Chapter 6. Advanced Celtx

Here's a more detailed look at some powerful Celtx features.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Multiple projects in a single project container: Unlike conventional screenwriting software, we can have many files in the same Celtx project, even unrelated scripts, Word files, photos, video clips, and much more. We'll see the incredible power of this feature.

  • Working with multiple project containers: Thanks to Celtx's small footprint (economical use of our computers' resources); we can have several copies of it open at once. In other words, several projects open, each containing many more projects. This, too, is real power.

  • Importing Scripts in detail: Tips, hints, kinks, and more in this in-depth look at getting already written scripts into Celtx.

  • Exporting Scripts in detail: As the entire world does not yet use Celtx (that comes after this book, eh?), here are accurate ways to put our completed scripts out in formats others can use.
