How to set words target for a Folder?

[MaierWerx]

I’m working in the Windows version, but trying to figure out the same thing…
I can go to Project->Project Targets and set the Total Word Target for the Entire Document, but how do I do it for individual Folders (in the Outline).

For instance, if I have a 3 Act Structure and want a Total Target (word count) for each Act (and all subfolders), how/where can I set the target so I can see it in the Outline?

In Outline View, I can change the “Title and Synopsis”, “Label”, “Status”, “Section Type”, but when I try to change “Total Target”, it doesn’t allow me to change it from “0”.

Thank you.

Hello Maierwerx,

Go to outline view and add the target (see screenshot) by clicking little arrow to bring up menu.

Then I added Total word count as it tidies up and stops the targe figure appearing right at the end. Double left click on the flashing 0 or use the up and down arrows to set a figure.

You probably tried clicking on the 0 that appeared in total word count. Which would stay at 0 if you had nothing in that document. It just gives the total .
