Hi there
I am working since a few months on AT, great programm! I just have one thing, that I don’t get. When I’m syncing to scrivener (writing screenplays), the summary of AT is put in the title of the scene in scrivener, but not in the proper summary tab. That means I end up with super long scene names in scrivener. If I change them to something more technical, I lose the summary created in AT. Is there anyway to fix that. Is it maybe related to my use of scrivener in german? See Screenshot, thanks for help!
This is the view, when I’m in outline. If you see the XXX: There is normaly the place the summary should go.
I found it out ! I just didn’t put the summary in the corresponding box in AEON, graphically I was attracted by the other one

An update, not sure if anyone of the DEV Team reading. If I manually move the summary from the title to the summary tab in AT, SYNCING BACK IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY that means, I will lose at least 1/3 of the summarys, ending up with some scene losing their summary. When syncing back to AT I did lose them definitely. So for me it’s going back to put the summary in the scene name tab in AT, because that works. Also I think it comes in much handier to edit directly into the tab, without having to click three times to access the summary or edit it in the inspector tab.
Also just to finish with my feedback: I programmed a little tool to duplicate scenes, with the programm magic keyboard, to have that simple task done by COMMAND D. Have a good day! J
I haven’t encountered the syncing issue you are experiencing.
I map Label to Scrivener: Title and Summary to Scrivener: Synopsis.
Out of curiosity, how did you set up your syncing?

Hi Steve
It’s the same for me. I think it’s strange that we link LABEL to title.
I was able to sync the summarys from AT, but since it was incomplete and I had to refresh the outline, click on every story step and still didn’t get all of them it became too awkward and I moved to just put the summary in the title.
Thanks for checking!

Hi @arsonista,
Some things are named a bit differently in Aeon Timeline and Scrivener (like Label and Title), but the way they’re shown in Steve’s screenshot is how those fields are intended to be mapped for best results. I’m not sure why it wasn’t working for you as expected when mapped that way.
If you make a quick screen recording of what happens when you try, or you’re happy to send us a copy of your files, email them to us at support@aeontimeline.com and we’ll look into it further.
