Re: Find paragraph with matching first line and delete paragraph

You could use Nisus Writer Pro macros to automate this task, but it's probably simpler and easier to use PowerFind. You would want a PowerFind search expression that looks like this: powerfind.png The key is using the "Start of Paragraph" PowerFind bubble to ensure you only match this spec...

Re: Sonoma 14.0 Problem

The beta worked I thought, but now, it's crashing again. hoping for an update soon! Hi Seth– I just saw your latest crash report and it was not from the beta. The report shows you were using regular version 3.3 at the time. Please switch back to the beta version to avoid the crashes. Sorry for the ...

Re: Moving toolbar and palettes to a new mac

Hi Eric, this should be possible without too much trouble. Basically you tell Nisus Writer on your new Mac to use the same Nisus settings folder that you already have saved on iCloud. Here's our FAQ with all the details:

How do I sync or restore my Nisus Writer preferences?

Re: Documents folder

I'd like to echo Mark's advice. Your Nisus Writer documents folder (perhaps you mean the "Document Manager" folder?) should be distinct from any other standard folder, like the Documents folder in your home folder or iCloud. I follow Mark's suggestion of making my Nisus documents folder a ...

Re: Sonoma 14.0 Problem

Hi Arthur! We’re very sorry for the trouble. There are indeed compatibility issues with Nisus Writer and macOS Sonoma. The most prominent is related to system-wide auto-completion, which triggers crashes in Nisus Writer. You can disable this Sonoma feature in your system preferences to prevent the i...

Re: NW Pro 3.3 crashing in macOS 14.0

Thanks! It was a little surprising. I don't remember a NW crash since the transition from 6.5/Okito/NW Pro. Not that I want to contradict such favorable memories, but that's perhaps the gentle lens of nostalgia! :drunk: There have been several periods of Apple triggered instability. So far Sonoma i...

Re: Sonoma compatibility

I recently upgraded to Sonoma and Nisus is working all right apart from a couple of glitches: 1. The "Print..." function doesn't work. Nothing happens when selecting it. Have to quit Nisus and restart then printing works once. 2. After printing a document, the Page Zoom defaults to 100% f...

Re: Typography Has Stopped Working MacOS Sonoma

Thank you for the bug report. This does indeed appear to be a new incompatibility with macOS Sonoma. I tested briefly and unfortunately I was unable to find a workaround. We'll need to investigate this problem further.

Re: Sonoma compatibility

Update: the issue was caused by Google Drive. Saving the files to a location that is not synced with Google Drive resolved it. A problem reminiscent of this one, but with macos 13.6 M2 chip. Rang a bell when I saw the problem was linked with google drive sync. when I work with the local SSD disk, e...

Re: Install beta for Sonoma crashes on App Store NWP?

Yes, but I'm continually reading that each new version of the OS fixes a host of security problems, often qualified with a phrase such as " which are currently being exploited ". From the software viewpoint, as expressed by Adryan, we are encouraged to wait. But other voices are telling u...

Re: Install beta for Sonoma crashes on App Store NWP?

The User Guide says don't "run" two versions at the same time. But if I keep my existing, highly customized version of NWP on my Mac, can I download and use the beta until a final fix and then revert to the previous version? Or will that mess up existing file access or file versions or so...

Re: Orange Borders Around Headings (Suddenly)

That is actually an on-screen display highlighting feature in Nisus Writer. It's optional: you can customize the color or hide it entirely. Here's how: 1. Open your Nisus Writer preferences. 2. Switch to the Appearance pane. 3. Look for the "Colors" area (near the bottom) and select the ca...
