Hello.

Every time I log into my script a red box appears that reads, "dialogue block exceeds page length". What does this mean and how do I get rid of it? Please help.

ebobarton, that error message is there partly to cover a somewhat hidden problem breaking dialogue across multiple pages, but the upshot is that a dialogue "block", consisting of a Character, then one or multiple Parentheticals and Dialogues, is adding up to more than a complete page, which will make that page too long when it comes to printing out etc. The easiest way to workaround it for now is to break it up with an Action paragraph somewhere. It's not ideal, I know, but the other problem should be fixed pretty soon, at which point it'll go away.

Hope this helps?
