How to auto-add day breaks

Save time by adding day breaks automatically to your stripboard.

StudioBinder allows you to auto-add day breaks to your stripboard when reordering strips. For instance, if you're looking to create a quick rough draft to initiate your reordering, you can automatically arrange your strips to get started.

Note: You must confirm that your schedule contains Page Eighths or Est., and/or Prep and Shoot times so that you can add the auto-day breaks based on these. If none of your Scenes contain these, there wouldn't be any way to automatically add day breaks.

Step 1 ⏀ Click reorder strips

Click the reorder strips icon at the top of the stripboard.

Step 2 ⏀ Add day breaks

In the pop-up, check Add day breaks.

Step 3 ⏀ Reorder strips

Click Reorder Stripboard to apply changes and insert automatic day breaks.

Note: Adding day breaks will automatically calculate the page count from the scenes listed directly above.

Step 4 ⏀ Review & confirm

Your stripboard will refresh, and you will see your day breaks added after the parameters you selected.

Now that you know how to auto-add day breaks, explore more ways to manage your stripboard:
