Things I suddenly discovered Scrivener could do!

Scrivener Scrivener for macOS

When in full screen mode and you move your cursor way to the right, the Inspector suddenly appears. Move your cursor way over to the left and the Binder appears. THIS IS FRIGGIN’ TOTALLY KEWL!

Almost as nifty as my accidentally discovering “Merge all windows” a few years ago. Still have no idea how I did that.

For anyone who thinks this option sounds cool but isn’t seeing the behavior:

  • It’s in Mac OS Full Screen Mode, not Scrivener’s own Composition Mode.
  • It’s a configurable option, in the Settings → Appearance → Full Screen pane.

Is this normally ticked or did I do it without knowing what I was doing? :upside_down_face:

Normally ticked. So this behavior is the default.
