OTHER: Movie Magic software question (V.O.)

Just ran into a Movie Magic Screenwriter issue I never encountered before, oddly.

I have a character looking up at the night sky, so while we see the night sky the character speaks with V.O.
ASHLEY (V.O.)
blah blah blah
Then a line of action.
Then we see her as she speaks her next line, so no V.O.
ASHLEY (CONT'D)
blah blah blah

But I can not get MMS to format the second line of dialogue without a CONT'D (which would imply continued V.O., something I do not want). Any trick to solving this?
 
You take out the "cont" extensions in formatting on the "chararacter" tab. It will have a box to uncheck.
 
Format >>> Element Styles >>> Character Names >>> Character Continued as... >>> Extension (check box for "Only when Extensions Match")
