I started testing the SoftMaker Office NX 2026 beta with build 1415. It also makes sense to install a beta version ONLY for the ...

As you might expect, the two installation scripts for versions NX-1234 and the NX-1417 beta are different. Could this be due to the following new feature in SoftMaker Office 2026?

‘Linux: The installation no longer associates SoftMaker Office with all supported document types without asking ...

I’m not sure if you’re still interested by the beta version of SoftMaker Office NX 2026. If, as I suggested above, you’ve already integrated the GPG key and created the local RPM repository, here’s how to install the last one on Tumbleweed :

It seems you’ve had a problem installing the beta version of SoftMaker Office NX (2026), here’s how I did it on my Tumbleweed :

But for LibreOffice and OnlyOffice, you can add a plugin or extension for this. For French grammar correction, the Grammalect ...

Unfortunately, the command XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE does not work for my KDE desktop to get the REAL file's selector in all SoftMaker Office applications. If it worked, this is what it should look like on KDE Plasma?

@fadi

I'm using KDE Plasma as my desktop environment and to have a better file selector in SoftMaker Office I add the environment variable " XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME " to the application launcher. Alternatively, you can launch TextMaker by typing the following command in a terminal:

The FiraGO font seems to work well with all SoftMaker Office applications. I've also tested it with OnlyOffice , WPS Office and LibreOffice (with LO all font's variations aren't listed in the menu).

Here's the link where I downloaded the FiraGO font for my PC (KDE Plasma desktop on ...

Is there any way to set the default Zoom Level? (And, while I'm asking, is there any way to set the default view style (such as Standard View)?)

Hello,

With TextMaker I also wanted a certain zoom level to be selected by default for each new document created. How did I manage to do this?
