31 Q. Does MovieSlate produce a separate lunch report, or where do my meal break times show up? Posted 06/26/2026 Script Dept
32 Q. I'm running MovieSlate and Scriptation side by side on my iPad. I can copy a PDF annotation in Scriptation, but it won't paste into MovieSlate. I'm sure this used to work — what's going on? Posted 06/26/2026 Script Dept
33 Q. I'd rather not keep paying a monthly subscription just to use the Script Dept (script supervisor) features. Can I buy MovieSlate Pro once instead and still get Script Dept? Posted 06/26/2026 Sales
34 Q. My Progress Report is totaling roughly twice what I actually shot — for example I shot 13 setups (A through N) but the report says 26, or my scene count is doubled. Where is the extra count coming from? Posted 06/25/2026 Script Dept
35 Q. When I line my script, the coverage bubble used to print the scene and take number (like 20C/2), but now it's printing the timecode instead. It started when I switched to two cameras. Does that mean I can't line the script in a multicam project? Posted 06/25/2026 Script Dept
36 Q. How do I configure a field to only use the snippets from a list I create? Posted 06/24/2026 Documentation
37 Q. Will MovieSlate run on the Apple Silicon Macs? Posted 06/24/2026 General

39 Q. When I play music from MovieSlate through my speakers from my iPhone or iPad, the sound quality is poor or there's a noticeable delay. How can I fix it? Posted 06/24/2026 General
40 Q. When I try to open a document in a Pane, I see a "Document not set" error, or it won't open in a Pane at all — only in a Tab. Why, and how do I work around it? Posted 06/24/2026 Script Dept
