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.

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?

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. I'm runnin...

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?
