Clicking + at the bottom left and choosing New Section does the same. That adds the section and the section separator at the same time. Could you be adding chapters instead?Īnother quick way to add a section is to click on the section name above where you want the new section to appear, and type Command+Enter. I'm not sure why you're seeing the centered text when you add a section: I don't see that behavior, no matter how I add it. You can select the # and apply the Section Separator style, but the new section is already there. There are several easy ways to add a section. If I can resolve the zoom and the section break bugs - I'm sold. I may be doing it wrong so all suggestions as to the best and simplest way to add section breaks much appreciated.Īnyway I hope this doesn't come across as a whinge - I just wanted to see if these issues are easily resolved by people in the know. This double enter way of getting a section break would be great if it worked but it doesn't at the moment for me. Proceeding text goes back to left justified. It doesn't add the section sheet or the hash separator and just positions the curser and text for the next line as centre justified. The other way I have tried to add sections is by using the window that automatically pops up in the document if you press enter twice in a row, making it clear I suppose that you want a section break - the little window pops up and I press enter again when "section separator" is highlighted but it doesn't work. Why this extra centre justified line added? I just waste time having to delete it. Why? All subsequent text goes back to the default left justified. When I add a section using the pop up window in the bottom left corner, it adds the section sheet all fine but in the document it then positions the curser as centre justified, almost like it would for a title. Please tell me I'm wrong and that you have more controls on zoom hidden somewhere?! People who write for long periods each day need more fine tuning of this important ergonomic. Why no ability to adjust in percentages (even Word has this)? This could be a clincher for me as with the current controls I can't get a comfortable size text for how I have my macbook setup as a workstation. simple layout, uncluttered, not trying to be everything to all men.
#Storyist demo full#
lovely full screen look, paper texture.

I'm currently running the Storyist demo and here are my thoughts after a couple of days: I've got 60 pages into a novel using word and need to sort out better software, obviously.Īfter spending a fair bit of time looking at what's out there I've got it down to Storyist vs Scrivener.
