(Reposting from Beta forum) Current behavior: Scrivener uses two different types of widgets: integrated panels like the Binder and Inspector, and pop-ups like the Styles panel.

Thanks.

Continuing from this discussion. I'm suggesting the following enhancement for editing styles through the "styles" panel: ⋅  R-click style, choose "edit style"(or right click a blank space and choose "define style") ⋅  Cursor starts blinking in line a...

I've already given you one way in which the current method is superior And I've shown you two in which it's inferior. That being said, I'm not suggesting taking it away, I'm suggesting an enhancement. Nothing you have suggested offers any practical advantages over this method: you're simply used to...

System specs:
Scrivener v. 2.9.0.10
Windows 10

Current behavior:
R-clicking on the main toolbar allows toggling it off; R-clicking on the "format" toolbar does nothing

Expected behavior:
R-clicking the "format" toolbar provides similar functionality.

System specs:
Scrivener v. 2.9.0.10
Windows 10

Current behavior:
One can only customize the main toolbar and the "format" toolbar

Expected behavior:
One is able to customize the status bar in a similar fashion to the other two.

Of course there's a method - there's a method in Word and Latex too - the question is of ease and comfort. Editing styles through the text is like chopping vegetables on the dining table instead of in the kitchen - sure, it's possible, and "the veggies will eventually get there", but do yo...

What I mean is this is the problematic scenario I was referring to all along.

That's exactly what I'm talking about.

Again, you're both assuming I want to apply that style now . I don't. I want to deal with the formatting now, and apply it later. It's a different usage scenario than what you're both suggesting, which the current way - which uses the text as a controller for the styles - complicates needlessly. Bre...

the functionality *is* there where it's needed because you're acting directly on the text But you're not looking to act on the text - you're looking to act on the styles . What if I want to modify the styles (or create new ones) without modifying the text? Then I need to do three actions instead of...

I appreciate you making that clear, and I agree regarding Word . Why would you want that? Usability. We expect functionality to reside where it is needed; if modifying one thing requires changing another which is conceptually unrelated and some distance away (esp. if it's the text, which is the conc...

Well, I hereby suggest a new feature (which is actually old - common in "word processors"): editing styles.
