# Overview
|
|
|
|
Saved Views preserve the current Timeline lens so you can reuse it later. They are useful when you repeatedly return to the same story question during drafting or revision.
|
|
|
|
A view can capture the active filters and section visibility. For example, you might create a view for one protagonist, another for the romance arc, another for the central mystery, and another for continuity warnings.

# Useful Saved Views
|
|
|
|
A character-focused view shows one character's scenes, appearances and relevant story evidence.
|
|
|
|
A romance view can combine the couple, relationship events, romance metrics and emotional weight.
|
|
|
|
A mystery view can focus on the investigation plot line, thread events, asset evidence and Mystery metric.
|
|
|
|
A revision view can show warnings, revision status, purpose and pacing while hiding lanes you do not need for that pass.

# Writer Tip
|
|
|
|
Name views for the question they answer: "Where is Beth's grief visible?" is often more useful than "Beth filter".
