Thanks, Hamid, for the Cmd-Control-d tip. Strangely, when I use Cmd-Control-d on a word in NWP2 I get the correct result. When I then try to "Look Up" that same word, I get the same problem. Also, just tried clearing the Font cache then restarting; no change. Of course, now with the keyboa...

Hello All, Happily using NWP2 and discovered the other day that if I right-click a highlighted word I can "Look Up" the dictionary meaning of that word in a way similar to using Spotlight. Perhaps this feature had been there forever and I'm a little slow, who knows. In any case, here is wh...

Hello All, This problem is likely has something to do with how OS X Lion works, but I'll mention it anyway: if you have a couple of open NWP2 files, the Window > Next Window command will switch to the next window, except if there is a window that has been made full screen. Any full screen windows ar...

Hi Martin, thanks for the alternative solution, appreciate it. Josh

Hello Elbrecht,

Thanks very much, that does indeed do the trick!

Hello All, I noticed that when I add some of the special character spaces such as thin space, hair space, non-breaking zero width space (but NOT the non-breaking space), the height of the line with that special character space visually increases by what look a point or two (although the actual line ...

Hello, I have a pdf floating image in my text that I have sized so that it extends beyond the margins. I also have a page border on the left margin. I would like the image to sit on top of the page border (so that the page border cannot be seen where it intersects the image) rather than the border b...

Hello, A while back I had exactly the same problem when I was converting files from Wordperfect into NWP. With Martin's help, I came up with this macro that would automatically add a "." after a note number (and a tab too). If you don't want the tab added, just remove the \t from the line ...

Thanks Martin! Josh

Hi All, This post is more in the way of mentioning a small bug with NWP than asking for a solution (although if there is one, I'm happy to receive it!). I've occasionally noticed a problem when a document has endnotes which are placed at the end of the document. If the end of document comes near the...

Hello Pastorabbot, You can add a keyboard shortcut for any menu item, including one to toggle the toolbar on and off. The following should work: on the menu bar at top, go to Nisus Writer Pro > Preferences . . . select Menu Keys in the Preferences Panel select View > Toolbar > Show Toolbar from the ...

Hi Martin, Thanks for the quick and thorough reply, as usual! That certainly makes sense, although I disagree with the behaviour in this case. Maybe it comes down to a difference in philosophy. My view is that if I have over-ridden the default tabs, it is because I want the tabs in one particular pl...

Hi All, Pretty sure there is a bug—or a very strange feature!—when using the Increase/Decrease Hanging Indent command (Format > Paragraph Indents). Here is what I've discovered so far: if you have a ruler with the tabs set greater than 1/4", and have a paragraph that has a tab at the beginning ...

Hello WindyCity, Unfortunately I don't have any answer, but I can say that lately (last 1 or 2 weeks), I've been having NWP 2.0.1 "quit unexpectedly" after opening from sleep on my macbook pro (os x Lion). I open the lid of my computer and NWP is simply no longer running even though it was...

Hi Martin, The paragraph border suggestion works great. I'll play around with the copying the line into the header to see if I can get it to work (just for the option of shadows and whatnot that the graphic line provides)—of course it would be nice if the anchor would automatically go into the heade...
