The cursor location is the name of the scene (or
chapter) that the cursor is currently located in; the
others should be self-explanatory.

In order to help you distinguish between scenes,
alternating scenes have a light background color
(shown at right).

Although the top half of the split-screen window
contains the chapterʼs text, chapters still have notes.
The chapterʼs notes are available in the metadata
pane.

Tips:
They may not look it, but chapter notes
are rich text! You can use bold, italic,
different fonts, even images if you want.

The approximate page count refers to a
formula used by publishers to estimate
the page counts of published books.
These are not intended to correspond to
page counts on 8.5 x 11 inch paper!
