Re: Uppercase to Lowercase letter and vice versa

Select the text, press Shift+F3 repeatedly until it shows the casing you like.

There will be a new version of SoftMaker Office Professional this year that you can purchase as an upgrade.

Re: NX Updates

We generally don't preannounce, and I went farther than I usually go. There will be exciting improvements, but it is really too early. Wait for the public beta announcement, then we'll spill the beans.

Re: NX Updates

That will come later this spring/early summer (XLOOKUP etc.). No, next week's announcement is about a proofing improvement in TextMaker.

Re: Can you use the Basic Sans and Basic Roman fonts free outside of the app, because they are visually same as them?

If you want to use the font in other apps on your computers, phones or tablets, feel free to do so.

If your question is about distributing the fonts to others, we don't allow that.

Re: can't activate

Some stupid spammer overloaded one of our servers today. This is solved and will likely not happen the same way in the future.

Re: can't format sections separetly

Page margins are a chapter property, not a section property.

Re: Keyboard defaulting to Japanese

If you have multiple keyboard layouts installed, pressing Ctrl+Shift toggles between them, and it's awfully easy to do this by accident.

I always turn off Ctrl+Shift switching in Windows.

Re: Track changes now comments deletions

The thing is that track changes are in flux at Microsoft. Originally it was a document option. Now, they are still storing the setting in documents, but ignore it and prefer what the user chose in the UI. We are on a similar path with upcoming versions of SoftMaker Office.

Re: Repo URI has gone since sunday

https://shop.softmaker.com/repo/rpm and https://shop.softmaker.com/repo/apt are not listable in a web browser and haven't been for a long time.

Your package manager will have no problem accessing it.

The problem you saw was a short server failure on Sunday morning which was fixed on Sunday morning.
