It would save some editing time if Scrivener's spellchecker had the option of checking only highlighted text similar to the way Microsoft Word's spellchecker functions. I would also like the option of "ignore all," the default being to ignore only one occurrence of a spelling not found in ...
(Build 049) Typing in full screen mode raises Scrivener.exe CPU usage to 97% when quickly typing, which renders full screen unusable due to lag. In binder view, with cursor in the document text field and holding down any key for infinite repeat increases Scrivener's CPU usage to 94%. Normal typing ...
I've also experienced missing text after using the "Split with Selection as Title" command. 1. Under XP, using an rtf file created in Word 2007, I copied text from Word 2007 and pasted text into Note Pad. 2. I then copied and pasted that text from Note Pad to an open Scrivener text file. (...
Ioa, Thanks for posting the information regarding v. 2 of Scrivener. It's very encouraging to learn v. 2 should continue to run on older Macs. I forgot to include my 400 MHz G3 Pismo laptop running 10.4 (connected to an external monitor) to list of Macs I've successfully run Scrivener on. ("Suc...

Hello, Keith. Can you tell me what the minimum OS requirements will be for Scrivener v. 2.0? I'm currently running Scrivener on several older Macs (400 Mhz G4 towers & Pismo Powerbook) that are chugging along at 10.4.11. I'd like to start planing for a hardware upgrade if v. 2.0 requires one, th...
For novel writing in binder view, I set up something like: Manuscript -Part 1 --Chapter 1: subtitle ---Scene 1: subtitle ---Scene 2: subtitle ---Scene 3: subtitle --Chapter 2: subtitle etc. -Part 2 etc. # # # If I want to insert a chapter or scene, I use a letter following the chapter or scene numbe...
