How can I quickly scroll through my script?

Navigating quickly through your script with the Thumbnail Bar and Settings Menu.



The fastest way to move through your script is by using the Thumbnail Bar.

On the bottom of the screen, by default, there are thumbnail images of each page. You can tap and drag your finger across the thumbnail images to navigate to any particular page.

Want to adjust or hide the Thumbnail Bar? Scroll down to learn more.



Don't see the Thumbnail Bar? Just like the Top Toolbar, tap anywhere on the script to make it appear / disappear.

The page navigation settings can be controlled from the Settings Menu.

To access Settings, tap the File Browser.



At the bottom of the window, tap Settings.



From here, you can adjust preferences on Page Mode, Scroll Direction, Page Transition, Page Fitting and Thumbnails.



Let's take a closer look at each of these settings. You'll surely discover the presets that work for you!

TIP for iOS users: The fastest way to swipe through your script is by selecting Page Transition: Continuous.
