BETA3 is out


Since the release I got myself some inspiration of what could be added to this tool to make it even better. Let me give you an overview of what I have added in the new version:

  • You now can add custom information to your characters and worldbuilding.The aspects I put in there are way to few to cover every aspect of every novel. With the ability to add custom information you are now basically able to add unlimited additional information.



  • Added two new editors to keep track of your arcs (story, character, relationship, etc.) and your notes.
    • In the arc editor you can write out different arcs per scene to have a more detailed overview.
    • The note editor helps you to store information which doesn't fit in any other category (e.g. research material, or to dos).



  • Added two new overviews: the timeline view and the plotgrid view.
    • In the timeline view you can see the duration of every seen and the elapsed time between scenes. In addition you can see which characters, items and locations appear in which scene.
    • The plotgrid view gives you an overview of all the different arcs per scene and puts them side by side.



  • More options for the manuscript export:
    • The book title as well as chapter and scene headings can now be formatted separately
    • The name of the point of view character can now be displayed under the scene heading
    • Chapter headings can now be turned off
    • Scene headings can now be displayed as numbers instead of titles
    • Page numbers can now be inserted
    • Special copyright or dedication pages can now be added between book title and table of contents if one adds a chapter with the name "Copyright"


  • There are also some minor things I added/changed:
    • Gui headings are now bold
    • Added font preview to options
    • Scenes now have a field to enter the time it takes place, as well as fields to enter the scenes duartion and the time elapsed since the last scene
    • Chapter and scene batch creation now adds special copyright and dedication pages
    • Added button to worlbuilding gui to remove all worldbuilding informations
    • Added button in import gui to select all/none checkboxes at once


  • And last but not least some bug fixes:
    • Chapter could be overwritten when new chapter was added and moved
    • Draft couldn't have the same name as chapter or scene
    • Deletion message for characters, items and locations asked for deleting drafts
    • Pictures weren't removed if path wasn't set
    • In the outline view the chapter summaries where mixed up
