JeremyH Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 The story I'm working on contains three different plots that converge towards the end of the story. I am attempting to connect different scenes to the correct "plot line" to keep things straight until the convergence point. The problem I'm running into is I when linking a section sheet to a plot point, the application wants me to create the plot point from within the sheet, thus creating a new plot point. I want to be able to link multiple section sheets/ scene sheets to one of three "plot points." Is there a way to do this? Thanks for any help, Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Hi Jeremy, There is. To assign a plot point to a section sheet, navigate to the plot point, right-click on the section link, and assign it to the section of your choosing. You should really be able to do that in the other direction as you were attempting to do. I'll add that to the list. -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyH Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 I have done that, but I have only been able to assign the plot point to one section sheet. I would like to be able to assign the plot point to multiple section sheets. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyH Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Here's an example of what I'm trying to do. I have three plot points and 30 sections. I'm attempting to assign "plot point one" to section sheets 1,4,8,13,18,etc. "Plot point two" to section sheets 3,7, 11, 15, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Hi Jeremy, I apologize. I misunderstood your question. Plot plots aren't assignable to more than one section. -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyH Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Any plans for a capability such as this or any ideas for a work-around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Hi JeremyH, I do have some sheet-related enhancements planned for this summer, though there aren't any dates attached yet. As a work-around, you could create a text file with your section outline and insert plot point links there. There aren't any restrictions on the number of links in a text file. -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyH Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 I know this is not the request section in the forum, but since we're already here, will you consider creating a "plot/story thread" sheet in which we can link sections, scenes, and characters? Just an organization idea. Thanks, Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
