Thanks.

Re: Switch to secondary font

I am baffled about why I cannot set that secondary font preference like Cliff can.

But I am quite happy to use the character style technique.

Thanks all.

Switch to secondary font

This is not working for me. My requirement is that I use a font that does not have Hiragana, and from time to time I need them. I have a Hiragana font installed. My expectation is that I should be able to set the Hiragana font as the 'secondary font' in settings. The behaviour I am seeing is that in...

Re: Absolutely frustrating behaviour of pictures and text boxes

Plus one.

I live in Nisus, and create complex documents with many images. There are too many advantages for me to consider changing, but squirrelly image movement drives me nuts.

I'd happily pay for a super pro version that has better layout management.

Internal 'sidebar'

I'm using sidebar in the page layout sense. This is common in magazines where there is a block of text that dives into some topic in the main text flow. For example, a magazine article in gravity may mention black holes. A 'sidebar' would be a block of relatively small text/images — a sort of page w...

No, I don't know. MS doesn't store messages. It works with Apple Mail.

Mailsuite Integration?

I have Mailsuite, which tags emails using what I suppose is a private system. Any chance that IC will support these? They are rather like finder tags on files.

Re: Automatic Figure Titles

Ah, never mind. I see in the dialog box how to manage this. It is hard to see, but I think I applied a specific paragraph style to the list style.

Re: Automatic Figure Titles

But as you ultimately seem to want automatically updating Figure numbers, you should choose list items. Create a new numbered list "Figures". Make sure to set it to "continue numbering throughout document" Label your Figures using a paragraph with this list style Insert your Cro...

Loop through open documents

I have a nice macro that sets various view parameters of an open document. How do I apply that to all open documents?

Things like no pallets, window size and position, typewriter scrolling. Nothing in the doc content.

Automatic Figure Titles

I am writing in many locations in a long document, adding figures before and after existing text and figures. I assume there is a way to have figures renumber dynamically. But before I dive in to that, is there a way to have references in the text to figures also update. That's the real bugaboo. So ...

Just a Thanks

I've ended up using this app several times a day now. I have no idea what I paid, but it was trivial compared to the value it delivers.

I'd like to encourage Nisus to make more products.

Re: Request: Everything a style!

have a figure style that automatically sets the figure counter and attaches to the image. This is already possible. You can define an "Image Caption" paragraph style that enforces a particular list style with a custom text prefix like "Figure". Thanks for the response. I should ...
