    Basically, the story layout maker is awesome because it let's you do so much stuff, but it kind sucks because you have to do so much stuff if you want to do something simple.

    I really hate having to select the font size, style, alignment, background color, font color, etc for every single section when I want it all to be the same. I think it would be great if we could set all that stuff up in the first box and then select 'apply to all sections'. After that, it would fill in the rest of the boxes to what you set up and then you go make changes needed as applicable (chapter font size, different color for summary, etc).

    I think it would make things easier.

    By "all sections", do you mean it would literally apply it to everything, or do you mean it would just apply it to the "content" sections (so summary, chapters, content) and not things like the title and chapter title?

    Either, or. I hadn't really thought about it. I was thinking all, but maybe there could be an option for either.

    Ok. Well, I like the idea. It bugs me a lot having to change everything XD

    Definitely agree with this idea. It takes me so much longer to make a simple layout than it used to. I like having the option to make complicated layouts there (it comes in handy at times), but I think something that would make creating simpler layouts easier is definitely a good idea.
