Word Substitutions List

My Windows laptop died, forcing me to work on my Macbook Air. I had a fair grasp of Scriv for Windows, but am finding the Mac version something of an uphill battle.

I had a list of word substitutions on my Windows system (e.g. #fgd rendered as Fitzgerald) that I have difficulties replicating on the Mac. I assume I am doing something silly. I have looked at menu option:

Scrivener --> Preferences --> Corrections

and assumed I needed to go into System Text Prefernces… everytime I try pressing that button, however, nothing happens.

Please help.

Never mind. It seems i have a way to go in getting to grips with how Macs work
