Product Description
StoryView is a remarkable visual outliner for writers that lets you brainstorm, create, structure, and organize your ideas. StoryView uses a timeline format that is superior to index cards, blocks, and traditional outlining systems.

Now, imagine stepping back and seeing your whole story in panoramic view.
You've longed for a better way to plan your story. So put away those index cards, that legal pad, and those hand-made charts. StoryView will do all of that for you--and more.
Features:
- Outline window: allows you to create event and write in a familiar easy-to-use word processing/outliner interface.
- Import Movie Magic Screenwriter and Microsoft Word RTF documents: import existing MS Word or Screenwriter files (and Final Draft files saved in RTF format) into StoryView.
- Estimation duration: Sets the duration of events based on length of your text. This cool feature lets StoryView automatically determine how long your scenes are if they are written in format, including screenplays, stage plays, and novels imported from Movie Magic Screenwriter. You can then see their relative sizes in the Timeline View.
- New tutorials, templates, and example files: StoryView includes new outlining and screenwriting tutorials, templates for outlining and brainstorming, a complete Lord of the Rings trilogy example file, and more.
- Hide/show any event type, level, or hierarchy: allows you to view only the event types you wish to work with.
- Create multiple outlines within a single document: great for brainstorming and creating different scenarios.
- Applying fonts, styles, and attributes to multiple fonts: you can select multiple events and set their font or style.
- Time constraints: Helps to keep events where you place them. Prevents unwanted gaps from occurring in the timeline.
- Improved outline reports: outline reports now match the capabilities of the new outline window.
- Print events as seen in the outline window: print reports that match your onscreen combinations of the various outline features.
- And scores of other features and improvements!
