Joolissa Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hi there I'm not sure if this is a bug or a setting (if so I can't find it to try to edit it), but I noticed that if you type a long enough chapter title that suddenly Storyist throws all but the first line onto a new page. It happens every third line. So if you type one line of chapter title your fine, even if your title is 2 lines it'll stay on one page, but as soon as you get to a third line, it grabs line 2 & 3 and tosses them onto a new page. Then if you keep going.... it repeats. I would expect it to keep the whole chapter title on one page unless it actually filled up the whole page, so I find it's current behavior a bit perplexing. - Joules ps. I've got the latest copy of Storyist and I'm on Mountain Lion. I'm using the blank template, which I then added a novel manuscript to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hi Joules, I'm having trouble reproducing this. Here are a couple of things to try: If you've added window/orphan control to the Chapter Title style, disable it. It could be that you've encountered a state (based on what text is in your file) where the layout algorithm is left with no good layout options. Switch to Normal view mode (View > Normal) and back. If there is an issue with the layout code, this will cause the layout to start from scratch. -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joolissa Posted February 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hi I opened up a new novel project and can reproduce it immediately in Page View. Widow & Orphan is not enabled, however switching to Normal View and back fixes the issue. Here's a screen shot of it getting thrown onto a second page. Let me know if there's something else I should try or reset etc. etc. - Jules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
