Latest Updates | August 2026
CINEside v1.7.4
- Fixed: the rotate/zoom view now always reflects the rotation actually saved in your project, even when the same image is used on more than one floorplan.
CINEside v1.7.3
- Fixed: notes placed directly on a scene floorplan ("Notes on this Plan") are now included when you export to CINEside CONNECT.
CINEside v1.7.2
- Fixed: opening the Schedule on a project without shoot days no longer marks the project as changed, so closing right afterwards won't ask you to save. Assigning a scene, or renaming or adding a day, still counts as a real change.
- Fixed: the floating "Next Note" button now steps aside while a full-screen panel (Schedule, Preferences, and similar) is open, so it no longer sits over content it can't refer to. It reappears as soon as you close the panel.
CINEside v1.7.1
- Fixed: the scene navigation bar (scene dropdown, Scene Manager and Scene Board) could disappear while scrolling and only return after a restart. It now stays visible whenever your project has scenes.
CINEside v1.7.0
- Fixed: shoot days created in the Schedule could disappear after closing and reopening a project. The schedule is now written into every save, so your shoot days are always kept.
- Fixed: CINEside now asks whether to save when you close the app with unsaved schedule changes.
- Fixed: the "Could not reopen last project" message that could appear on every launch or save. The app now keeps its link to your project file instead of dropping it after a single failed read.
July 2026
CINEside v1.6.9
- New: Redesigned scene tags — a coloured title underline with a chip and all-caps label in the tag's own colour, applied across the Shot List, Schedule and Location Dossier.
- Improved: Clearer boundary hierarchy in the Shot List — full-bleed scene separators, dashed full-bleed part separators, and in-margin shot separators.
- Fixed: Scene headers and Part headings are no longer left stranded at the bottom of a page.
- Fixed: Removed the double line under tag-less scene titles.
- Fixed: Location Dossier — shots no longer split across pages, and scene notes now carry a label.
CINEside v1.6.8
- Fixed: Curved movement lines on floorplans (character and camera paths) rendered incorrectly in PDF exports — curves bowed too far and were attached to the wrong segment. PDFs now match the app exactly.
- Improved: Anchor overlays now align precisely with the rendered plan image, including tall plans that are height-limited on the page.
CINEside v1.6.7
- Fixed: shot photos on part-split scenes are now embedded correctly in CONNECT exports (no more "?" placeholders).
- Fixed: long Day for Night / Atmosphere / Mood notes now wrap in PDF exports instead of overflowing the page.
CINEside v1.6.6
- Fixed: page content could overlap the export footer in several PDFs (Location Dossier, Notes, VFX/SFX, Equipment, Crew).
- Fixed: a stuck "Generating PDF…" status line after cancelling a VFX/SFX export.
CINEside v1.6.5
- Changed: Page format (A4 / US Letter) is now an app-wide setting in Preferences (⚙) instead of a per-export choice — set it once and it applies to all projects and every PDF export.
CINEside v1.6.4
- New: Scene List export — every scene in one row, filterable by INT/EXT and time of day, as CSV or landscape PDF.
- Fixed: Shot List CSV now includes scenes without shots.
- Fixed: Editing a shot's anchor moves it to the correct part automatically.
CINEside v1.6.2
- Fixed: Note color swatches in the Notes block now change the note's color, matching the behavior of the Discuss with block.
CINEside v1.6.1
- Fixed: Shared location notes and location photo captions now update live across every open scene at that location, matching the shared photos and floorplan.
CINEside v1.5.9
- Improved: The shoot-day type control in the Schedule is now a clearly labelled "Day type" button with a grouped menu (Unit: Main Unit, 2nd Unit, Splinter Unit — Phase: Pre-Shoot, Post-Shoot), replacing the small dot that was easy to miss.
CINEside v1.5.8
- Changed: Renamed the Scene Manager's "Cancel" button to "Close". Edits in the Scene Manager are saved automatically, so the button never discarded anything — the new label makes that clear.
CINEside v1.5.7
- Fixed: empty slug on scene-boundary insert is now visibly flagged in the field.
- Fixed: undo after the first edit on a loaded project no longer clears the script.
- Removed: the unused "Create first scene" button in the empty Scene Manager.
CINEside v1.5.6
- Fixed: Removing a part divider no longer discards shots placed in the removed part — they now fold into the preceding part.
CINEside v1.5.5
- Fixed: Splitting a scene now carries shot, cam move, annotation and part-divider anchors along — shots whose text moves into the new scene move with it, instead of pointing at the wrong line.
- Fixed: After re-importing a script, out-of-sync anchors are now detected in every part of a scene, not just the first.
- The import button now reads "Import new version" once a screenplay is loaded, making the merge clearer.
- Clearer wording on the sync notice when only a single issue remains.
CINEside v1.5.4
- Fixed: Scene boundary moves (buttons or drag) now keep shots, annotations and part dividers anchored to their script lines
- Fixed: Anchors separated from their script line show a warning immediately
- New: Orphaned anchors re-attach automatically when their script line returns to the scene
CINEside v1.5.3
- Fixed: Merging a scene in the Scene Manager no longer deletes its heading line.
- Fixed: "Merge into previous" now carries over the whole scene — plans, anchors, crew, equipment, tags, notes — and keeps every anchor and part divider pointing at the right line.
- Fixed: Deleting a single floorplan or photo no longer leaves rotation and CONNECT notes on the wrong image.
- Improved: Scenes missing from the latest script version are marked in the Scene Manager's script column and shown as "OLD SC. x".
CINEside v1.5.2
- Fixed: Reference links with an uppercase scheme (HTTPS://) were silently dropped from PDF exports
CINEside v1.5.1
- New: The Location Dossier can now include reference links, with a 🔗 Links toggle in the export dialog. Same clickable URLs as in the shot list.

CINEside v1.4.9
- Fixed: The Prep Checklist PDF now opens automatically after export.

- The original scene heading from the screenplay stays untouched in the script column.
CINEside v1.4.2
- License keys now allow activation on up to 3 devices (was 2)
- New "Deactivate This Device" option in Preferences — frees up a license slot before selling or replacing a computer

CINEside v1.4.0

CINEside v1.3.8
- Fixed unreadable light-name autocomplete suggestions
- Demo Mode now offers sample screenplay + floorplan downloads when no project is loaded
CINEside v1.3.7
- Removed the redundant "Arrange Scenes" button — Scene Manager covers the same function.
CINEside v1.3.6
- Lighting Plan PDF export now matches the app view: light symbols scale with plan width, numbers appear inside the symbol with the name below, overhead rings are dashed.
- Legend column next to Floorplan and Lighting Plan now stays pinned below the header and scene bar while scrolling — the panel titles remain visible as long as the plan is in view.
CINEside v1.3.5
- Floorplan and Lighting Plan legends now sit in a column beside the plan instead of below it — place characters, lights, grip and notes without scrolling back and forth
- Place buttons highlight while the app waits for a click on the plan
- Camera anchors are easier to select — clicking inside the viewing angle now works
- Fixed: light and grip symbols appeared horizontally stretched on tall plans
- Fixed: floorplan jumped or flickered after Undo
- Fixed: adding a note to a plan moved the plan and kept the rotation cursor active

CINEside v1.3.2
- Slimmer header — 42px more working space
- Fixed: scene header could slip underneath the app header in Demo Mode
CINEside v1.3.1
- Location floorplans can now be rotated during import — a preview dialog offers 90° steps before the image is written, so the plan appears correctly oriented in every scene at that location.
- Fixed: importing a location floorplan no longer jumps the scroll position to a different scene, or further down inside the current one.
- The location block now shows which name the scenes are grouped by, with a warning when the match comes from the scene heading because no Location field is set.
- Fixed: the rotate cursor no longer appears on the location floorplan, which is not click-rotatable.
CINEside v1.3.0
- Fixed: placing a camera position in a scene without a floorplan no longer jumps to another scene. The "Place on floorplan" button is now disabled when the scene has no floorplan image.
CINEside v1.2.9
- Re-anchoring a shot or camera move now shows the anchored script text as a read-only preview instead of an editable box — select the new script range to cover.

CINEside v1.2.7
- Maintenance: under-the-hood improvements to license handling and PDF export.

- Fixed: Character anchor rotation handle now aligns with the nose (facing direction) on rotated floorplans.
- Fixed: Rotation cursor no longer appears on lighting plans after placing a light or grip element.
CINEside v1.2.4
- Shot List export: shot-less scenes now also appear when they only carry notes or other info — lighting, sun and floorplan notes, additional crew, equipment, links, location details, or my notes (when that toggle is on) — not just when they contain images.
CINEside v1.2.3
- Shot List export now also includes scenes that have no shots yet, as long as they contain material for an active toggle (floorplans, reference photos, sun/lighting, or location info) — useful during prep before shots are added.
CINEside v1.2.2
- PDF exports are now grouped consistently — Location, Scene Level and Lighting each form a clear block, separated by divider lines, across every export.
- Sun Position now appears in the Schedule and Location Dossier exports (when Lighting is on), with its note printed below.
- Every plan and photo caption is now included in all exports — nothing entered in CINEside is left out of the PDF.
- Lighting legends now stay on the same page as their plan, with a divider between consecutive floorplans and lighting plans.
- Section titles (Floorplan, Lighting Plan, Reference Photos, Sun Position) never get stranded alone at the bottom of a page.
CINEside v1.2.1
- Camera positions can now be placed on any floorplan of a scene, not just the first — each shot's anchor shows which floorplan it sits on.
- Fixed: rotated floorplans and lighting plans no longer jump when a scene renders (on first open, after undo, or after rotating).
- Fixed: the view no longer scrolls away when deleting a floorplan or lighting plan.
- Clearer buttons: "add lighting plan" and "add scene reference photo".
CINEside v1.2.0
- Anchors on floorplans & lighting plans — place camera, person, light and grip anchors directly onto your scene floorplans and lighting plans. Position, rotate and annotate them — they carry through to your PDF dossiers.
- Lighting types with symbols — the lighting-type picker now shows each fixture's symbol next to its name. Categories: Spot / Par, Fresnel, Soft Source, Tube, Spacelight / Lantern, Practical. Specific information about each light goes in the free-text field.
- Scene Board shows anchors, live — your second-screen Scene Board renders all anchors (camera, person, light and grip) and updates automatically after every change.
- CONNECT export — camera and person anchors are now baked into the floorplan images sent to CONNECT.
- Fixed: SO Dossier (Scene Overview) now shows every floorplan and lighting image per scene, not just the first.

- Location Dossier: fixed a performance issue where large exports could freeze the interface
CINEside v1.1.14
- Fixed: Part boundaries (splitting a scene into parts) could silently drift out of place after a script re-import. They're now automatically re-anchored where possible, or clearly flagged with a one-click fix if the surrounding text changed too much.
- Improved: Shot anchors, camera moves, notes, and part boundaries left "out of sync" by a re-import are now tracked together, with a single clear way to jump to and fix each one in turn.
- Added: Two new automatic safety backups — one per day, and one right before every script re-import — independent of the existing rotating backups.
- Fixed: Manual corrections to a scene's heading (location, INT/EXT, DAY/NIGHT) made in Scene Manager could be silently overwritten by the next re-import. They're now protected.
- Added: Scenes can now be deleted completely from within Scene Manager, not just merged into the previous scene.
- Fixed: Undo (Cmd+Z) now works correctly while Scene Manager is open, with a visible Undo button there too.
- Improved: The "scenes changed by last import" navigation now also works from inside Scene Manager, showing the actual script diff instead of just the plain scene text.
CINEside v1.1.13
- Added: Scene-import review now shows uncertain candidates one at a time, with instant feedback and the ability to revisit and change any decision afterward.
- Added: Side-by-side PDF page comparison for duplicate scene checks, with independent page navigation and automatic highlighting of the relevant line.

- Added: Progress indicator during script import, so longer scripts no longer appear to hang.
- Added: Support for an additional scene-heading format used in some French scripts.
CINEside v1.1.12
- Fixed: In the Shot List Only export, a tagged scene starting mid-page could overlap with the previous scene's content. Tags now always appear as a compact square badge next to the scene heading in this export.
CINEside v1.1.11
- Fixed: CONNECT export could fail silently in rare cases without producing a file or an error message. Failures are now always shown with a clear explanation.
- Fixed: A corrupted or missing shot entry in a scene could crash export functions that read all shots. Such gaps are now safely skipped.
- Improved: If CINEside can't find your last project at startup — for example because the project folder was moved or renamed — it now shows a clear message instead of failing silently.
CINEside v1.1.10
- Redesigned scene-panel typography hierarchy (group headers, location vs. scene distinction)
- Renamed "Scene Details" to "Tags & References" for accuracy
- Fixed a layout bug causing inconsistent label/button styling in parts of the scene panel
CINEside v1.1.9
- Autocomplete suggestions added to Sub-location, Addt'l Crew, and Addt'l Equipment fields — same idea as the Location field, to help avoid accidental near-duplicates
- Fixed: autocomplete suggestions no longer show the same name twice when it only differs by capitalization (e.g. "Main Floor" vs. "MAIN FLOOR")
CINEside v1.1.8
- Renamed "Sketches" to "Floorplan" throughout the app and PDF exports, for consistency with the location-level Floorplan feature — same idea, just scoped to one scene instead of all scenes at that location
- New: typing a new location name now suggests existing location names as you type, to help avoid accidental near-duplicates from typos
- The location-rename safety check now also applies when other scenes share a location name, even before any photos or notes have been added there
- Minor spacing improvements in the scene panel's Location section
CINEside v1.1.7
- New: if you change a scene's Location field and the previous location had notes, photos or a floorplan attached, you're now asked whether to carry those over to the new name — nothing gets silently left behind
- Fixed: renaming a location could cause the page to jump while scrolling
CINEside v1.1.6
- Fixed: floorplan/location photos could fail to export if the scene's Location field included an INT./EXT. prefix, or relied on the scene heading as a fallback
CINEside v1.1.5
- Fixed: floorplan images were not included in PDF exports even when the Location toggle was enabled
- Fixed: location notes and photos could be missing from the Full export depending on which other toggles were active
