Scrivener 3.5
Literature & Latte has released Scrivener 3.5 with support for macOS 26 Tahoe and improvements to alleviate trackpad scrolling lag. The long-form writing tool also receives a new Liquid Glass app icon, works around an Apple bug where lists could take on the formatting of the preceding paragraph, updates text caret resizing code, ensures project search no longer closes the composition mode window if the latter is in a different space, fixes a bug where captions beneath images would not be recognised as captions, and introduces a slightly longer delay for the auto-complete suggestions list appearing during typing to avoid choppy typing caused by Apple adding an animation whenever a suggestion list appears. Scrivener 3.5 now requires a minimum of macOS 11 Big Sur. ($59.99 new, free update, 117 MB, release notes, macOS 11+)
[Sorry, just noticed Adam was asking for experiences of the latest update. Still, the following might be of interest]
As Adam has said share your experiences of Scrivener, here are mine.
One of my authors decided to use it to draft a book based on his science and technology blog, so of course I also used it to edit his material. While only microscopically scraping the surface of its capabilities – which rather made me wish I was a creative writer and not a mere editor – I found it a very benign and stable environment in which to work. In stark contrast to The Word Processor We Shall Not Mention.
