The first Storyboard Display Mode is the Thumbnail View , which has been featured in our examples so far.

The second Display Mode is the Column View and the third one, the Row View. Both of these Modes allow you to add written information to your Storyboard in the dedicated Action, Dialog and Notes text fields. You can Copy, Paste, Cut text in those fields through the usual system shortcuts (Ctrl / Cmd + C ; Ctrl / Cmd + V ; Ctrl / Cmd + X...) or through a right-click. Here is a screenshot of the Column View:
