marguerite Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Hi, Steve: How do I reset the project and session goals? I have deleted my entire manuscript and begun a new one for NaNoWriMo, but Storyist still retains the old word count in its memory, even though I have emptied the trash. As a result, I can set a new goal of 50,000 words, but Storyist is convinced that I have already surpassed it, making the goals effectively useless. Thanks!

marguerite Posted November 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Never mind. The goal reset itself when I began typing. Weird, but not a problem. Best, M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird, but not a problem.Best, M I agree that it's not a big problem, but a feature like this should be a lot more intuitive. I think I'm going to make a Feature Request. - Thoth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marguerite Posted November 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 Well, actually, it's weirder than that. But I think this must be a problem with the beta version I'm using, so I will report it there. Best, M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
