Project review
The review (Overview › Review) examines the project and flags what is missing or does not hold together. It corrects nothing by itself and blocks nothing. The readers' notes (last family) also appear in Share › Sent, with what is waiting for the next version.
- Red: an inconsistency or a serious blocker, to fix.
- Yellow: missing information, or a point to watch.
Alerts are sorted into six families, to show or hide.

| Alert | When |
|---|---|
| Keep in mind | the scene has been reworked since the last version sent, although that version answered "taken into account" to a reader's note; the alert clears at the next sent version |
