Transcript availability and selection

Element or action	Behavior
Available transcripts	Includes media with speech analysis, loaded transcripts, and a transcript selected from elsewhere in Jumper. Duplicate paths are removed.

Filter transcripts	Filters the sidebar by file name or full path. The placeholder reports the number of available transcripts.
Sidebar divider	Resizes the transcript list. The sidebar retains a minimum usable width.
Compact-screen selector	Replaces the hidden sidebar with a file-name selector above the toolbar.
Media → View transcript	Switches to the Script tab and selects that file.
Speech result → Show in script	Switches to the Script tab, selects that file, and navigates to the matching segment.

Control	Behavior
Search in this transcript	Highlights matching text in visible script lines. Removed lines are excluded from the count and navigation.
Match count	Displays the current match and total matches. Displays No matches when applicable.
Up/down arrows	Move to the previous or next match and scroll it into view.
Minus/Plus	Decreases or increases transcript text size within the supported range.
Sun/Moon	Switches only the transcript workspace between light and dark. It does not change Jumper’s application theme.

Transcript rows and removed groups

Speaker badge	Identifies the assigned or detected speaker for the following lines. Selecting the badge opens speaker naming controls.
Click	Selects one line.
Shift-click	Extends the selection between the previous anchor and the selected line.
Double-click	Seeks the connected NLE’s Source Monitor to the line’s start timecode.
