Writing together needs clear boundaries. This chapter introduces local collaboration,

2
00:00:05,660 --> 00:00:08,980
which is still a beta feature. Shared are the screenplay

3
00:00:08,980 --> 00:00:13,120
text, the notes, the highlights and the story beats. Not

4
00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:17,060
shared are your named drafts, your snippets, your voice assignments

5
00:00:17,060 --> 00:00:20,640
and the save location of your file. Every participant keeps

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,080
their own copy and can save it under their own

7
00:00:23,080 --> 00:00:27,900
name at any time. Tools, then Collaboration opens the session

8
00:00:27,900 --> 00:00:32,340
window. Whoever has the screenplay clicks “Start Session”, enters their

9
00:00:32,340 --> 00:00:36,640
name and receives exactly one session code made of address,

10
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,040
port and key. You pass this code to the co-writers.

11
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,100
If two people change the same paragraph at the same

12
00:00:43,100 --> 00:00:47,580
time, Federio Dramatize cannot keep both. It then reports a

13
00:00:47,580 --> 00:00:51,980
conflict. You first save your local copy (“Save Local Copy”)

14
00:00:51,980 --> 00:00:55,720
and then take over the shared state (“Adopt Shared State”).

15
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,140
Try these tools on a copy of your screenplay. Keep

16
00:00:59,140 --> 00:01:01,520
what helps your writing, and return to the guide whenever

17
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:02,500
you need the details.
