Dialogue
Posted: Sun Jan 27, 2019 6:14 am
How do I make my characters say dialogue? i don't understand how this waorks.
Pay them?
Alternatively, when you go to a new YouMeScript script, your cursor is in an 'Action' paragraph. Hit enter to make it a 'Character', then type 'Sidney', for instance. Hit enter again, the character 'SIDNEY' is saved, and you're in a 'Dialogue'. Then type whatever you want Sidney to say.
Hitting enter changes the paragraph type, cycling through the different possibilities at that point. You can't have Dialogue unless it's after a Character or Parenthetical, for instance, so Dialogue won't be an option after an Action. If you've already got some writing in the paragraph, then hitting Tab or Shift-Tab changes the paragraph type.
Hope this helps. I should put together some videos... so much to do, so little time.
