Re: a very useful function in the tables

If there are still problems, feel free to report it. Thank you Philip for looking into this. Unfortunately the numbers (i.e. the cross-references) in the table are not yet in correct order. When a third footnote is inserted, the natural progression begins to spin out of control. The numbers "2...

Re: a very useful function in the tables

I don't know if this has been already addressed. The macro "Table Footnote" generates an error if more than 1 footnote is inserted into a cell. The error message reads: "There was an error on line 68 in the macro "Table Footnote". The TextSelection object does not have a &qu...

Re: a very useful function in the tables

Hi jdevriendt, I understand your frustration over not being able to enter footnotes in tables. Meanwhile, you could enter numbers in superscript. Below the table, enter note references with text color white (so the true note references will be invisible.) If you use "Note references color"...

Re: Export to RTF issues

I exported to RTF […] Why exporting? Are you saying that you used the menu command "Export As…" from the File menu, and then chose the file format "Rich Text Format (for older applications"? Normally one would *save* (not export) the document in the file format "Rich Text F...

Re: APA writing system for Nisus Writer Pro

Hi Windsor, I had never heard of PERRLA before, so I'm glad you asked. Is there a macro or a PERRLA version for Nisus Writer Pro? I'm not aware of a macro that does what PERRLA does, and according to PERRLA's web page, they only offer PERRLA for MS Word. I found PERRLA that is an add-in for Word. It...

Re: NWP on iPad?

With the latest update, Pages on both macOS and iOS support import and export of RTF files […] In the few documents I have tested I had no issues so far. Here is what I noticed regarding RTF files. It seems Pages 6.1 has problems with footnotes. 1) Footnotes in a document saved as RTF in Pages, wil...

Re: Text Skips a Page and Leaves it Blank

Hello Wizardiaoan, I was just wondering what the problem could have been? Are you sure you haven't accidentally inserted Page/Section Breaks into your document? Enable "Show Invisibles" and search with the wild card "Any Break." Any unruly shapes floating around? If you have past...

Re: A font problem happen from bookends to nisus writer pro

Since this also happens with Safari > NWP, then Nisus becomes suspect no. 1, but I would do a few more tests before taking measures with far-reaching effect. 1. What Text Encoding are you using in Safari (View menu > Text Encoding > ?) One would usually choose Unicode (UTF-8) for a Roman text, or We...

Re: A font problem happen from bookends to nisus writer pro

Hello tomoyuki-kosaka, To make sure I understand you right, you are selecting a reference in the *bottom* Display Pane in Bookends' Library Window, which on p. 103 in Bookends' User Manual is called "Formatted view". Then you copy the reference (with Command-c) and paste it (with Command-v...

Hello Oliver, I am considering Nisus, but from using it briefly, I have some concerns I had concerns too in the beginning. It takes more than 2 weeks trial time to discover the full potential of Nisus Writer Pro (NWP). 1. Don't see a way to view the same document side by side. Needed for long docume...

Hello Adrian and others, Yosemite is as far along the path as I’ve gone at this stage, not wishing to push my luck with what I perceive to be very problematic subsequent versions of the operating system.
