markweaver Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 I am trying to export a text file but it is not in the export list when I use the command. There is no reference to this issue in guidelines help. Perhaps I created the file in a different project than the default (or original) project that is appearing in the export list, but can't figure out where that came from either. Thanks. I am using current versions of Storyist and Capitan on a new MacBook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Hi Mark, Welcome to the forums. Text files, story sheets, and folders should all appear in the export panel. Perhaps you're looking for a chapter or section (which are parts of a text file) instead of the text file itself? -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markweaver Posted December 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Thanks for the INSTANT reply, Steve, really appreciate it (trying to get this thing off to to my critique group). I think that is the issue. The file was hidden in a novel folder I hadn't named. still trying to learn the conventions. I can't find anywhere in the guide that fully describes the file structure. I can't tell where the text file got saved to (which project). When I hit the project view icon for the text file it is dimmed. I guess that means I didn't save it to a project (that I created it separate from a project as a standalone?). Will keep doing trial and error on this, but I think I stumbled on how it exported, but it was by accident. I suggest filling out the guide with more detail on these issues. I hate to bother you with these obvious things, but I hunted through the guide for these issues and there were gaps. Have a great New Year!!!
