Customisable MarkUp layouts, drawings to video and server storage warnings

25 Aug 2026 · Build 9.98

Piston 9.98 is a large update covering MarkUps, cuts, Composer, qualifiers, scoreboards and storage warnings.

🎨 MarkUps

Customise layouts. Change opacity, position, marker width and height, text wrapping, and fit across the screen.
Save layouts. Save a custom layout and apply it to other MarkUps.
Stays available. MarkUps remain visible and usable in fullscreen and when the video timeline is hidden.

Cut icon on markers. Markers that already have a cut now show it.
Choose what to do with an existing cut. When you swipe to cut a marker that already has one, you can jump to the existing cut, create another, or re-cut and replace it.
N shortcut in fullscreen. Press N to create a Note Marker while in fullscreen.

Import into Composer directly from the Imports and Drawings archives.
Convert drawings to video, with a setting for how long the video lasts.
Auto-send cuts to your Composer. A new setting sends every cut to the Session Default Composer as it is created.

Adaptive layout. Qualifier lists adapt to the screen space available and show more qualifiers. You can switch this off in settings.
Search. Large qualifier lists now have a search bar.

Burn the scoreboard into a session. Works with Piston Server software 898 or later. Camera Profiles with a scoreboard show a scoreboard icon in the Start Session menu, and you can enable Burn Scoreboard Overlay when you start a session.
Customise before you start. Choose a saved scoreboard and edit the team names.

Clearer warnings. Tap a storage warning for more information and the option to dismiss it.
They return as space runs out. A dismissed warning reappears at 80%, 90%, 95% and 98% full. At 98% it can no longer be dismissed.

Qualifiers are returned and sent to the server in the order you entered them.
Better handling of Auto Imports when you open the Imports section just after a file lands in the server’s Imports folder.
Improved look and behaviour of the Add to Composer menu, plus general interface improvements.

Slow motion with a drawing on screen ignored the setting to remove drawings when playback resumes.
The Magnifying Glass drawing showed a black image.
On macOS, sending several cuts to Amplify without concatenating was wrongly available.
The Piston Streamer camera button was missing on iPadOS in portrait mode.
Long pressing a line or arrow drawing did not open the Edit Drawing menu unless the drag handles were pressed.
The Note entry button said “Skip” instead of “Submit”.
The Drawing Edit menu did not save or show the current settings correctly, and changing a text box colour had no effect. Drawing settings and editing are now handled more reliably across drawing types.
