Overview of Course1:15
Explore how Scrivener 3 uses multiple projects in tabs to organize windows and quick reference panels in macOS, and work with more than one project in compose mode.

Working with Multiple Scrivener Projects2:36
Floating Windows3:42
You can float a specific Scrivener Project or all Quick Reference Panels so that they remain on top at all times.
Full Screen Mode2:09
Full Screen Mode is a Mac feature which doesn't have an equivalent in Windows. [Not to be confused with Full Screen in the Windows Scrivener version which is actually describing Composition Mode--this has been changed in the Windows Scrivener 3 version coming out soon.]
Scrivener operates a little bit different in Full Screen Mode. New project files open up automatically into a Tab.
Moving Images, document files and file folders1:43
You can easily move images, folders, and document files from one Scrivener project to another.
Moving Text from Project to Project3:45
Move text between Scrivener projects with copy and paste, Quick Reference Panels, and the Scratchpad; drag notes or Send to a Project to append or create subdocuments.
Drag Selections of text from Project to Project without Cut and Paste1:57
Move text between projects in Scrivener 3 by dragging selections, using the arrow to move or the option key to copy, across windows and panels.
Moving Project Settings and Keywords from One Project to Another1:43
Project Settings is new in Scrivener 3. You can move most of the contents of the Project Settings via drag and drop.
Using Two Scrivener Projects in Compose Mode3:35
Using Quick Reference Panels, you can have a second project available while in Compose Mode. You can group several Quick Reference Panels from a Project in tabs.
