I love the concept of Causality it is exactly what I have been looking for to handle complex plotting and multi threaded stories. However can you advise when the importing from and exporting to Word DOCX will be available?
thanks
Cathy

I'm also a big fan of Causality, and I'm glad to see someone else who appreciates its capabilities.
Hey there, Cathy! Apologies for the late response. As for importing from and exporting to Word DOCX, I'm not sure when that feature will be available. However, one option could be to use a third-party tool to convert your Word documents to a compatible format, such as PDF or RTF, before importing them into Causality.
Also, if you're dealing with text in your Word documents, Smart Engines OCR could be a helpful tool to recognize and extract text from images. It might be worth checking out if you need to work with OCR content in your documents.

Hi all,
I have been a registered user for some time now and use Causality for plotting novels which I would like to finish using the authoring software Papyrusautor once the draft is complete. I just received and installed version 3.1.1 of Causality and would like to provide the following feedback:
The Export to Word (HTML) function does not work and the result is unreadable.
Export to Word (docx - file) works conditionally, only pure text.
The same applies to export/only text.
Import/Word, /Word HTML does not work.
What works as I imagine is Print to PDF, which I can also read into Word.
Thanks

Great news! Thanks Per :)
Hi, Word Import/Export is on the beta channel, and will roll out wide during the coming week.
Awesome! Very excited about this 😄
We think we're becoming ready for the alpha this week. But a little kink has arisen of something we have to refactor now. Besides that, we only have to do the document upgrader and some of the videos, which indicates that we're close to the end.
Good news Per, can’t wait to see v3.0. Any ETA on when we will see it?
cheers

Ah thanks Jeff, good to know!

We just need to get 3.0 out and stable, and this is one of the only things that will be allowed to get in front of collaboration.
While I can't wait for the Word export function too, I've found it works ok to export as HTML and then open with Word. It seems to carry across all the formatting, indents, chapter headings etc. The only thing I need to change are the margins, which is a two second job. Totally awesome program!
That's great, so that could be an option in the import dialog. Super tip!
