My poking around got me pretty much where I’m happy-ish with Scrivener’s appearance. If you don’t use as many colors as I do in the interface, it shouldn’t bother you as much.Įxcept for a few random complaints (all about appearance, and I’ve given you the fixes for most of them), I think Scrivener die-hards will enjoy the update. The Collections area is fairly blah now, as the new interface allows for less customization in there. I do miss the rounded edges of Scrivener 1.9.9 in the binder, but the square shapes allow for more view of the binder. So I’m assuming PC users will have to wait three or four years to get it in version 4.0Īll in all, I’m excited about the public release of Scrivener 3.0. It would be nice, but I’m in what probably is the final Beta of 3.0, and no sign of it yet. This would be especially great, as now you can concentrate on going through and finding all the verbs in one of your edit stages, and editing them. The other parts of speech gray out, leaving only the chosen words. Scrivener for the Mac has identifiers that show you how many adverbs you have, or adjectives. What don’t we get? The parts of speech identifiers. You’ll understand this more once you get it and are playing with it. You can also “Copy formatting” and “paste formatting” if you have a specific format you want your text in for only a few chapters. Scrivener changes its formatting in 3.0, but if you don’t want to spend time customizing your formatting, once you import one of your old Scrivener projects, it will allow you to copy the formatting and set as default. You couldn’t do that in 1.9.9.0, but you can in 3.0.Ī VERY handy feature is the ability to copy formatting. I want to be able to choose my word count, the deadline it has to be done by, show me how many words per day. We want the same deadline abilities that Mac users have. The biggest change is of course the deadline features PC users have asked. That will give you the old familiar cork board back. “Show text lines” I have checked, as well as “show shadows”. My choices on the display are corners>square, label indicator>corner mark, cork board background>cork board pattern. Personally, since almost every Scrivener user is going to put it back, I think they should leave it as a default and let people choose.
File>Options>Appearance>Cork board lets you put it back. The cork board disappears in Scrivener 3.0 – it’s still there, just not displayed as a cork board.
Scrivener 3.0 has different names for the options, “show as background color in binder.” Because it creates more of a wash effect, I don’t choose to color the icons any more. I choose by default “binder”, “icons” and “index cards”. I go immediately to the view command in the task bar and “use label color in”.

Hopefully, you learned how to modify your working environment in Scrivener! I personally like a slightly more colorful environment. The icons are smaller, and the task bars take up less screen real estate. It’s actually a very comfortable working environment. The chapter folders are round, the scenes are round. In Scrivener 1.9.9.0, everything is so round. The thing I noticed about Scrivener 3.0 is… the angles. I’ve been using the beta versions to get used it, and so far I’ve been giving feedback on the beta version. Mac users are in their second year of Scrivener 3.0, and of course Windows users are still waiting. Windows versions always seem to be missing the cool features that the Mac version has. One of the benefits to having a mac is of course you can have Scrivener in all its glory. It’s odd how the interface in Mac is so sterile, so blah – and people line up to buy them.
