OBS-ScenePad Scene scripts

Separate scripts

Each OBS scene keeps its own script, loaded automatically when you switch. Up to 200,000 characters per script, with line counts, total and selected characters, and reading progress.

Rich-text editing

Fonts, sizes, colors, strikethrough, and paragraph formatting. Use the format painter in the dock or browser to apply the same text style quickly.

Prompter controls

Adjust speed, a start countdown, and the reading guide. Desktop wheel and arrow keys move smoothly without stopping auto-scroll; search and navigation jump directly.

Search and navigation

Highlighted search and inline jumps by line or percentage. The dock keeps the original reading position across repeated jumps; return with one click. Edits or scene changes clear it.

Mark notes

Insert an orange mark at the cursor and type its note directly. Navigate backward or forward and delete a whole mark group to organize cues, transitions, and service steps.

Import and export

Import Word, HTML, or plain text, and export HTML or TXT. HTML keeps text formatting; plain text is convenient for editing and sharing.

Browser access

Connect over your LAN with a link or QR code. Computers and phones can follow scenes, edit remotely, or prompt independently. Locking in OBS makes the browser read-only.

Backup and clearing

Back up the current script or all scenes and restore as needed. Automatic clearing is off by default; choose the age and scene scope, while active scenes are skipped.

Editing lock

OBS controls editing permissions, and browsers follow its lock state. Alt-click the dock's text area to toggle the lock; use Option on Mac.

Quick actions

OBS global hotkeys are unbound by default and can be configured. Alt-Shift-click to insert a mark on desktop; use Option instead of Alt on Mac.

Single-use painter

Select the source text, click the format painter, then select the target text. It exits after applying the style; select a source again to reuse it.

Continuous painter

Double-click the painter on desktop to style multiple selections. Click it again or press Esc to exit, in either the dock or browser.

Connect on the same LAN with a link or QR code. Follow OBS scenes, edit rich text, use the painter, or prompt independently. Select text for a character count; OBS locking makes the browser read-only.
