Managing scripts in a rundown

After creating a new rundown you can add one or more scripts.

Creating scripts

To create a new script:

1. Select Story >> New from the QMaster menu bar.

43. From the sub menu that appears select either Single-column Script or Single-column

Break.

If you choose Single-column Script, the New Item Title dialogue box appears.

44. Enter the script name in the text box and click OK.

The name should be very concise description of the script.

Break items

Choose Single-column Break if you wish to split the rundown into sections.
Breaks are used for example if you have commercial segments in a broadcast or refreshment periods

between speakers at a conference.
The total word count and duration for each section are displayed in the bar at the bottom of each section.
