Finally hitting enter while in Characters will change the section to Dialog. When you hit enter while in Action it will change the section to Scene Heading. Hitting Tab while in Action will change the section to Characters. If you haven't noticed already, your Writing section changes to Action after you hit enter. Since the bulk of your script will not be Scene Headings, we are going to carefully cover, Action, Characters and Dialog.

You can change writing sections by either selecting the scroll tab, or hitting Tab and Enter. Writing Sections: This may be the most important section of this step, because depending on what section you are writing in, it will determine whether you are writing, setting, location, character or dialog. In this bar it also allows you to add project components such as screen play, script, storyboard, master catalog and audio log. You also can save to Celtx Online (PRO-Feature) or to your computer. Project Options: In the Project Option bar you can open new, or previously saved projects. The three major text tools (Bold, Italics, underlining) are extremely useful when writing your script, if you would like to draw attention to key names, places, characters or words. You can also find a spell check, and dual dialog (explain later) buttons along the bar.
