I'm all for lightening the burden on this Martin guy :P We'll definitely see about getting the forum to accept attachments. The repository idea is nice as well, but I'm not sure allowing anyone to upload whatever they feel like without some kind of management on our part is for the best. I see that...

Couple of comments here: 1) Geoff is right to point out the usefulness of shift-return. It means for instance, that you can have a style for quotations, with space-before and space-after allocated, but you want to use it for poetry and don't want the extra space between lines ... just use shift-retu...

Now save the empty document with these two Paragraph Styles as your default new file -- Nisus New File.dot (.dot is the suffix you get when you choose to save in Document Template format) to User/Library/Application Support/Nisus Writer/. It will ask you whether you want to overwrite the existing f...

Martin How its accomplished in Nisus Writer I don't know. What I would like to do is finish my last answer choice, e.g. d., press the return key twice and start the next question. Between the last choice of the previous question and the following question there should be a blank line or a suitable ...

I have been writing my Ph.D. dissertation with the page number at the center of the page bottom. However, I have recently earned that the page number should be in the rightmost position of the page top. May I ask you how to first delete the page number at the center of the page bottom and then add ...

Does any one know if NWP 1.1 has a feature (that I am not able to see it yet) somewhere, to import a document. When I want to open a document I simply push command-o to open it. But what if i don't want to have several open documents, and then select all and copy of each open document and then past...

I don't know whether I am missing something here, but I do this all the time: I take huge documents from home to the office (in case there is a lull and I can work with them), and if I'm lucky and have had free time to work on them I take them back home. At home, I don't have Word on my computer, o...

Yes, I too use it for my own templates, the quickest way to get at them until Nisus develops an "Open from template" system. And if Nisus crashes, that folder is where the backups are saved, so don't get rid of it.

My machine is a G5 iMac, first generation 1.8GHz with 1G of RAM running OX10.5.2. Using NWP 1.03. Lorenz Then I would think you're up against the slow-downs that result from running 10.5.2 on a PPC computer that doesn't support the necessary graphic acceleration in the graphics card, so it's handin...

The message is clear -- if you are still on a G4 or G5, don't go to Leopard. Stay with Tiger. Recently, I upgraded to OS 10.5.2. And now, regretfully, I've decided to take greenmorpher's advice and stay (revert) to 10.4.11 until Leopard's serious performance degradation problems have been resolved....

This has the same solution as your other problem: set your OSX international system preferences so that "Australian English" is on top. This is different from the generic "English" setting most Macs ship with. As warned in the system control panel you will need to restart Nisus ...

Have you got the highlighting found occurrences turned off? On my system, everything found and replaced is highlighted in yellow until I move the caret ... so if there's no yellow, nothing was found! Mind you, I suppose if you've got a document a hundred pages long and only one occurrence is found, ...

Can you not use PDF ... that scales ...? Not really. After trying a couple of applications such as Grab and SnapZ Pro, using the latter to make a TIFF file with Graphic Converter to scale between 50% and 90% was as automatic as I needed. This also gave the best result after printing the NWP file vi...

You can export from Bento to CSV and open that in Tables. From Tables, you can select, copy and paste into Nisus, which gives you tab-delimited rows and you can use "Convert to Table" to turn it into a Nisus Table. You can do the same thing using Numbers, what you can't do with Numbers is ...
