Status, synopses and targets

See at a glance where every scene stands, what happens in it, and how far each chapter has to go.

Status

Every scene has a status: outline, draft, revised or final, shown as a coloured dot. Change it from the scene’s right-click menu. Status does more than keep track: each build configuration chooses the least finished status it includes, so a submission can leave out scenes still in draft while a reading copy takes them all.

Synopses

A scene’s synopsis is one line under its name in the sidebar, and beside its title above the editor. Click it to edit it in place. To keep a long book compact, View → Show Synopses hides them; they still show when you hover.

Chapter targets

Give a chapter a word target from its right-click menu, and it shows its words against the target (“2,104 / 3,000”). The book’s own target, and your daily goal, live on the Statistics page.
