Experiencing issues with scripts and sides? Check out this article to catch the usual suspects πŸ”Ž

Updated over a week ago

If you're having trouble generating sides or if scenes are not displaying as expected, this guide will help you troubleshoot the issue. The usual suspects are the script parser and the file processor. Follow the steps below to resolve the problem.

Script Parser

  1. Try to parse the script. You can do this by selecting 'Parse Script' from the script menu (the three-dot icon). This will update the data.

  2. If there's no change, try again using a different version and color to ensure the file isn't blocked by a cache.

File Processor

  1. Check the format of your script file. It should be a PDF, not an image file stored as a PDF. You can check this by clicking on the page

  2. If the entire page highlights, it's an image file and this has caused a processing error.

Check for Cached Data

If scenes are not displaying as expected, it's possible that the file has cached data in the PDF. In this case, contact the script coordinator for an updated version to resolve the issue.
