Scrivener is an excellent writing software that provides various writing assistance functions, such as annotation of multiple documents, overview introduction, full screen editing, snapshots, etc. It can easily and conveniently assist authors in the entire writing process from work conception, data collection, organizational structure, addition, deletion, modification to layout output.

As a professional writing software, Scrivener's directory function is very powerful and flexible. After opening a new project, you will see the binder bar, or directory tree, on the left side of the interface. The root directory of the binder has three folders by default, namely "Drafts", "Survey", and "Trash Bin". Draft "and" research "are easy to understand, the former is used to place writing content, while the latter is used to place collected data.

Full screen writing

Full screen writing is a common feature in various writing software. In full screen mode, you can set text scaling, paper position (center, left, right), paper width, and background lightness by yourself.

In full screen mode, the software defaults to typewriter mode, which means that the line being typed will automatically be placed in the middle of the screen. There is no need to wait until it reaches the bottom of the screen, and the content will jump up line by line, which is quite friendly.

Of course, in non full screen mode, you can also set the scrolling mode of the typewriter yourself. In addition, it is very convenient to directly use keyword retrieval, viewer, and document redirection functions in full screen mode.

Note taking function

Generally speaking, Scrivener has three types of notes: document notes, engineering notes, and notebooks.

• Document Notes

Document notes belong to a single document and can only be seen within the document they belong to.

• Engineering Notes

Engineering notes are notes that belong to the entire project. Suitable for placing commonly used data in current projects.

• Notepad

The memo pad is equivalent to a loose leaf notebook, shared by all projects of the Scrivener. Its content can be sent to any designated location in any project at any time.
