Re: UI/Window management issue

I am seeing exactly the the same thing. I remember this happening a few years ago, but it went away. Just started seeing it again recently. I'm running TextMaker 2024 (rev S1234.0411) 64bit. Windows 11 Pro 64 Bit Version 25H2.

How do I permanently add a new color?

I know how to define a new color for the current document (File→Properties→Colors) and save it to the palette so I can use it again in the same document, but how do I save it so I can use it in other documents?

Is there a way to temporarily disable autocorrect?

I have an autocorrect rule that changes HSA to Has, But when I am writing about my Health Savings Account I want HSA. Is there a way I can temporary get TextMaker to not change it, just this once?

Re: How do I select a printer in PlanMaker?

Thank you, This seems like a pretty serious problem and I will report it to SoftMaker. I found a work around. I go to File-> Export as pdf Then I open that file in Adobe Acrobat and send it to the printer of my choice.

AHA! When I got the "Printer is off line" popup I was clicking Cancel. I chose ...

How do I select a printer in PlanMaker?

In TextMaker when I print a document it asks me to pick the printer. In PlanMaker when I press Ctrl+P or File→Print it tries to go to what it thinks is the default printer which does not exist.

How can I get PlanMaker to let me pick the printer?

Re: I want January 2 not one half

Thank you. It would be nice if it saw that a cell was formatted for a date and assumed I wanted a date not fraction.

I want January 2 not one half

I have cell in a spreadsheet that is formatted as a date - 23-Dec-2023. I want to enter January 2, so I type “1/2” but PlanMaker (and now I see TextMaker as well) have decided to display ½

How do I shut off the helpful feature? I thought it might be in Insert→Smart text but I deleted all those ...

How do I type BR?

I'm creating a document and want to include the description of an apartment that has two bedrooms. I type "2 BR" and TextMaker immediately changes it to "2 Best regards"

How do I shut that off?

Are there any other shortcuts lingering in the shadows ready to "help" me?

I used the Cell->Number Format function to set the format to Currency, 2 decimal places. Only the Thousands separator box is checked. Currency is USA $.

The data is the cell is now shifted slightly to the left. That is, there ...

Textmaker won't open files

If I go into FileExplorer and drill down to a doc, docx or dot file and double click it, or right click->Open, TextMaker is launched but the file is not opened and I get the hourglass. If I go to File->Open then drill down to the file it opens just fine.

Same thing happens with PlanMaker.

Minimized windows being restored

I have PlanMaker set up to put each spreadsheet in a separate window. If I have one open and the window minimized, and then open another one, the first one is restored. I had it minimized for a reason and if I want it restored I will do so.

Is this a bug or a feature I can change?
