View, export, and share

Who can do this: Free plan on your first project, Supporter on all projects. Anyone with project access can open the View, search it, switch layouts, and export. Editing shots, adding banners and setups, and sharing need shot list edit access (owners, admins, and members with Edit shot lists).
The Builder is where the list gets made. The View is where you and everyone else read it, tidy it, and take it to set: the same shots as a table or as cards, filtered to a day, printed, or handed out as a link. Find it under Visual → Shot List → View.
