Day Breaks¶
Day Breaks divide your Strips into working days, relying on the Start Date for the current Sub-Board as defined in the Calendar tab. Day Breaks are unique to one specific Board. They're not shared across all Boards in your Schedule.
Day Breaks show:
- The day number (based on the number of Day Breaks in the current Sub-Board).
- The date of that day.
- The total Page Count and Estimated Time (Shoot Time) for all the Strips in the day (above the Day Break).
Important
Day Breaks can be moved, deleted, and used in any Sub-Board or the Boneyard, just like Strips.
To Add a Day Break¶
- Select a Strip in your current Sub-Board.
-
Click the + DAY BREAK option in the menu at the top of the Board.

-
The new Day Break will display below the selected Strip.
To Automatically Add or Change Multiple Day Breaks¶
In a shooting schedule, you can automatically insert Day Breaks based on the number of script pages per day, the length of the shooting day, or the total timing.
-
Click the DOWN ARROW next to the + DAY BREAK option in the menu at the top of the Board.

-
Select an option: Insert by pg 8ths, Insert by shoot time, Insert by screen time, or Remove all day breaks.
- Enter the value for the max pg 8ths, shoot time duration, or screen time duration you want each day to contain (if applicable).
- Click APPLY. Current Day Breaks will be removed from the Sub-Board, and if inserted, new ones will be added.
Note
You can customize the layout of Day Breaks in the Strip Designer.
To Delete All Day Breaks¶
- Click the DOWN ARROW next to the + DAY BREAK option.
-
Select Remove all day breaks and click APPLY.
