What are Mores and continueds?
In screenwriting, when a character or scene is interrupted — either by action, a page break, or a scene stretches across multiple pages — it’s customary to add visual cues to guide the reader. These cues help readers and actors follow the script seamlessly:
Automatic character continueds
When a character's dialogue is interrupted by an action, general or parenthetical block type, Scripto adds (CONT'D) next to that character's name:
Scene breaks
When enabled, Scripto will add scene continuations to the top and bottom of the page to help your script flow smoothly from page to page.
Controlling Mores and continueds:
Click the three-dot icon in the upper-right corner of the toolbar. Select Mores and continueds.
