Yes, I figured that out. Thanks for the help. It is a highly useful feature, since compiling the whole book takes several minutes (or so it feels).

Actually, maybe I did think of clicking on File, where I didn't find it. But I did find it in an even more logical place: Edit.<br>
Thanks again.<br>

Have a source file with preamble you want open for editing. Click File->Experiment (or something like that---I'm not at my computer) and a new window opens. Type you material into that window. Press the Typset button in the toolbar of that window. TeXShop 3.51
will then use the preamble of that source file and typeset the document. <br>

Good Luck,<br>

<blockquote type="cite">I recall a mention sometime ago of an "experiment" option in the TeX editor that allows one to test a part of a larger document without having to create a new file, etc. I have not been making intense use of TeXShop over the past few
months but now would find this feature useful. Can anyone tell me how to access it?<br>
I'm running Version 3.51 on OS 10.8.5.<br>
