Yeah. Us windows users aren't bound to those MacOs limitations.

We are bound to the limitations of the third-party spelling library we have to use because Windows doesn't provide a system-wide one like OS X.
We are bound to keep our formats interoperable. Having per-project spelling lists on Windows that disappear when the project is synced on iOS or OS X would probably cause more support tickets than it would be worth.

Your catuses very big words and sometimes it's really hard to understand what she/he wants to say. In this particular case, is she/he saying that we can or can't have it?

I'm confused.

Imagine the chaos that would ensue if L&L hacked up aspell and allowed ScrivWin to set per-project spelling lists. Since they can't be supported in OS X or iOS, what would happen to those per-project lists the first time a project was synched between Windows and one of the other formats?

Imagine the chaos that would ensue if L&L hacked up aspell and allowed ScrivWin to set per-project spelling lists. Since they can't be supported in OS X or iOS, what would happen to those per-project lists the first time a project was synched between Windows and one of the other formats?

OSX or iOS are also not relevant since there is no syncing of the customs lists even now, but that's OK.
What OP wants, and I support it, is, Scrivener for Windows to have such custom lists. If it's not much of a hassle.

Again, talking as if you have some kind of insider knowledge, doesn't make your argument more valid.I don't see L&L hurrying to turn the situation around.

Also, "have some understanding of how the software industry works" != "insider knowledge" just to be clear. Just like "reading and remembering what L&L have previously stated on this topic" != "insider knowledge".

No one has said they won't or can't do it on Scrivener for Windows. But hey, I may have missed a post.
