Columns in Cuez offer a way to add important information to your Episode, and everyone can chose which Columns to show or hide in the layout on their screen.

Columns can be about Timings, you can have different types of text-based notes, and you can even create Label Columns to select from a list of predefined options.

Text Columns in Cuez offer a way to add all sorts of text-based notes to Parts, Items or Blocks. These can be director's notes, graphics notes, audio notes, general notes or remarks, and more.

For more information about Text Columns, see How can I use Text Columns?

Label Columns in Cuez offer a way to add easily selectable options to your Parts, Items or Blocks, and can be configured as a single or multi-select dropdown menu.

In your Episode, click on the '+' button at the top to enable or disable the Columns available in your Project. This can be done for both the Script layout as well as the Rundown layout, allowing you to show or hide different Columns for each.

The layout you create is personal and won’t affect the others on your team.

By default, your Cuez Episode will contain the different Timings Columns, as well as a couple Text Columns. From there, you can add and edit Columns as needed.

If you have the Admin role within your Project, you will see the option to 'Add new Column', allowing you to manage the existing Columns as well as to create your own custom ones. This can also be done via the Column management from the menu on the top left of your Episode, both options bring you to the same menu.

From this menu you open the Column manager where you will see both your 'Active' and 'Archived' Columns. The 'Active' tab shows you all Columns currently available in your Episode(s). For each of these Columns you can click the three vertical dots under 'Actions' at the back of the Column, giving you the option to Edit, Archive or Delete the Column.

You can also create a new Column from scratch from the top right.

To edit an existing Column, select 'Edit column' from the actions menu for the Column you want to edit. A new 'pop-up' will open, showing you the Column name, as well as the other options that can be edited for this Column, such as a default cell style and a default cell value.

Archiving a Column will move it to the 'Archived' tab at the top, by which it will no longer be available to use in your Episode(s).

An Archived Column can be unarchived by opening the actions menu for the Column (within the 'Archived' tab), then selecting 'Unarchive Column'.

Columns that you no longer need, can be deleted. Do keep in mind that deleted Columns cannot be restored, so make sure this is indeed what you want to do - if you are unsure, consider archiving the Column instead.

Creating a new Column to use in your Episode(s) is easy. Select 'Add a new column' in the top right of the Column manager window, select which type of Column you want to create, and configure your Column as needed.

When everything is configured, you can confirm with the blue button - the Column is now available for all users in the Project.
