G'day, Philip et al I've had a bit of a closer look at this. It is immaterial whether the line ends with a period or not. The discrepancy just happened to show in a line I had that ended with a period. The reason we can still end up with a bit of white space at the end of a line is that progressive ...

G'day, Philip et al That was quick! Thanks, Philip. Yes, the second version is better and looks like it does what I want. However, if the line ends on a period, the period may not end up at the Right Line Indent. Your "different kludge" wouldn't work here because, if I understand it correc...

G'day, all I sometimes want to interrupt the flow of text in a document by inserting a new Section with different properties. But I want the text succeeding the Section to continue the flow of the text preceding the Section. Problems arise when the new Section splits an indented paragraph into two p...

G'day, all I'm afraid I don't have time to go into this in detail just now, but it makes a difference if you have a Style's "Based on" setting set to "None" rather than something else (like "Normal" perhaps). Try this with a Character Style and apply it to a whole word ...

G'day, Phil et al Without seeing a step-by-step account of what you are doing, it's hard to know why things aren't working for you. Here is an absolutely basic and straightforward procedure for you to try. It's not quite the way I would normally do things myself, but I've done it this way for pedago...

G'day, all And now, I've just seen that a keyboard shortcut associated with a Service (viz, Look Up in Dictionary) suddenly stopped working. Normal operation resumed after an NWP restart. The shortcut remained visible in the Services menu the whole time. However, the fault may lie deeper in the oper...

G'day, WF, Philip et al I've looked at this again. NWP shows keyboard shortcut in Macros menu. I quit NWP and restarted. No documents open. Keyboard shortcut now does not show in Macros menu. Create a new blank document. Keyboard shortcut still does not show in Macros menu. Enter a single character ...

G'day, WF et al

It works for me in NWP 3.3.

Cheers,
Adrian

G'day, tedg et al You can do this using Text Boxes. Tools > Insert Shape > Text Box Text outside the box can be positioned using the Shape Wrap Palette. Or you might create a new Section that includes the Text Box and adjust the page margins (Margins Palette) especially to suit that Section. Note th...

G’day, NisusUser et al Thanks for clarifying that. Here’s a Macro that I hope does the trick for you. Insert Book Designation.nwm It assumes that the selection includes the (soft or hard) return immediately preceding the first verse reference you wish to amplify. It also assumes you want a space bet...

G'day, NisusUser et al There is a big problem here, in that the second verse reference in your example (viz, "10:15") is not preceded by either a paragraph return or a soft return, and yet it seems from the transformed text you cite that you still wanted it preceded by your chosen text str...

G'day, Philip et al Mark is quite right when he says we really need to see the Macro that Julie used. Pending such enlightenment, and perhaps more out of pursuit of the intellectual exercise than anything, I still think it likely that she failed to insert the footnote reference immediately after the...

G'day, Mark et al Just so. I usually have Show Invisibles activated all the time, and it is quite irritating to see all the extraneous junk people have in their text. Leading and trailing paragraph spaces are very common. One has to be a little bit careful about replacing each string of spaces with ...

G'day, Julie et al Double spacing after concluding sentence punctuation was common practice in the days of typewriters because they used monospaced fonts. Although there are some computer fonts that are monospaced (eg, Courier), most are proportional and with them it's best to use single spacing and...

G'day, Ted et al Regular visitors will know that I have only rudimentary knowledge of the Nisus Macro Language, but I felt sure the answer would lie in at least one of the supplied Macros. And indeed there is a snippet of code for looping through all open documents in the Macro titled "Save All...
