Select Multiple Files in the Binder

To select multiple contiguous files in the Binder—files that are next to each other—click one file, hold down the Shift key, then click the last one in the series that you want to select.

To select non-contiguous files—files that aren’t next to each other—on a Mac, click one file, hold down the Command key, then click the other files you want to select. In Windows, press Control and Alt.

Perhaps you’ve broken up your manuscript by scenes, and, in one chapter, consecutive scenes alternate between different point-of-view characters. You may nevertheless want to read through all of the scenes of one character to see how they flow. You can use Scrivenings view for this; just select the files that contain those scenes, and start reading (and editing).

When you select a container—a folder, such as the Manuscript folder in Figure 22 (earlier)—the Editor displays all the items in that folder in a Scrivenings view. So if you want to view your entire manuscript as if it were a single file, just click the Manuscript folder. If you store chapters in folders, with individual files for each scene, you can view an entire chapter by clicking the folder that contains that chapter’s files.
