Not for me, nope. I've tried writing books as separate chapters. 8) Like I said, I don't do long text files. It was an idea. I wondered whether the putative TOC palette (with many of the functions of the Document Manager) might be able to handle some of the plot thread work - somehow. Perhaps that'...

Speaking as one who doesn't use NWE for long document work, may I make an observation? For those that require long document work, would there be any mileage in letting NWE work with multiple documents as if they were one? I mean, if I wrote a novel (maybe one day :wink: ) I would be inclined to work...

Dictionaries
I posted what I thought was a bug to Nisus the other day. It concerned am incorrect spelling of a word in the British English dictionary. (If you must know, it was the word "rigorously", which was flagged up as "rigourously" by the dictionary.) Anyway, a helpful bod from Nisus po...

My language is set to English (New Zealand) and British English spelling. I don't like having the US or UK flags, but at least the spelling is correct when the Union jack is displayed :) Okay, I'm a fully paid-up member of the pedantry society, but the Union Jack is only so called when it's attache...

Hi! I usually find this happens when I'm opening files from a third party who seems completely oblivious to the language in which he's typing. I also find the Australian flag appearing, generally on odd words here and there. My solution is to select all the text and remind NWE that I am in fact work...

I know I might be teaching people to suck eggs, but NWE allows you to set or change a shortcut keystroke for any menu command. I have set one to show and hide invisibles. Likewise, the page/draft view already has a menu shortcut to toggle between them. If you don't like it you can change it. Maybe i...

Thanks, Mark. As ever, I fiddled around after firing off my problem to the list and I found the solution you mentioned. What seems odd, though, is that you have to turn it off in two places for the options to stick. I generally want the spelling check on for all new documents, and only occasionally ...
