Hi Per, with regards to word count this is how I use it in other apps: In Google Docs I have to select the text that I want counted. This is because otherwise all meta text ("review date:...") would be counted as well and I don't need that. In Scrivener the word count for each document is shown in the status bar at all times. I find this to be useful and unobtrusive. When I select text then only the selected part is counted. When I select multiple documents and display their content together (a Scrivener feature similar to defining a filter in Causality), then the combined content is counted. This definitely meets all my needs and then some. In Causality I combine beats in groups, whereby each group represents one video script. And the word count for each group is all I need. Thanks
