If Zotero's scanning is handled properly this should provide a reliable way to conveniently use Nisus Writer and Zotero together. Zotero works well in MS Word, LibreOffice and GoogleDocs; and documents saved in RTF and ODF formats are to be scanned in order to create citations and a bibliography, m...

Another thing I still like in Papyrus is that the space around your documents works not only as a space for mummified text and comments but as a clipboard. So you can simply drag snippets out of your text to the side, where they stay available for later use. […] simply dragging text to the side and...

Thanks Martin for the additional macro examples. I suppose the original poster has never tried to write a Nisus macro, so I wanted to demonstrate to him how easy it is to use menu commands, and that there is actually no excuse for beginners not to do it. My experience is: once you taste Nisus-macro-...

Hello ArchDuke, It seems you are using Papyrus. :–) Regarding mummifying text: I use this quite extensively for shortening historical sources for my students. I can understand why this can be useful for this particular purpose. But as a student, I would also like to see where you shortened the text....

Hello ArchDuke, yes, I know one can toggle both things off and I use this quite frequently. I just like the ability to get a "print preview" with a single shortcut. Nisus already has such a command. :–). It's just waiting for you to … create it! What does that mean, you may wonder… For a f...

Have you tried Tools > Automatic Contents > Update All Stale Contents?

Thanks for the clarification.

I hope the macro helps! Thank you for this nice macro, Martin. Works like a charm, like anupam already said. :–) The macro leaves the small dropdown menu open and we have to use the down arrow key to select the correct word. Since the correct word often happens to be the first word in the dropdown ...

Hello anupam, I see you have just joined the forum. Welcome to the friendly Nisus community! Is it possible to add a new command (and shortcut) to do this, so that the toil of having to move back to the point of correction is eliminated? Nisus has already a feature which should prevent you from miss...

I regularly select cells for deletion by dragging the pointer to designate the range, then using Tables-Select-Cells-Delete-Cells. Being a pedant when it comes to word processing, I wonder how you can be using Tables-Select-Cells-Delete-Cells , because these menu commands do not exist in NWP v.3.2....

Hello Adrian and Paieye, it would be better if that Macro could somehow be altered to make the highlighting (or whatever) applicable on the fly, so that the effect became progressively visible as the selection proceeded. Is this possible? Don't know if that’s possible, but after reading Paieye's fir...

Is it possible, though, to adjust the settings so that drag-to-select text drags the highlighting with it ? Perhaps this macro can help. It waits until you make your selection and then highlights it. If you do this frequently you should assign a keyboard shortcut to the macro or create a custom Too...

Same here. Reopening the document shows no additional characters.
Must have something to do with the new operating system(s).


macOS High Sierra 10.13.6
MacBook Pro (mid-2010)
Nisus Writer Pro 3.2.1

All of this talk about numbered bibliographic entries makes me nostalgic for LaTeX. LaTeX bibliographies allow you to use symbolic link names and resolves them to numbers when it typesets the article or book. … and will a click on the reference symbol in the PDF then take you directly to the corres...

Thank you Philip for the step-by-step instruction of how to join the two parts. If I come across any errors I'll let you know. I'll have to study this carefully. You are using commands that I'm not yet familiar with (substring, deleteInRange, insertAtIndex), and I have forgotten why you always do th...
