I’m running Scrivener 3.2.3 Mac OS. In Assign Section Layouts I only have four active section types: Part Heading, Chapter Heading, Scene, and Front Matter. Everything is displaying correctly except that the section title repeats under the Chapter Heading that already includes the section title.
For Chapter Heading I chose Chapter Title. For Scene, I chose Section Text. I’ve tried different combinations and have been unable to get it to just display the Section Title once. I’m stumped and would be grateful for any clues about what I might be able to do to correct this. Thanks in advance.
Thank you very much for your response. The Scene is designated Section Text only. From what I can tell, version 3 did away with the little check boxes. There are only WYSIWYG representations that you click on to assign section layouts.
Thank you for your gracious offer, Vincent_Vincent. I will take a screen shot of a section of my folders and post it. Again, I am grateful for your help.
Does the extra title have the same formatting, or different?
If it’s the same, check to see if the actual Binder title of the item is correct. If your Binder title is “This is Chapter One This is Chapter One,” then that’s what Scrivener will use.
IT’S SOLVED!! Thanks to the Compile Format Design tip with graphics. I had no idea that was there. Many thanks for your time and efforts to help me, Vincent_Vincent and kewms!!!
I went into the Compile Format Designer and clicked off a title checkbox for Titled Section. The title was already included under the Chapter with Title. I didn’t realize that a double click on the format at left in the Compile window allowed you to make a copy and control those boxes. I hope this makes sense.
