# View export and share

# View, export, and share

The **View** is where you browse and edit shots in a table or card layout, add banners and setups, export PDFs (shot list, lined script, as-shot), and create a view-only share link so others can see the shot list without signing in.

## Where to open the View

**Visual** → **Shot List** → **View** (or use the View tab/link from the shot list area). You see either a **list (table)** or a **card grid** (1–5 columns). Use the view type selector to switch.

## Scene picker and filtering

At the top, the **scene picker** shows the current scene (e.g. scene number + slugline) or **All Shots**. Click it to open a modal and switch to another scene or to "All Shots". You can also **filter by group** (e.g. a schedule day or a custom list) using the group dropdown. **Search** filters shots by text in the table or grid.

## Editing shots in the View

* **Inline editing:** In list view, click **Shot size**, **Shot type**, **Movement**, or **Est.** to change them from dropdowns without opening the full edit form.
* **Status:** Use the checkbox (or status control) to mark a shot as Shot / Not Shot. Cut shots appear with a "Cut" label and optional note; use **Show cut shots** to include them (they are hidden from the list and from PDFs by default).
* **Context menu (three dots):** On each shot you can **Edit**, **Duplicate**, **Add Shot Under**, **Add Setup Under**, **Add Banner Under**, **Cut Shot** (or **Restore** if already cut), or **Remove**.

## Marking shots as shot

As you film, mark each shot **Shot** (checkbox or status in the View) when it is in the can. That keeps the shot list in sync with what you have actually shot: **Not Shot** = not filmed yet, **Shot** = filmed. It helps with daily progress, as-shot reports, and avoiding duplicate work or missed coverage. You can mark shots from the list or card view; the status is saved immediately. Cut shots are separate: they are shots you dropped (see [Cut shots](/shot-list-groups-and-settings#cut-shots) for why and how to cut a shot).

## Banners and setups

* **Add Banner:** Inserts a label row (e.g. "Day 2", "Location: Park"). Use **Add** → **Add Banner** or the context menu on a shot → **Add Banner Under**.
* **Add Setup:** Groups shots under a setup name with optional times and notes. Use **Add** → **Add Setup** or **Add Setup Under** from the context menu.

You can **reorder** shots, banners, and setups by dragging. Day break banners (from the schedule) appear automatically when your schedule has day breaks; they cannot be deleted.

## Export

When a scene is selected, use **Export** to generate:

* **Shot List PDF:** Shot list layout for that scene. On the All Shots view (no scene or day selected), Export offers **Shot List PDF (all scenes)** with every shot in script order. With a custom list selected in the filter (like Pickups or VFX shots), Export also offers a PDF of just that list, in the list's order. When exporting list view, the PDF uses the same columns you chose in **Display**, so hidden columns are excluded from the export.
* **Lined Script:** Script with shot coverage marked.
* **As Shot:** As-shot report for what was filmed.

Export options may vary by project. Cut shots are excluded from PDFs unless you include them via settings.

## Display and Settings

* **Display:** Click the **Display** button in the action bar to choose which columns appear in list view (e.g. Status, Image, Scene, Shot, Description, Camera, Lens, Shot Size, Movement, Est.), set the thumbnail **Size**, and pick **Fit** or **Scroll** for the table layout. Save to keep your preferences. Column choices also control which columns appear when you export the Shot List PDF.
* **Settings:** Open **More** → **Settings** to set **Shot numbering** (Letters, Numbers, or Custom/manual) and excluded letters, and to open **Manage Coverage** (coverage subjects for character/coverage tracking).

## Share (view-only link)

Use **More** → **Share** to create a **view-only link** for the shot list. Anyone with the link can view the shot list (list or cards, scene picker, group filter) without signing in. Use **Create view-only link**, then **Copy** the URL. **Revoke** invalidates the link. Useful for sharing with department heads or clients.
