Filter Content

Want to filter the content on the page to see only character names, text, or outline lines? Perhaps you would like to filter the script to find every instance a character's name is mentioned. Use the Filter tool to create a custom filter of content. This is similar to the Custom Report with the added abilities to exclude particular line types and filter for specific words or phrases.

*Note: This feature is not available on mobile devices.
