for drawing storyboards an asset would be:
- draw each panel on a frame in timeline
- convert each frame to a clip
- edit the clips further in project view
why? so you can use the light table while drawing stoyboard panels. as far as i can see this is not possible? (it's logical as which frame of clip the lightbox should aim at?) it's why one would choose toonboom storyboard over tv paint.

the "Frame > bookmark " is an option when exporting storyboards, this allows you to export multiple designated frames from each clip into a storyboard publish, by bookmarking them.
I see no reason why the lightable should not be able to display bookmarked frames from following or preceding clips.
feature request! (it probabbly already is)
