Change Log:

NOTE yWriter5 has been released for Windows XP/Vista: http://www.spacejock.com/yWriter5.html
4.0.90 Remembers the column widths in the chapter/scene lists
4.0.89 Entering a non-numeric font size in the editor would cause a crash
4.0.88 More logging to identify the cause of an Error 402 when adding a new scene from within another.
4.0.86 Now clears the character list if you close the current project
4.0.85 A small fix for Linux/Wine users - no more type mismatch on startup
4.0.84 Remembers the previously-used import folder
4.0.82 A few minor bug fixes plus a Russian translation file.
4.0.80 Fixed the bug where the display jumps to chapter one after dragging & dropping scenes
4.0.80 Fixed a bug where empty RTF files weren't being created on close
4.0.79 Fixed the undo issue when applied to a newly opened scene
4.0.77 Fixed the hang when you double-click an edited character name on the end of a line
4.0.75 Fixed the 'Print selected chapters' report
4.0.75 Reminder than ALL data in the lower tab control on the main screen is READ ONLY.
4.0.75 Viewing a scene from the storyboard no longer hides the last column from the storyboard display.
4.0.75 Closing a project now clears the notes & chapter desc fields correctly
4.0.74 The character list now prints correctly (word wrap for desc, bio, goals and notes)
4.0.71 A few more updates, and fixed a bug where the viewpoint list wouldn't refill when adding a new scene.
4.0.58 There's a new 'Save project data to single file' option under the Tools-Backup menu. It's still new and experimental, but the idea is that it will make it easier to transfer your project around ... save to a single ywc4 file, and the Project-Open command will read it back in again, splitting it into a proper project.




This software is free to download and use, but please feel free to donate towards my projects. Funds raised lead to new features and updates, and they also free me up to write more quick start guides, help files and so on.

(Don't be embarrased to chip in the minimum ... it's better to donate $5 than not donate $25.)
