How do I see my whole script page?

To see your full script page without UI in the way, pinch in with two fingers for Extended Zoom Out, single-tap an empty area to hide the Top and Thumbnail toolbars, or turn on Always Show Top Toolbar to nest the page below the menu.


The Top Toolbar, Annotation Bar, and Thumbnail Bar can sometimes cover up page details like page numbers or scene numbers. Here are four ways to fix that.


1. Extended Zoom Out


Pinch in with two fingers on the page to zoom out beyond the default fit with Extended Zoom Out toggled on in the General Page of the Settings menu. By default the zoom resets when you change pages — to keep the same zoom across the entire script, set Page Transition to Continuous.


2. Single-tap to hide the toolbars


Deselect any active annotation tool, then single tap an empty area of the page to hide the Top Toolbar and Thumbnail Bar. Single tap again to bring them back. The Annotation Bar stays put. Full details in How to hide/find the Top Toolbar.


3. Always Show Top Toolbar


If you'd rather the Top Toolbar never overlay your script page, toggle on Always Show Top Toolbar in the Settings menu. The page nests below the toolbar instead, so script details like page and scene numbers are always visible.


📝 NOTE: With Always Show Top Toolbar enabled, the single-tap-to-hide behavior in option 2 is disabled — the toolbar stays visible at all times.


4. Reposition or hide the Thumbnail Bar or Annotation Bar
