![]() ![]() ![]() It isn't straightforward to move between Word (whatever) and Scrivener and back. If you aren't going to be working on multiple computers, then you might not even need DB, just make sure you're backing up your precious work somewhere! ![]() Working in the Cloud is easy with Dropbox (not so straightforward with iCloud or Google for technical reasons) as long as you follow instructions. So don't expect beautiful kerning and leading (that's for after you've finished in Scrivener). What is ISN'T is WYSIWYG (it's NOT Word!). What Scrivener Is (all platforms) is a really helpful way to structure your writings. The Win version arguably could be called less slick than the Mac but it's never bothered me - just as some people are still happily using yWriter (and than hasn't been updated since the Mayflower). If the aesthetics of the appearance is a concern (apart from the gap in some functionality), then go with the Mac version. Having said that, I happily use the Win version. The Mac version is much more "refined" (this is because it's always been a Mac app and the win version came much, much later). I am still using Scrivener as I did when it was "Scrivener Gold" and was merely a glint in the developer's eye. BUT I'm not a power user - I don't use all the crap facilities that other high end users "require". I'm currently using the old version on Win and the latest Mac and iOS versions. I think the whole 3 is better than 1.9 thing is in some ways in the eye of the beholder AND in the way different people use the software. ![]()
