I find it challenging to read and write in a narrow, off-center text field with, or without, visual clutter on either side. Even when I tweak the formatting to make the text width as wide as allowed, and layout at 'fit content' it's still too narrow. And when I put it in focus mode it's even more distracting to see a big blank field of white on the right hand side of the screen, sucking my attention over, with the text field off-center to the left. Or if I open up codex the text field is off center to the right with the visual clutter (codex) on the left. What would be ideal is a way to make the writing text field as wide as you choose to make your browser window, centered, with the option to reduce both the codex on the left and that other visual clutter on the right. Basically, can we just have it look like Pages? Simple, uncluttered, centerable.

Another request to be able to collapse what's visible in the grid view to just the info we choose (some sort of EXPAND settings). I wanted to just move a couple of chapters to after a few chapters later. As I have summaries of all my scenes, it almost always means each chapter takes up the full height of the screen. I have to drag and sloooowly scroll down the page until it finally gets to the area I want to move the chapter. It's incredibly frustrating and there's no easier way or view mode to do this sort of scene/chapter moving.

WHy do I need to re-add all the details if the information is all within the text? The point of AI should be able to scrub through the text and gather that data.

Hi, the AI model name are super long and often, I can't get to see the end to know if I'm on the right model or not, especially if it is one that ends in "free". It'd be great if it were wider. Thanks.

Re-ordering scenes and chapters to new acts is cumbersome, if not impossible in some cases. The scene summaries get in the way of this action. If they are too long, it becomes near impossible to drag things to where they need to go. The summaries cannot be hidden or obfuscated to help with this. If a user has many acts, scenes or chapters. Re-arranging is extremely difficult. It seems like you could provide another view within Plan alongside Grid, Matrix, Outline. Which is just purely Organize. No summaries, just titles. Just the minimum elements a user would need to efficiently re-organize, re-structure a project.

I would love the ability to edit chats like in chatgpt and playground. I find that I sometimes don't like the answers i'm getting and have to start the entire chat in another window. it would be great to just edit the chat.

The current NovelCrafter interface requires switching from "Write mode" to "Plan mode" to access the "Chat with Scene" feature, then relocating the specific chapter being worked on before being able to discuss it. ## Workflow Disruption This mode-switching requirement: Interrupts creative flow during crucial writing moments Forces multiple unnecessary clicks and navigation steps Creates a significant time burden, especially when frequent consultations are needed Disconnects the writing process from the analytical/assistance process that should complement it ## Suggested Improvements Direct Access : Implement a "Chat with Scene" button or sidebar toggle directly within Write mode Context Retention : Automatically reference the current scene/chapter when initiating chat Keyboard Shortcut : Add a hotkey combination to instantly open chat for the active scene Floating Access : Create a minimalist floating button that can be clicked without changing modes Split View Option : Allow simultaneous viewing of writing space and chat interface These changes would significantly improve user experience by maintaining creative momentum while still providing access to NovelCrafter's valuable AI assistance features.

Everytime selcting model to generate prose is taking too much time. I thinks it's better if we can select the model in default and then we can just press Generate prose to get output. I thinks having two types is better option.

Make an option to have dark interface and white manuscript, cards for better focus.

When rewriting and editing, it would be nice to have AI output in one when its selected for rewrite so you can pick and choose. Overwriting in place makes it very hard to compare. One screen for original text the second one has the not merged AI response of that text. Think 4-5 paragraphs at a time if not more in the second screen.
