 @6e9427cf Victory! It was actually quite simple - I went to Scrivener - Settings - Scratchpad and was able to change it there!

Thanks for your help.

 @5862bfff 
My day job includes running tech support (at least until I retire soon). I am glad I could help! Now I know the feature exists and I can use it, too.  Win-win!

 @6e9427cf BTW, I see in your bio you studied non-western culture, folklore, and mythology. I got my BA with a double major in English and a self-created major of comparative mythology, focusing on Celtic and Hindu. And I had enough anthropology courses for a minor. . . 

<grin>

 @5862bfff Yep. A real tell was when I took a mythology class and I never got an answer wrong. I even got all the extra-credit answers right. I think I'm just a sucker for good and strange stories. So I graduated and became a programmer for my day job. Actually, started as a tech writer. Showing a published novel does give you a certain panache. The degree did help. I excel at creating alien cultures (both human and ET).

Did you stick with things related to your major, or take a detour like I did?
