Full Screen & Notes

Scrivener Scrivener for macOS
1

I apologize if this has been covered. :blush:

I love working in full screen - I also have a lot of notes embedded in my text. When I click on a note I cannot get back to full screen easily and quickly. Is there any trick/shortcut to switching back and forth? Or must I exit full screen mode to get back to my main page?

Thanks & I hope all is well!

Cheers, ~katz

Hi, what do you mean by notes ā€œembedded in the textā€? Scrivener only supports annotations inside the text itself, so presumably mean document notes, which you view in the inspector?
All the best,

well, I started using these neat little hyperlinked notes in my text via Text > Scrivener Link; and found them a handy way to keep my notes nearby but out of the way. Can I view those via the inspector?

Oh, I see what you mean. Scrivener links link to other documents, so no, you canā€™t open them in the inspector - clicking on them will just open the linked document in full screen mode. You can just use cmd-[ to navigate back to the original document, though. And you have given me an idea for 2.0ā€¦
All the best,
Keith

How very enticing of youā€¦

One of these days, someone needs to get around to compiling all the little 2.0 tiddily-bits youā€™ve been dropping around the forums to see if we can tease out what else weā€™ll be getting besides the Compile Draft overhaul and the menu clean-ups.

Ha, all I can say is: lots!

Perfect, Keith. Thank so much! :smiley:

I canā€™t wait! Cause Scrivener is so good right now I can hardly bear it!!! :smiley:

Hurry upā€¦weā€™re waiting. :unamused:

This may be OT here, but since the thread is about notekeepingā€¦

I just coughed up $79 for Nisus Writer Pro 3 (after recommendations in a Software by Other Folks thread in this forum: https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/mellel-vs-nisus-question/6005/1). Iā€™m going to finally throw out Word, using NWP as the main complement to Scrivener, and I have to say that I like it intuitively.

One of the reasons is its implementation of Comments (rather similar to JNW, in fact, but better). Especially that you can hide all comments with a keyboard shortcut and call them up as easily.

Praeterea censeo Carthaginem esse delendamā€¦ hint, hint!

Best,

Joachim

I agree - that is a REALLY nice feature. 8)
