This one is for the long game: the threads you plant early and pay off books later.
A series seed is a promise you make to a reader and keep much later: a buried prophecy, a hidden heir, an object that only matters three books on. Now you can plant a seed in any chapter and mark where it grows and where it finally pays off, even in a different book. Track it right from the chapter you're drafting in the Promises sidecar, or open the Seed Tracker to see every seed across the whole series at a glance, each with its own roomy notes to hold the thread for as long as the series runs.
Italics and bold you've written into your chapters now come through correctly in your EPUB, Web, and print PDF exports instead of flattening to plain text. Long chapter titles also wrap neatly in print instead of running off the edge of the page.
Deleting a chapter now spells out exactly what goes with it (its outline materials and linked promises) and points you to Move to Stash, which keeps everything and just tucks it out of the manuscript. And the reload keyboard shortcut can no longer discard unsaved work by accident.
