Script window for Edit page

I make broadcast factual TV, and I would be very interested in having a window on the Edit page that holds the script I'm working on. That way I wouldn't have to keep swapping out of DR into Word or whatever to check and update the script - and ideally it would have the option of syncing it to the edit. So as you scroll through the timeline, the script rolls up and down. This would also be extremely useful for transcribed interviews. Potentially very powerful.

I made myself a Google Docs extension for Premiere a few years ago for much the same reason, not with deep transcript hooks etc, just a means to incorporate a script panel directly into the app/workspace, was very handy... more recently I simply added a third display to my desk, specifically for scripts, which is even more convenient. Can see why that might not be a realistic option for everybody tho.
If you're technically inclined at all, check out Resolve's Developer documentation, it shouldn't be at all difficult to create a simple bare bones script window plugin... in fact the sample Workflow Integration plugin included in the documentation actually creates a popup window containing a text box that you could just paste your script into. Its a floating window though, so you'd still need some spare display area to keep it.

brilliant idea!

A simple text window is available, look at Project Notes.

Yes, a solution similar to Avid ScriptSync would be great.

Much better!

script sync equivalent would take DR from good for You Tube to great for Feature Film

I've turned a couple of Avid editors onto Resolve and that's the first thing they ask..."where's the scriptsync"
Agreed it would be a GREAT addition for all.
Yes please!!!
