Cross out lines in sidesMark lines not filmed on a shooting day in Filmustage Sides — struck lines stay greyed in the packet, and the scene shows a skip count.
Highlight scenes in sidesSpotlight scenes in a Filmustage Sides packet by cast, location, tag category, or scene type with Smart Highlight, and optionally drop non-matches to an appendix.
Track shot status on setTrack shot status, continuity notes, and takes per scene in Filmustage Sides — the status shows as a chip in the rail and feeds the next day's packet.
