Could I suggest that the currently selected sheet tab is highlighted. At the moment, it is slightly emphasised by being slightly more in the foreground, but it isn't obvious.

Here it is at the moment:

And here is a mock-up of a highlight on the currently selected tab ...

DEC2BIN works fine in FreeOffice PlanMaker 2024 (rev F1234.0411)
In FreeOffice DEC2BIN(512) gives "1000000000"
In OfficeNX 2026 DEC2BIN(512) gives "#NUM!"

Another example that proves the new strange limit of 10 binary bits:
In FreeOffice DEC2BIN(-42) gives "11111111111111111111111111010110" (2's ...

For some reason, attachments aren't working. But hopefully folk can still make sense of my post.

I frequently use the DEC2BIN functions (and all the related functions for base conversion). It seems that this particular function can't cope with more than 9 digits of binary. For example, DEC2BIN(511) provides "111111111" correctly (9 digits of binary), but DEC2BIN(512) fails, presumably because ...

Hi Văn,

Don't worry, I'm sure you will get some replies soon.

At this time of year, many companies in Europe have staff vacations and not everyone can respond until they return to work.

As a customer myself, I know how important it is to get a response, but it will certainly happen. Softmaker are ...

Hi all,
I've created a PMDX file that has a chart with 2 series plotted on it.
The markers on Series 2 don't seem to stay enabled after I save the file.
I've encountered this problem before on a different file that I had created from scratch. I must admit that I'm not sure if that problem had a ...

Hi all,
Encountered a tiny problem with a line on my chart that disappears after I save and then load the PMDX.
I've tried to reproduce this with a really simple sheet and chart, but everything works fine. So it's something to do with this sheet, which isn't that complex, but does have a couple of ...

That was a very fast reply, thank you!
I'm very (VERY) impressed by Softmaker and it's my absolute preferred set of Office tools and has been since I discovered you in 2008. I'm glad we have this community and connection with the developers that can look into issues. You wouldn't get that from "you ...

I accidentally encountered a problem when adding a polynomial trendline to a simple scatter chart of some test data.
I can adjust the polynomial "order" from linear (1st order) all the way up to 6th order. I can see the preview of the trendline is changing as I increment the order number. But ...

Hi all,

I've encountered this on a couple of different files.

In PlanMaker 2024 the sheet and chart display correctly.

In Planmaker NX Beta, the sheet is OK but the chart is black.

I've attached the PMDX file (originated in PM 2024) and the screenshots.

I've toggled my Windows 11 dark mode ...

Personally I do very much like the dark mode, including the dark document mode too. I know it's not to everyone's tastes, but I guess that's why it's an option. I'm an electronic design engineer and I do a lot of my design work in CAD in what could be called dark-mode, although they are simply ...

Hi all,
I absolutely love using Softmaker compared to MS Office and it's my first "port of call" for every single job now. However I noticed a strange inaccuracy when calculating polynomial coefficients using the LINEST function. See attached file.

In case anyone is not familiar with polynomial ...

Hi all,

Is it possible to increase the maximum line thickness available for graphs (in this case the X/Y Scatter).

I've attached a PM2018 file that shows a graph with 2 curves plotted on it. I'd like one of the curves to be much thicker (the full sine wave one) so that is is not obscured by the ...

Hi Miguel,

Thank you for your reply.

My PlanMaker is the full version (in fact I have purchased it for my work and also for home with separate licences). The version is 972.1023 (64 bit).

My MS Office 2003 is version 11.8169.8172 (SP3) with the 2007 compatability pack.

I've loaded your saved ...
