Available to the Master subscription tier and above. Upgrade here.

Deleting specific cenes or chapters in Manuscripts isn't a permanent action, and you can always recover them later. Here's how to do it!

 

How to delete a chapter or a scene

  1. Access Manuscripts by clicking Manuscripts in the left sidebar.
  2. Drag and drop the chapter or scene from the list on the left, to the bin folder on the bottom of that list directly.
  3. Your chapter/scene will not be permanently deleted, it will be moved to the bin folder at the bottom left. In the future, you can recover it by simply dragging it out of the bin.

Alternatively, you'll also find a Move to Trash button when you click the gear icon on the right. Clicking this button will also move it into the Bin folder.
