Turning Chapters On/Off in Word Count

It would be nice to be able to turn chapters (off) in the word count while we draft. I'm considering adding a small chapter in between two larger chapters, but I haven't decided yet. To be able to mark a chapter, and turn it off in the word count while I work, think, and make that decision, would make my understanding of the word count pacing I have clearer so I can make the best decision about this part later.

I think this is great because all that I've written in my notes is getting counted as my whole manuscript's word count, which is kind of annoying. After all, the notes aren't really part of my manuscript.

Hunter Notes don't count toward word count.

In the new app version they will count towards words written totals, because those are global, but word counts are only the words in your manuscript and nothing from your notes is counted toward that.
