Hello there!

I’m writing a novel and I just discovered the target option which is great and motivates me a look. I mean… was great!

Today “Session target” word count is stuck to zero while the “Manuscrit target” goes up as I write.

What is going on? Please help!

Click on the Options… button in the target window, and in the Session Target section, try enabling the Count text written anywhere in the project option. With that disabled, any typing you do outside of the Draft folder, or in documents within the Draft that have their “Include in Compile” checkbox removed, will be ignored.
