Project dashboard
Written By ShotGlide
Last updated About 1 month ago
The dashboard is the first screen you see when you open ShotGlide. It lists all your projects and lets you create, open, or delete them.
On the dashboard
New Project — create a new project and confirm. It opens right away, ready to draw.
Project cards — show the project name, number of scenes, and total shots. Tap to open
Sort — top right, above your projects. Choose Recent (last opened first), A–Z or Z–A.
Trash — restore or permanently delete projects and scenes. See Trash Manager
Backup & Restore — import a project or restore all app data. Please see Backup section.
Choosing an aspect ratio
When you create a new project, you pick its aspect ratio. 9 formats are available:
16:9 (default) — best for most projects
Cinema & Television — 2.39 Scope, 1.85 Theatrical Flat, 1.66 European Widescreen, 4:3 Classic TV
Premium Cinema — 1.90 Digital Large Format, 1.43 70mm Large Format
Social & Mobile — 1:1 Square, 9:16 Vertical
Note: the aspect ratio applies to every frame in the project and can't be changed later, so pick the one that matches the format of your film.
Rename a project
To rename a project:
Open Project → Open Sidebar → Double-tap the project name
Returning to the dashboard
From inside a project, open the sidebar and tap Home.
Your work is saved automatically.
