Viewing a Collection as a Container

After you create a collection, you can work with it in a Scrivenings session, the Corkboard, or the Outliner, just like any other container.

To select a collection as a container, follow these steps:

1. If the Collections pane isn’t visible, click the Collections button in the toolbar to view it.

2. Select the tab of the collection that you want to view.

3. Click the collection header (refer to Figure 18-5).

Windows users, Shift-click to select the files in the collection.

The files appear in Composite mode in whichever container view you used last.

4. From the View menu, choose the desired view mode.

Or you can click the appropriate Group View mode button on the toolbar.
