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?

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?

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?

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?

Q. How do I delete a snippet from my snippets list? Manually entered snippets are treated the same as the ones MovieSlate finds automatically, right?

Q. I generated a Facing Page but it still shows information I changed (or erased) — like an old camera description. How do I edit the Facing Page itself?

Q. After I scan pages from a new script PDF, I'm seeing leftover scenes from a previous script mixed in with the new ones. Why, and how do I get a clean breakdown?

Q. Can a script supervisor use just the shot-notes/logging features and turn around an ALE/XML report without using MovieSlate's clapperboard slate — for example on a production that uses a traditional analog slate?

Q. I tried to add a new Scene D and drag it into place between Scene C and Scene E, but it won't move. How do I add a scene and put it where it belongs in my breakdown?

Q. I need to go back into a previous episode to fix something in its breakdown, then return to the episode I'm currently shooting. As long as I haven't deleted the old project, how do I switch between them?
