[Feature Request] Add option to exclude acts from printing

Open hyuri opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I like using acts to structure my writing, but I always remove the acts when I export my drafts as PDF. Usually, acts are more like scaffolding for me: they help me build but are not supposed to be there in the final form.

It's still nice to have the option to export acts, as some stories do make use of them in the final form for stylistic purposes.

So it would be great to have the option in the export dialog.

This is planned. We'll plan to add an option to select/deselect blocks styles user want or not to include in final exported document.

Nice! If we can get a checkbox to include/exclude only Acts for now, until the include/exclude of all block styles is implemented, that would be very useful already.

At least for me, it would skip one big step of having to:

  1. Duplicate the project file;
  2. Drag & drop all the scenes out of the acts/folders, making sure I don't mess up the order;
  3. Delete the acts/folders;

Every time I want to export a script.
