Colored Storyboard Plot Points

AEIOU · June 27th, 2014, 08:53 AM

Currently all links are square light blue and all manually added a round green. Being able to choose the color (choosing shapes would be bonus points!) of plot points would be very useful.

Colored plot points could be used for grouping like types of plot information, for identifying areas, for indicating encounters, for highlighting milestones, etc.

Maybe more shapes/colors for the points, like a flowchart? Or does this already exist and I missed it?

Yes. Like a flowchart. Like a super light Visio.

+1 to this... makes separating various concepts within the "flow" easliy decernable.

+1 to this. Even just a few more colours or shapes would make the type of plot point more visually obvious. Things like meetings, negotiations, exploration, possible combat, information, etc. would be a few options.

Too many choices would be confusing so perhaps another way to do it would be to pick a few standard ones that are locked into the system and have a few more being user definable.
