Screenplay Dialogue Heatmap

See which pages are talky and which are visual. A bar per page from your Fountain or FDX.

{# The contextual promotion. Hidden until the tool has produced a result, so the visitor's own task is finished before the app is mentioned. `tool.hook` is written per tool in website/tools.py — a viewer sells editing, a formatter sells automatic formatting — which is why this is not a single generic banner. #}

Catch a talky second act

Each bar is about one page (~190 words). Gold is dialogue and parentheticals; the rest is action and sluglines. A long gold stretch usually means the scene is all talk. Visual scripts look darker.

Frequently asked questions

Is a dialogue-heavy page bad?

Not if that is the scene. The map is a pacing hint before you cut.

{# Converter success dialog. Only rendered on the converter tools, and only shown once a conversion has actually succeeded. The Zen Writer CTA is presented first, but the download stays in the dialog as a real button rather than a line of text at the bottom: the visitor's own task has to be finishable from here without dismissing anything, and the site never gates a free conversion behind a signup, an email or an install. #}
