Customize & Automate Solutions

You can customize almost everything about Nisus Writer Pro to fit your working methods and environment. These include subjects already described in the manual such as determining how your windows appear.

The searching tools of Nisus Writer Pro allow you to customize the way you find and replace text. The section beginning on page 441 discusses this capability in detail.

You can combine any Nisus Writer Pro commands (and include Find and Replace activities as well) to create new commands that automate repetitive tasks, called macros. The manual discusses these macros beginning on page 629.

This portion of the documentation details three aspects of how to customize your version of Nisus Writer Pro, how to set preferences, how to customize your Toolbar and Palette Dock (the Palettes), and how to create macros.

The preferences you choose affect all Nisus Writer Pro documents. Choose preferences that fit your personal working style. You can set a variety of preferences for Nisus Writer Pro from the commands in the Preferences dialog.
