So i have noticed this the past 2 days when i open my current project to type out my NaNo (not in the NaNoWriMo File provided somewhere on this site) I would open open my project to the draft and open it as scrivenings and look at the bottom my word count goal i had set the last time i had it open has disappeared, but my individual word count goals for files within my draft are all the same. I have 2 folders that contain both pages and sub pages with writing, the couple big ones i had set goals for still show up in both outline and in the document its self.
I have a NaNo project–because I’m working on a series of short stories, and those are going in their own project files, etc, and this way I just copy what I’ve written for the day into the NaNo project, and use that word count.
It has a different file for each day of the month, and each file’s word count goal is set to 1667. The draft’s word count goal is set to 50,000.
When I close the file and restart it, the daily goals of 1667 are still there, but the project goal of 50,000 disappears.
Hmmm… I tried to see if my project target is resetting and although I still show my goal is 50,000 words, the progress bar is just gray and at 0%
I tried to look at the Project Statistics (CTRL+SHIFT+T) and selected the OPTIONS tab, then checked the box for “Count Sub-documents” and clicked OK, but when I opened it again the box is no longer checked.
It also seems like in Project Statistics, no matter how many documents I have set for being in various stages of “draft” (or other statuses) and no matter what document I am in when I open Project Statistics, I keep getting the same information under “Draft” on the Statistics tab:
Words: 31
Characters: 190
Pages: 1
In the default Title Page I have 31 words and 197 characters according to the information at the bottom of the writing window, so I guess that is where Project Statistics is getting its information from? Not sure.
