Browsing & Sorting Locations

Sort locations alphabetically, by completion, or by script order. Each row shows a landscape thumbnail, INT./EXT. prefix, scene stats, and a permit badge. Toggle deleted locations on or off with the Show Deleted button.

Anatomy of a Location Row

Each row in the Locations tab displays:

Portrait thumbnail — A landscape (200×112) establishing shot, or a placeholder if no portrait exists
Name — Prefixed with INT./EXT. and suffixed with the predominant time of day (e.g., “INT. COFFEE SHOP – DAY”)
Permit badge — Shows permit status when permit info is present
Address — City, state, or full address when available
Scene stats — Scene count with day/night page-eighth badges (e.g., “5 scenes · D: 3⅛ N: 1⅞”)
Description — Click to edit inline
Action buttons — Auto-Describe, Generate/Regenerate portrait, and more

Sort Options

Use the sort dropdown in the toolbar to reorder locations:

Script Order (default)

Sorts locations by their first scene appearance in the script. Locations that appear earliest come first.

A→Z / Z→A

Alphabetical sorting by location name, ascending or descending.

Completion

Ranks locations by how complete they are — those missing a description or portrait appear first so you can fill in the gaps.

Show / Hide Deleted

The Show Deleted toggle in the toolbar reveals soft-deleted locations with a count badge showing how many are hidden. Deleted rows display a red “Deleted” badge and an individual Restore button to bring them back.
