Also included with the Production Sheet are two additional Notes columns, and the Production Sheet will now stay hidden when in a tool.

Fixed Interval Float Tool:
This new tool allows you to float a transition while taking curved pathways. The Fixed Interval Float Tool also has an option to lock intervals, so performers that are transitioning on a curved pathway will maintain the same distance between themselves throughout the maneuver.
Rotatable Props:
A long requested feature, props now have the ability to be rotated any angle.

Virtual Clinic:
It’s back! The new and improved Virtual Clinic is back to make sure the transition from computer screen to football field goes as smoothly as possible. Included with the Virtual Clinic are three different Analyzers that constantly scan your drill and provided live feedback, allowing you to prevent problems before they can occur.

Graphs stride per count
Clicking on a count in the graph jumps to the location in the file and highlights performers
Height of performers can be entered in the Cast List
Settings for the Stride Analyzer allow editing the graph of performer height vs. stride, as well as setting a “default height” for all performers.

Graphs collisions per count.
Clicking on a count in the graph jumps to the location in the file and highlights performers.
Settings for the Collision Analyzer allow editing table of performers symbols, designating how much space is required for symbol instrumentation/equipment, as well as setting a “default space” for all performers.

Graphs big jumps in animation per count.
Clicking on a count in the graph jumps to the location in the file and highlights performers.

Direction Change Analyzer:
- Graphs number of difficult direction changes per count.
- The Direction Change Analyzer watches for difficult direction changes for performers in a drill.

Selection History Tool:
