Re: Macro: format text and italicize

Yeah, I wasn't careful enough when I wrote the macro. I wrote Find and Replace '\[([^\[\]]+)\]', '\1', 'Ea' Format:Font Face:Italic which is supposed to find text in brackets, remove the brackets, and then leave the found stuff selected. Then it applies the Italic. And that is what it does , as you ...

I am just trying this. And the arrow keys work. But if I type a letter it always selects Clear Menu:?

Re: Macro: combine paragraphs based on pilcrows

Well the overall task is more or less the same we discussed once in this thread: http://www.nisus.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=5329 The way I do this is like this. First I start with the Find/Replace dialog. I create a find expression which matches the parts of the data and checks for consiste...

Re: Scramble / confidentiality macro; ignore some paragraphs

And to further emphasize my ignorance, I don't understand what the code at the bottom does anyway, i.e., the section re: properties. Is that section needed or only if those languages are being scrambled? The document properties are the stuff you can enter under File > Properties . It contains gener...

Re: Scramble / confidentiality macro; ignore some paragraphs

Anyhow, in case you were interested how I did that, I made two small changes. First I added the following code before the macro starts the Find and Replace. # select all paragraphs not 'protected' with initial '$$' Find All '^\$\$.+$', 'Ea' Invert Selection Then I changed the $options variable, addi...

Re: Scramble / confidentiality macro; ignore some paragraphs

Here's a really simple approach. The macro first selects all paragraphs not protected with '$$' and then scrambles only that part.

Re: note end paragraph

I just tried to write a macro that will work to fix the sample file you sent earlier. Here is the result of the fixing: Lekha_3.rtf Here is the macro that I used to fix this case. In case you have more files like this you might try it. (Remember: Always keep back up copies ;-) ) msebban macro fix.nwm

Re: note end paragraph

Hello again, yes that looks bad. It looks to me like the problem is that starting with note 10, your hand-written notes do not have bold font applied to the note number. The macro that I wrote for you was actually using that bold as a crucial feature to determine where the notes are and which parts ...

Re: note end paragraph

Well I tried writing the macro anyhow. Put it in the macro folder, adjust the Menu commands to the localization (there are two of them) and preferably give the macro a keyboard shortcut (for example command-option-E). Then you'll need just one keystroke to insert a new note. Hope this helps Insert N...

Re: note end paragraph

So, I have to ask you how you are working: In the part where you will be inserting new notes is the main text already written? Both the Hebrew and the French? Or only the Hebrew? Or …? The point is you will have to work like this: If the paragraph where you want to insert a new note does not yet hav...

Re: note end paragraph

Okay so here is another try. I removed the formatting of the macro (that I had added for readability). That formatting somehow caused the problem. As before you will have to replace that one line with the French equivalent (there must be a way around that, but I can think of it right now.) Hopefully...

Hello again. I am attaching a folder below with your sample and a macro that will transform it in the way I have been suggesting. I must warn you, that I have had some (strange) difficulties with the macro, that really have nothing to do with the problem at hand. I can get the macro to work, but if ...
