Scripto's row numbering functionality lets you number rundown rows with whatever numbering syntax your project likes to use. (e.g. 01, 02, 03... A1, A2, A3...)

You can always type numbers into the item number column manually. But the Numbering menu in the toolbar is home to some powerful row numbering actions.

Number all rows... will number every row in your rundown, based off the "starting value" number and "increment by" number that you input.

For example, if I put a starting value of A1 and an increment by value of 1, rundown rows will be numbered A1, A2, A3, A4...

If I put a starting value of 0 and an increment by value of 10, rundown rows will be numbered 0, 10, 20, 30, 40...

This option works exactly like Number all rows except that the numbers will only be applied to selected rows. This is a useful way to renumber a specific set of rows without affecting row numbers in unselected rows.

The number selected rows action will overwrite any existing numbers in the rows you have selected.

This action removes all row numbers from the rundown.

This action removes row numbers only from rows that you have selected.

Smart numbering uses any existing item numbers in the rundown as "starting values" and increments up by 1 in subsequent rows that don't already have item numbers.

Smart numbering will NOT change or overwrite existing item numbers. It will only insert numbers into rows that are not already numbered.

Say that your preferred numbering system is:

Act 1 is numbered A1, A2, A3...

Act 2 is numbered B1, B2, B3...

Act 3 is numbered C1, C2, C3...

📌 Smart numbering is helpful when you need to number different sections of your rundown separately, rather than having one continuous sequence. It allows you to assign different prefixes or starting numbers to each section.
