Re: Updater Not Working Properly

Martin,

Many thanks for the quick response.

I didn't have any other versions installed, but the zip file solution worked fabulously. It is more than likely an Apple thing.

Happy New Year
Lou

Updater Not Working Properly

Hi there,

I keep getting the notice that 3.4 is available. It downloads and decompresses. When I choose install and relaunch, the installer quits and does nothing. Reopening Nisus reveals it is still 3.3.

Thanks
Lou

Date confusion

Hi there,

Am using the following in a macro:

Code: Select all

$hour = Date.now.hour12
It returns 0 when it's the noon hour. Which is odd because the macro reference says The hour on the 12 hour clock, 1-12 inclusive.

Code: Select all

$hour = Date.now.hour
Returns 12 as expected

Thanks
Lou

Many thanks. This is super helpful. Bit of an experiment for workflow from Nisus to Google Docs for a book project.

Hello all,

Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to create macro which will change the font of the Normal paragraph style in a document.

Many thanks,

Re: Introducing Clipboarder

Hi Adryan, Thanks for the feedback. Wonder if there is a permissions issue. My thought is wherever the Macros folder lives, Nisus should have write permissions to it. Try creating the Saved Clipboards folder manually and let me know if that works. I may have to explicitly set permissions. If anyone ...

Introducing Clipboarder (UPDATED)

You know how you're writing along, you come up with a good paragraph but it just doesn't fit where you're working. You ever wish you could place it on a scratch pad to use later? If this is you, you're going to love this set of tools. This set of macros will cut and copy your text selections to the ...

Re: Macro Driven Undo Conundrum Solved

Hi Adrian

Thanks for your input. My needs for this macro were dead simple. A quick copy so I can paste in the blog, and then return to its original state for maybe another edit. Anything more complicated, I would definitely work on a duplicate copy.

Wonderful to hear from you.

Macro Driven Undo Conundrum Solved

I have a macro that converts the document to (simple) markdown for blog posting. Ideally I want to convert the text, put it on the clipboard, then revert the document to its original state. But calling the Undo menu never worked. I thought it was because the Undo menu would rename to Undo Macro &quo...

Re: Fabulous Clipboard Tools

Amazing, thanks for the insight.

Yes, that's correct, if you put your Saved Clipboards folder in the same location as your Macros folder, the macro will see it.

I amended the original post for clarity.

Thanks

Re: Fabulous Clipboard Tools

Mark,

I just noticed you wrote you created a "Stored Clipboards" folder. The name needs to be "Saved Clipboards."

Let me know if that fixes the problem. If not, can you tell me the error you're getting when trying to save the clipboards.

Thanks
Lou
