No, you'll need to write the find expression exactly as Martin said with '.+' etc., and then you need to apply the actual font to the relevant bits of the expression. May I however suggest a different approach to this problem? Try going to the macro repository and download Kino's "Select by font" ma...

On second thought I realize something. You might have a file that has no endnote style. In that case you need to add the endnote style. (The easiest way to do that that I can see, is to copy it out of some other document.)

But you do also see the other form "Endnote", don't you?
Just select that, and then the footnote becomes an endnote.

Here is my version of such a macro that *does* work for tables with merged cells. # Macro Swap Rows and Columns with Merged Cells # version 1.0 # written 2009.3.16 by p. spaelti # # This macro has been inspired by and benefitted from code written by Kino. # # # The following macro transforms a table...

Just note one thing though. The macro creates a copy of the document. As you edit the original the two windows will diverge. So this is quite different from a split screen.

The Color.black command is a command which returns a constant. The result is a rgb value (0,0,0). You can use this in commands like the "Set Text Color" command. That command assigns the color value to the current selection. In your case, I am guessing, the $value is not the current selection, but m...

I can definitey confirm the bug. I have at times edited files where the drag-and-drop operation consistently results in a "freeze". The cursor disappears and trying to type results in a beep. One has to use the mouse and click at a location to re-obtain a cursor and continue work. Having said that I...

…and finally if you use the combining diacritic (U+0300) instead you can actually write the whole thing like this:
(for what it's worth…)

Yes, this is flaky and confusing. White space characters (or something looking such) between note texts are treated as \n when "One Note per Line" is checked in Note Styles and as \t when it is not checked. And those at the end of each page are treated as \f . Aha. Explained that way it all makes s...

Kino, thanks for your reply. I must say that I hardly ever use footnotes, so I really don't think about them. For the same reason I have not usually read your and Nobumi's comments on these matters very carefully However after reading about them, and then trying some tests of my own, I have to say t...

@Groucho: But js wanted to start from a selection that he already had. So your method doesn't really apply here. It did however give me an idea for a much simpler approach than Kino's. How about the following: Find and Replace '.+', '_Line_To_Be_Deleted_', 'Esa' Find and Replace '^.*_Line_To_Be_Dele...

As for the forum's list tag, it does work, but the syntax is a little awkward. For a bulleted list you should use:

And a numbered list:

So the "1" (or some other number) was the trick. Thanks, I got it to work now.

As a MobileMe user I recently began using the sync "Preferences" setting. Little did I know that this would not only synch my Mac's system preferences, but also the preferences for applications. The result is that if I make changes to the "Nisus New File" on one machine the same changes will later s...

Here's is where I think the problem lies. When I open the macro and check the color of the find string, for "normal" colors the format menu will show the correct color checked. So if the find expression has the text color "Red" then "Red" will be checked. But with "Gray" even if apply and save "Gray...

I can confirm Lou's problem, and whatever the value of Martin's remedy, it isn't applicable here. Here are the steps for reproducing the problem. Let's first try a case that works: 1. Open the find box 2. Enter '.+' as the find expression 3. Apply a text color (let's use "Red") 4. Test the find --->...
