...why didn't I think of that ... probably because you would loose all of the proper synopsis features, e.g.: - no more synopses on corkboard cards - no more synopses right under the title in outliner - no more formatting of synopsis font in options - plus probably the loss of a lot more features a...
JohnL is right for the Windows version. Scrivener behaves differently from what one would expect by the experience with standard word processors. E.g. in Word, OpenOffice or LibreOffice, it suffices to select the text of a paragraph (not necessary to select the paragraph mark as well ) and then e.g....
Here is an image of how it might look like. Check out this video tutorial describing how to set up this kind of layout (but there is already a standard layout called Dual Navigation provided, which is close to this one) : https://www.literatureandlatte.com/learn-and-support/video-tutorials/copyholde...
Hi GARPU, could you tell me about your wine settings? I tried quite a few WINE versions up to 3.10-staging but none of them solved the issue. On the contrary, everything above 2.21-staging gave me problems with the menus appearing on the wrong screen, once I shifted scrivener from one screen to the ...
There are two dialogs in Scrivener where the selected elements are full y covered by the selection background colour (in my case blue) without the text of the selection shining through. This is the case in the bookmark dialog and in the compile dialog. All other places exhibit proper behaviour in th...
Hello, I did not understand all of your questions but for those I hopefully understood here are my answers: 3. I think you are referring to scrivenings mode . And yes, the current beta version does not allow editing in scrivenings mode - this an often mentioned bug which will be solved by all means ...
Probably this is about not being able to edit while in Scrivening mode (but yes, the title in the header bar has "(Composite)" in it). This is a Known Issue: "Documents in Scrivenings mode cannot currently be edited."
Yes, you’re right. Given that Scrivener is no WYSIWYG editor, the use cases might really be limited (screenshots, several people discussing in front of a screen, people using the exact same editor layout). Probably true line numbering would be more useful to include in compiled output - does the Mac...
The option to arrange cards on the corkboard by label is very useful. However I (and maybe others too?) normally use a lot more labels than would be useful to display on the corkboard. E.g. I might have defined 10 labels, but only three of them might actually represent storylines (the other labels m...
When " Show Line Numbers " is activated the editor actually only counts paragraphs, not actual editor line numbers. Also genuine line numbers would change depending on editor width, indentation etc. In case the intended behaviour is to count paragraphs then maybe the option should be label...
