MultiColumn - Premium Feature
MultiColumn is used in document templates that require text to be lined up in columns side-by-side. You create your own template using this tool, too. Whether you are writing in the UK Stageplay template, Audio/Visual template, Virtual Reality template, or are looking to have a split-screen moment. Whatever your goal, MutliColumn can help you achieve it!

The WriterDuet MultiColumn plugin provides capabilities for the use and manipulation of columns in scripts, across scripts, and in new built-in or custom templates.
Feature List
- MultiColumn Mode: Format sections of your script into two columns for any number of pages. Use it to write in split-screen, multiple languages, or for simultaneous action.
- Audio/Visual Template: Write documentaries, commercials, tutorials, and anything else that requires independent yet codependent audio and visual tracks.
- Virtual Reality Template: Write Virtual Reality (360º) scripts with action happening in multiple directions at once.
