Plan acts and plot points on the Plot Board

Arrange plot points in acts, link chapters and track open or completed items.

The Plot Board structures the current book into acts and plot points. It does not provide separate main-story and subplot lines.

Menu pathMy Books → Open book → Plot board
Plot Board with three acts and several plot points
Acts appear in order; each plot point shows its title, chapter, description, type and status.

1. Create and edit acts

Use “Add Act” to create another story phase. Existing acts have an edit action for title and description. Describe clearly which part of the story each act represents.

2. Record plot points

“New Plot Point” creates an event. Open its card to edit title, act, chapter, plot type, summary, goal, conflict, consequence and notes; these changes are saved automatically. Drag and drop reorders points or moves them into another act. The action at the end of an act adds a point directly there.

3. Use progress and views

Mark open plot points as complete and reopen completed points when necessary. The overall count and percentage show completed progress. “All”, “Open” and “Completed” filter by status, while search filters by content.

Done

You can see dramatic order and plot-point status at a glance.
