Thanks, glad it's getting some use. I've never written a stage play so I had to look up the formatting. Is this an accurate representation? http://ptfaculty.gordonstate.edu/lking/CPF_play_formatting2.pdf
Currently no, the action elements can't be aligned within Emacs. I never actually made action an element per se rather everything that's not any other element is counted as action. That said, I'll make sure to fix this come version 2.0.
Exporting is another story since it's just CSS. Customize the value of fountain-export-style-template
:
p.action {
margin-left: 2.5in; /* this line added */
white-space: pre-wrap;
orphans: ${action-orphans};
widows: ${action-widows};
}
I'm currently rewriting a lot of the internals, so please let me know if there are any other compatibility issues with playwriting.

Thanks for the quick reply! I'll look forward to 2.0, but I'll go with
your suggestion of editing the CSS export style and make good use of the
Fountain mode as is.
With regard to playwriting format, I've never found a "standard". Every
screenwriting app seems to provide slightly different stageplay templates,
though they are all similar to the link you've provided. I'm personally
enamored with the stageplay export in John August's "Highland" app, which
itself seems to be based on Final Draft's "Broadway Musical" Template
(not the Dramatist Guild version) . Lyrics are well handled in these.
Should you want PDFs or specs of these, just let me know.
Anyway I'm still amazed by your emacs implementation. It seems to blend
the best features of writing in fountain in Slugline, Highland, and Sublime
Text!

I've just tagged v2.0 that allows aligning action and allows aligning elements to different columns based on the document format
metadata. Should be on MELPA-stable soon.
