Highlights
A polish release for two places where Inkwell could quietly mangle your formatting: typing around centered lines (likeTHE END or a title
card), and acts and sequences in scripts that travel through Final
Draft. Both now hold their shape, keystroke after round-trip.
Fixed
- The update reminder takes a hint. Dismissing the “update available” window now keeps it away until the next time you open Inkwell, instead of interrupting you again every hour. Checking from the menu still shows it any time.
- Centered lines keep their center. Typing
@,.,~, or!right after the start of a centered line used to strip the centering — or swallow the character entirely. Those keys now type exactly what you pressed, and the line stays centered. - Enter at the start of a centered line does what you expect. It adds a blank line above and leaves the centered line intact, instead of breaking it into fragments.
- Centered lines survive edits elsewhere in the script. An internal
bookkeeping bug could leave a stray
<in a centered line after nearby edits retyped it. The marker now stays invisible, and saves stay clean. - Acts and sequences round-trip through Final Draft. Importing a script
with act or outline headers, then exporting and re-importing it, no
longer stamps
#characters into the headers or quietly drops the spacing around them. What goes out is what comes back. - Starting a new PDF import cancels the old one. If an import was somehow still running when you started another, the first is now shut down cleanly instead of finishing in the background.
