I've been trying Nisus Writer Express 2, and it overall looks fantastic. I'm nearly ready to switch from Word, but it appears to lack some paragraph formatting features that for me are crucial, namely, "Keep with Next" and "Widow/Orphan Control." Are these features in NWE, and I'm just missing them? If not, any chance they could be added soon? As much as I like NWE2, the absence of these features is a deal-breaker for me (unfortunately).

Hi Ed:

These features are not available in 2.0. However, they are on our list and we did a lot of behind-the-scenes work in 2.0 it prepare for these features. If you can't use NWE now, be sure to keep an eye on this, because these features will definitely come at some point in the future!

Thanks for the info, Charles. I look forward to when NWE has those features. Then I can say goodbye to Word once and for all!

As it's been a while since the previous post, is there any news on these features?

This is one of the few gaps in Nisus that make me use Pages for many documents (the others being the lack of TOCs and the inability to flow text around graphics).

Thanks

Hi Amar,

I've only been using NWE for a few days. But from what I see in the menus and paragraph formatting options, it's not there yet.
