Q. When I draw on my script with the Apple Pencil, my lines streak or lag behind the pencil — especially while we're rolling. My colleague's iPad on the same show doesn't do it. What's going on?

Q. I used to be able to pick a previously-entered director's name from a list when tapping the DIR field on the Slate screen, but now I only get the keyboard. Did MovieSlate lose that feature? On episodic shows I switch directors constantly and retyping the name every time is slow.

Q. Something odd is happening with MovieSlate's layout. When I tap the Scene button, the panel opens in the wrong spot on screen instead of where it normally appears. Everything still works, it just looks misplaced. How do I get it back to normal?

Q. I've created several projects in MovieSlate on my iPhone. When I go to send a report, the only thing I can email is a report covering all projects — I can't find an email or share button for one individual project. How do I email a report for just one project?
