Feature Requests

I am not sure what happened, but I thought we could drag and drop entire days on the calendar to adjust the schedule in calendar mode. That helps move days quickly.

Actually I am a new potential user of your software. Not an AD. I work in the camera department trying to track our daily equipment requests when the schedule changes. To do that I am having to create my own strip board based on one that the ADs create. But with only camera dept relevant info on it. (Equipment, crew, etc). But I need to output my breakdown elements in a way that the production manager can easily read and copy and paste. So a report that has the date as a header, then underneath, multiple selected elements needed for that date (crew, lenses etc that need to be booked.) Could work for any non AD department, grips, lighting etc.

Sometimes scenes are continuous, or intercut, and should be shot together. It would be great to be able to select multiple scenes and merge them.

I miss the MMS feature of a red flag report. This is a very useful report to hand over to the 2nd AD and line producer.

I'm constantly trying to see what episode things are in - which requires me to go to the DOODs. It'd be nice to have a column that shows which episodes any given element works in. Especially cast and stunts, but sets, props, costumes - I often need to know that info.

When I imported my tagged final draft script, most of my categories and tags were not imported correctly, despite having the same names. So now I need to waste more time manually inputting all my tags, again. I don't have this problem in movie magic.

Loving it so far - could you add the script page to a window - so we can see the script page and the breakdown sheet at the same time.

It would be extremely important for us to have a red flag when the same cast member is scheduled on the same shooting day in different units, alerting us that the cast is assigned to both Unit 1 and Unit 2. This really helps when planning dual-unit shoots. Fuzzlecheck handles this very well and gives much more safety and practicality when building the schedule. Is it possible to add this feature?

Can we talk about how challenging it is to see the actual result of custom layout changes? Forgetting the already requested features for layout manager, it takes many steps to see what the actual result of a layout change(s) will be. In order to see the result of a change and to then make an adjustment or more changes you have to follow all these steps EVERY time: Reports > New Report > Type Report Name > Select Report Type > Print Preview > Evaluate > Cancel Print Preview > Cancel Report > "X" Report > Layout Manager. It would be great if when in design mode we could see a real time or single-click update of what the layout change result will be when actually printing. It's a pretty tedious and time consuming process in its current setup. Unless I'm totally missing a better way.
