Q. I shared my lined script with another user and they can't see my coverage lines, even though I can see them on my copy. How do I make my markup visible to others — and how do I change existing annotations between public and private?

Q. Ever since the latest iPadOS update, the Script Dept tab keeps disappearing from MovieSlate. I've done Restore Purchases and it comes back, but it disappears again the next time I open the app. How do I fix this permanently?

Q. Can I use my own scene and shot numbering format in MovieSlate? My screenplay software uses a scheme like '81' for scene 8, shot 1 instead of the standard '8A' format.

Q. I have a production with pre-shoot days I want to label as Day -1 or Day -2, but I already have a Day 0 and Day 1 logged. How do I use the Search & Replace feature in MovieSlate to reassign those early shooting days to negative day numbers?

Q. I sent my annotated script to another script supervisor but they can't see any of my markup lines — only the logging data shows up. How do I fix this, and how do I control which annotations are public or private?
