Hi Simon,

When a chapter is marked as unused or other, the icon changes accordingly.  The text (chapter number/title, description) remain unchanged. 

Is it possible to alter the font to italics or give it a colour different to chapters used in a book?

I'm finding it hard to tell at a glance by looking at chapter descriptions which ones are 'in' the book and which are 'on hold'.  Sometimes, it isn't convenient to drag an unused or 'other' chapter out of the way. 

For example, I've got a section where I'm working out whether a chapter belongs or not. 

I've also noticed that clicking on 'next' in a scene before a chapter marked 'other' or 'unused' opens the first scene in that 'other/unused' chapter.

Is there a way to bypass this? 

Look forward to any comments--or even suggestions about existing work-arounds that other users have uncovered...

Simon if you consider this, would you also consider adjusting the background colors of the cells in the chapter pane based on their status ( draft, polish, proof, etc al)

Much revered Simon,

I'd like to go on record with Henry and Dain. I think both of these
suggestions/requests are excellent ideas and would make yWriter even
more productive.

Thanks for considering,

Dick
