FWIW: Tried to open Scrivener on my laptop (after a short break from writing) and I am having similar issues. I'm running Linux and Scrivener under Wine so my error messages aren't quite the same. The program opens, the activation window comes up, and after entering my info., I get the error message...
Hi, il, I haven't run the linux version for several years so I don't have a "do this and you're good" answer. It's a missing library/version issue. You can probably find a solution by looking through the topic: A Mostly Complete Guide to Installing Scrivenenr on Linux. Try the last post. (...
Scapple looks like it might be useful but... I've tried with three different computers (two laptops and one desktop), and two different distros and the same issue occurs. I can drag notes to reposition them with no problem but eventually the program freezes as I try to move a note. There's a ghost i...
Hi ds, Tech Support tipped me off to a post from someone else (Sorry, I don't have the info with me) and the solution for those of us running under Wine is to install dotnet4.5. Once I installed that, updating and activating worked perfectly. Hope this helps.
Amber, Thanks for this. I intend to try it as soon as 1.) I purchase Scrivener 3 for Windows and 2.) get it running under Wine. (Installing is a snap; tweaking the UI gets complicated.) I'm with you about "Rose Madder". I think I recall a plot element or two, but... I recently reread "...
The problem for me is I've activated both Scrivener and Scapple several times in the past. (I'm using linux + wine so I used to distro-hop a bit) Previously however, the form asked for the "serial number name". This time it's asking for the email addy you used when you purchased the produc...
Paul, Go to View/Use label colors in and untick the binder option. There's no option, It's either full-width or none. If you right-click on the items in the binder, there's an option to "change icon." Is that what you're looking for?
You may move this to a differrent sub-forum if needed. I couldn't find exactly where it fits. I'm running the current windows Scrivener release on linux under wine. I tried some time ago to install the beta 10 version and failed. Never really tried to figure why. Does anyone have beta 11 running und...
rahmama, In Scrivener for Windows , v. 1.9.7.0 , go to; Project/Project Statistics. It will give you a page count for the whole manuscript and for the item you have selected in the binder. You can change the word count per page on the options tab. Of course, as mentioned in other replies, page count...
