Live Producer 0.315: the script editor, finished

The web's script editor is done: close the script when it is final, any section editor publishes, script tags say what the show needs, and the whole script can be written without the mouse.

When the script is ready for the show, the showrunner closes it: it is published one last time and becomes read-only for everyone, so nothing changes under the operator. A banner says who closed it and on which version; Reopen Script gives everyone their rights back. See Close the script.

A closed show on the platform: the banner Closed by Maya with the date and Show Version, and Reopen Script at its end

The editor of a section no longer waits for the showrunner: anyone who edits the script can publish it, always as a whole. See Publish a version.

A shot, a lower third, a graphic, a sound or an interaction marked at a word is now a script tag: guidance for the operator, the prompter and Spelvin, with nothing that fires by itself. The Checks card warns about a lower third with nobody named or a script tag without a name. See Script editor and Checks.

Type // anywhere, even right after a word, and the tag’s fields open with the cursor in them, filled in where the words allow. Tab moves through them, Return closes them, ⌘⌫ removes a tag. See Stay on the keyboard.

Files beside the script lists every file the script plays. A row goes to its tag, with Upload… for a missing file and Replace… for one that is there. See Upload a file on its tag.
