A simple tutorial for your first visit

“I was rather lost on how to use StoryFlow. I think a simple tutorial or more intuitive nav system would help me a great deal. It’s a bit of a tyranny of choice with all the options, and until I understand how to use them, I remain unsure where to look or how to get started.”

Say what each color in the Flow stands for

“I understood the thickness of the ribbons, but wasn’t sure what the different colors represented regarding my script.”

Show how the Advisor’s modes work on your own script

“The ‘Auto’ area and the buttons beneath it appear like they could be the most helpful things for me. When I looked at Amadeus it started to make some sense, but I was confused on how to use that area for my own script.”

A lighter tone across the studio

“I love the language when the system is searching for a script, like for Amadeus (‘Craft services is… Continuity is… The producer is…’). If more of the site felt lighter in tone, and less formal, it would feel more intuitive for me.”

More color and scale to tell the studio’s areas apart

“Personally I’d like it to feel more robust, with colors and size differentiations showcasing various areas and functions. Right now, for me, it feels like function over form. I think having both would greatly enhance the experience.”

The Advisor knows the studio exports PDF and Word

Asked about a PDF, the Advisor could say one was not available yet. Now it knows where to find export: Share, then Export, for a PDF with its optional watermark or a Word file.

Your tickets say when they were asked and shipped

Now Mine shows each thing you asked for with the day you asked and the day it shipped. A report you sent from the studio shows you its details, and only you.

Your vote follows a ticket that joins another

When something you asked for turns out to be the same as another ticket, the two are joined and your vote moves with it. Joining never takes away a vote you already gave.

Agreeing with the Analysis keeps your own mark

Pressing Agree used to wipe out the mark you had placed by hand. Now your own mark is kept behind the agreement, with what you said, who made it and when, and it comes back if you change your mind.
