Pieces on a shot

+ Piece on a shot’s Story page opens a tray of pieces, the same pieces a design uses. The scene Camera’s Story page on Photo, Loop, and Video has the same tray. The fig Camera’s tray has the ten fig pieces in place of the scene pieces. Pieces save with the clip, the fig, or the scene, with the shot’s words.

Add a piece

1. Tap + Piece. The tray opens under the buttons.
2. Tap a tile. The page reads Tap to place [name].
3. Tap the frame. The piece lands there, on the grid, lit.

A Border fills the frame as soon as you tap its tile. Tap + Piece again to close the tray.

The tray has 29 tiles: Title, Subtitle, Badge, Level badge, Bar, Stat list, Text box, Picture, Frame, Logo, Starburst, Plus, Cross, Tab label, Button prompt, Border, Divider, Zone, Tape, Staple, Sticky note, Ticket, Label tape, QR code, the four scene pieces (Place tag, Cast line, Credits, and Episode card), and last Caption. The fig Camera’s tray has 35: the same, with the ten fig pieces before Caption in place of the scene pieces.

The shot’s pieces list under its words, each with its tag, its words, and ↑ and ↓ for the order. Tap a piece’s row, or the piece on the frame, to open its rows. Drag a lit piece on the frame: it snaps to the grid, the frame’s edges and middle, and other boxes, with a tick at each new place.

A new Text box and Subtitle start on a dark panel with cream letters. A Badge lands bigger, and its word grows with its box.

On a new clip or Camera shot, pieces start as in a design: their word boxes empty, with a faint Enter text, and a Title with the fig’s name. Every word you type prints, even one that matches a sample, like Notes or Price. Words line up as in a design. See Words that line up . Clips and shots that had pieces before keep their old starts.

A piece’s rows

The rows start with the piece’s words: one field for most pieces, Label and Value on a Bar, Label and Number on a Level badge, one line per stat on a Stat list (e.g., Height: 2.4 m), and a Subtitle field on a Logo. Then:

• In every shot: Copies the piece onto every shot of the clip, new shots too. A change to one copy changes them all. The piece’s row then shows · In every shot. The Camera’s Story page has no In every shot.
• ✕ (Remove): Removes the piece.
• Place, Size, Tilt, and Bleed: As for words. See The rows .
• Detail, Style, Effect, Border, Fill, Accent, Letters, Gradient, Curve, Font, and Shape: As in a design. A piece shows only the rows it can use.
• Motion (Starburst, Plus, Cross): Still, Spin, Twinkle, or Bob. A Subtitle in the Ticker style has Still, Slow, Normal, or Fast. It starts at Normal and crawls across in a video.
• Order: Background puts the piece behind the figs. Back and Front set it under or over the shot’s other pieces.

Picture

A Picture shows a fig from the shot. Figs sets the fig. Turn sets Turntable, Front, Side, or Back. Frame sets the picture’s frame: None, Line, Polaroid, Taped, Ring, Window, the shapes, and the text-art looks.

Frame

A Frame goes around a fig and its words. Tap the Frame tile, then tap a fig’s picture or a box of words: the Frame lands around it and the words just above and below it. Tap open space, and it lands at its own size. Move, size, tilt, and order it like any piece.

• Frame: Line, Polaroid, Taped, Ring, Window, Star, Burst, Plus, Cross, Heart, Triangle, Slant, Cut, Terminal, Double, Dashes, Blocks, Box lines, and Brackets. In a clip, a Frame is a border only: it has no Panel or Rounded panel.
• A new Frame starts as lines with Fill on None, so the scene shows through. Fill gives it a color.
• Lines: The color of the Frame’s lines. Auto (the usual ink), the accent colors, the scene’s colors, and + for any color. Polaroid, Taped, Ring, and Window have no lines, so they have no Lines row.
• A word over a Frame’s color switches to dark or light letters if its own color would not stand out. A Letters color you set never changes.

Ticket, Label tape, and QR code

These three take their words from the shot’s first fig: its name, its number, and its save date. A shot with no fig uses the scene’s name, number, and date. Figs sets the fig the words come from.

• Ticket: A stub with a perforated edge, Admit one, the fig’s name, number, and date.
• Label tape: Raised letters on a colored strip, the fig’s name to start.
• QR code: A working code for a link. The link starts as https://unflatlowpoly.com. Its caption shows the link until you type over it. The code scans in photos, loops, and videos.

Every word has its own box on the Story page. Tap a word on the lit piece to jump to its box. A word you type stays yours if the fig changes. Type the fig’s own word back, and the box follows the fig again. An empty box prints nothing.

Scene pieces

The four scene pieces take their words from the scene, its figs, and the clip.

• Place tag: The scene’s name big, with the sky and the time under it. The sky is the cloud mood’s name, or else the time of day as the Light page names it. The time is the time you take the photo or the video.
• Cast line: Starring on an accent tab, then the figs in the shot by name, dressed figs first.
• Credits: Starring and every fig in the clip, then Made by and your name from your newest share, or You. On the Camera, the scene’s figs.
• Episode card: The number (e.g., Ep. 3) in the accent over the clip’s name. The number is the clip’s place among your clips, oldest first. On the Camera, it is the scene’s place among your scenes, over the scene’s name.

Each piece is as wide as its words. The rows are Place, Size, Tilt, Detail, Accent, Font, and Order, plus In every shot in a clip. Every word has its own box on the Story page. A word you type stays yours. A word you leave alone changes when the scene or the clip changes or gets a new name.

Fig pieces on the fig Camera

The fig Camera’s tray has the ten fig pieces from Designs: Fig facts, Receipt, Big number, Lineup by height, Fig ID, Photo booth, Paint chips, Now playing, Tier list, and Sticker sheet. See Fig pieces .

• Each lands filled from the fig. A Fig ID’s holo dot and a Photo booth’s frames move in a Loop and a Video.
• Big number has a Number row: Faces, Parts, Colors, or Moves.
• Lineup by height, Tier list, and Sticker sheet show your 12 newest figs on their Figs row. Tap a fig to add it or take it off. The last fig stays. On a Tier list, tap a fig on the picture, then tap a row to move it there.
• Now playing shows the fig’s own name and moves.

The word check covers every word on a piece. A blocked word stops Share and Snap and opens the Story page on its box. See The word check .
