Stories

You can use the Stories tab in the Assignment Editor panel to view and manage the stories linked to an assignment. When you create a story from within an assignment, Inception uses the assignment Slug to set the Slug for the new story. Inception links stories created from within an assignment and the assignment. You can also drag existing stories into an assignment to link the selected story with the assignment.
