What are Bookmarks and how can I use them?

Bookmarks help you navigate a script quickly — whether it's the top of a scene or a page you keep returning to, a Bookmark makes that spot easy to find again.

📝 NOTE: This video shows a slightly older user interface, but the instructions are still accurate.

The Bookmark icon sits on the right side of the Top Toolbar. If you don't see it, find Bookmark in the three-dot menu (⋯), or pin it under Settings → Toolbars.

To create your first bookmark, navigate to the page you'd like to bookmark.

📝 NOTE: Unless it's set to always be visible, the Top Toolbar disappears when you swipe through your script. A single tap or click anywhere on the screen will reveal the Top Toolbar again.

Once you've reached the page, touch or click the Bookmark icon. The icon darkens once the bookmark is made. You can add as many bookmarks as you'd like.

Managing bookmarks

In the Outline window you can review, add, reorder, rename, and delete bookmarks. Touch or click the Outline icon (the open book) on the Top Toolbar. The left tab shows the Bookmarks Outline; the right tab shows the Annotation Outline:

At the bottom left, the + icon adds a bookmark to the current page. At the bottom right, touch or click Edit:

Reorder — touch / click and hold the three-line icon to the right of a bookmark name to drag it up or down;
Rename — touch or click the bookmark name to edit it;
Delete — touch or click the red circle to the left of the bookmark, then touch or click Delete.

When you're finished, touch or click Done.

Transferring bookmarks

To carry bookmarks into a new draft, turn on Transfer Bookmarks during Note Transfer. See How do I transfer my Bookmarks to my new draft?

📝 NOTE: Bookmark Transfer is an Industry Pro feature.
