from the Stroke and Fill colors that appear when NOT in text-editing mode, which control all text color (overwriting any previous colors), and text box background (which does NOT overwrite highlight)

  • Text size - choose among five font sizes

  • Bold, Italic, Underline, Strikethrough - toggle on and off

  • Bulleted/Numbered List - toggle on and off

  • Text justification - choose left, center, right

Text formatting also applies to any Diagram item with a label. See Diagrams for more details.

Images

Click the image icon or use the I key to open the file picker, or choose an image from your device.

• Images can be resized and rotated
