Re: List Style w/ line break as part of "After Text"?
To start with the last example; since your paragraph number is centered, and the following text left aligned you are just going to have to use two paragraphs. Feel free to call this "clumsy", if you like. It seems pretty normal to me. Make sure to attach the relevant following style to the...

Re: Document assembly
This isn't really an issue for mail merge. Generally you would have a form letter and in the context of the sentence you had written you would know if you wanted the genitive (a choice between his/her or his/hers) or you wanted the accusative/dative (a choice between him/her). So no grammar checking...

Re: Document assembly
I'm pretty sure you could handle the cases you mention ("his/her", optional paragraph) using mail merge. But that doesn’t mean I would recommend it. You could also do any of the following: Create your own "mail merge". Create the default document with the replaceable fields marke...

Feature request: copy-paste (drag & drop) of short formatted text
I wonder if this might be possible. When copying and pasting attributed text, NWP does a good job of copying the formatting. If the text copied includes a whole paragraph it also copies the paragraph formatting, which is fine. But one place that I always have trouble is when the piece is just a shor...

Re: FR: Have font search string look for matches in entire font name, not merely from the beginning
I kept looking at this little search box and wondering "Where is this feature in NWP?". But now I realize you created this as a mock-up? The current implementation requires one to type directly in the font list. And you have to type 'swiftly' or it will keep jumping to the next letter. (&q...

Every minute spent using MicroSoft Word feels like 10 minutes of my life wasted. Why can't the world choose a better standard like Nisus Writer ?
My apologies for posting this here. I just wanted to relieve my frustration

Re: Setting up Nisus Writer in a second account
I keep all of those things on my iCloud Drive. That way they transfer across my devices. The same should work for different accounts.
Or you could keep them in the shared folder.

Re: Date confusion
Methinks the "inclusive" is misleading. ".hour12" returns a value in the range 0-11, which frankly is the desired behavior.
".hour" will return a value in the 0-23 range, so 12PM will return 12 while 12AM will return 0.
".hour" will return a value in the 0-23 range, so 12PM will return 12 while 12AM will return 0.

Re: Manipulating cells in a matrix
So putting it all together into a single macro: # Get the table $doc = Document.active $table = $doc.text.tables[0] # The list of cells to be selected $cellList = Array.new "00", "21", "24" # Make the selection $selectionArray = Array.new foreach $str in $cellList $nums...

Re: Manipulating cells in a matrix
Now addressing what I assume is your real question: Let‘s say the result is $out = ("00", "21", "24") My question is: How can I do the inverse: How can I select the 3 cells, knowing there position in the matrix? You can create table selections as follows: $sel = TableSe...

Re: Manipulating cells in a matrix
This problem is very technical, and due to the way the Nisus coders have implemented evaluation of expressions. In the first iteration you were not allowed to combine different operators on a line. Currently the implementation is more powerful, but in case of doubt or problems you should use parenth...

Re: Select All in Highlight
As to the problem: The macro works fine with contiguous text. But I need it also with a table which has some of its elements marked with that highlight. While the menu at the bottom of the page selects the elements as expected, the macro does not. Can you see why? Yes, of course. My macro crudely u...
