Re: Save dialog has changed?

Well, it gets weirder. After Martin suggested a restart, I cursed myself for wasting everyone's time by not restarting before posting. The restart solved the problem and I went to bed. This morning, for kicks, I opened a new file, typed a few paragraphs, waited three minutes... and the problem's bac...

Save dialog has changed?

I'm using 2.16 Here's how save used to work: After a few paragraphs, I'd hit SAVE It would guess the title of the file from the first line I typed. I usually left it that way. Hit save, done. Here's how it works now: After a few paragraphs, I hit SAVE But it has ALREADY saved the file, called UNTITL...

Re: Nisus stopped working, new version disappears

When in doubt, restart

Our regularly scheduled productivity can resume now.

Thank you Martin, for being amazing, for years and years and years.

Thank you

Re: Nisus stopped working, new version disappears

Thanks guys

I downloaded the zip, skipped the installer, dragged it in

it now works

BUT

the icon in the dock remains the same, a sad pale nisus logo with a slash through it

I can live with it, but it depresses me.

Nisus stopped working, new version disappears

Hi Martin (and everyone else) Long long time user. Yesterday, running under 10.9, I sat down to do some work and the Nisus icon in the dock had a slash through it, and when clicked wouldn't open. I upgraded my OS this morning to 10.11. All other apps work. Used CleanMyMac to uninstall it. Went and d...

Re: Embedding lists into paragraph styles

Wow! Boy oh boy.

I knew a bunch of that about styles, but your list tip did the trick and the navigator pane (new to me) is going to change my life.

I've been a Nisus user for a decade or so, but you just doubled my productivity. Thank you.

Embedding lists into paragraph styles

Forgive me if this is obvious or previously covered, but I couldn't find it. My doc is a series of short essays, each with a heading (style called HEAD1, shown here in caps) My goal is to have Nisus automatically number the HEAD1 styles, so that each will increment. Simple example: THIS IS THE HEADI...

Hyperlinks need to be removed (driving me crazy)

I have a 200 page document with hyperlinks here and there. They're blue and they're underlined. I'm exporting it eventually to the Kindle, and Amazon won't allow blue text. I've tried every trick I can think of to remove the Internet style or to change the color of it, and nothing works other than m...

Macro to extract web addresses

Assume for a moment that I'm stupid (safe guess)

how hard is it to create a macro that goes through a file and extracts all urls?

if it exists, could you point it out to me?

thanks!
