structure isn't one that YWriter can see or recognize. YWriter literally can't "see" its own RTF files, if I save it to Dropbox, from the Win8 laptop, because it uses the Dropbox for Mobile "app," really, not the usual Dropbox Desktop. None of these are really designed to work with a cloud environment. Snowflake Pro, (useful, but also, not really designed for a cloud environment), and,.LSBXE (all hat, no cattle, but I have some stuff in it that I don't want to lose-worthless as a writer's program, IMHO).I've been a happy YWriter user for a long time, but the way YWriter actually works-or doesn't-is giving me some agita with my Win8 laptop. I'm testing Aeon Timeline for that very purpose, but it's about the cost of Scrivener.Īeon Timeline is geared specifically for writers. DOCX files but I don't know of any, aside from MS Word, that always translates highly formatted Word files correctly.
STORYMILL VS SCRIVENER 2015 PROFESSIONAL
I suspect my unease with Scrivener will diminish with use and time.Īlmost every professional writer who talks about their output mentions you cannot really get away from using MS Word because that format is preferred by most customers for reviewing and final writer's output. That is a little funny because after many years of using MS Word at work I'm almost completely at ease using it.
However I very much like the extra layer of database-like functions, such as notes on chapters, tags, and such that are generally lacking in MS Word and the way you can create and organize smaller chunks of writing. The developers do things their way and put things in different menu locations than I sometimes expect. I'm not entirely comfortable with Scrivener's interface. Each of us prefers different features or is most comfortable with different interfaces.
I doubt there exists a "best" writing tool.
