Manual Topic
Back to manual- Chapters is the manuscript-facing tab where chapter lists, scene placement, and active drafting stay closest together.
- Use Chapters when you want the clearest manuscript-style view of the story rather than a structural or reference-first view.
- This tab works best when you are deciding where scenes live in chapter order, expanding draft text, or checking the flow of neighboring scenes.
- If you draft out of order from beats, treat Chapters as the place where that material eventually settles into readable story order.
