Re: Automatic hyphenation are not turned off

The global "automatic hyphenation" option applies in fact only to the present document. If hyphenation is on in every new document, it's probably an issue of your Normal.tmvx document template. Open it (it should be stored in On my iPad > TextMaker > SoftMaker > TextMaker 2021 templates > ...

Re: Default margin view

If you don’t open an existing document but simply start TextMaker, it opens with a new document "Untitled 1" which is based on the document template Normal.tmvx. So, just open Normal.tmvx (choose "Templates" as "File type" in the "Open" dialog), adjust the zoo...

Re: Inverted inverted commas (inverted "speech marks")

Well, users who care for such typographic niceties as correct quotation marks or the difference between three dots and an ellipsis can surely be moved to define a keyboard shortcut for an ellipsis.

Re: Layout in classic view

Go to Tools > Customize and type "page" into the "Quick search" field. You may either choose "Page margins" or "Page setup" and draw the icon into the icon bar, whichever suits you better. I prefer "Page setup" as it has all the options in one dialog...

Re: Font embedding?

Why not save the cover as an image file, import that into your TextMaker manuscript and create a PDF for the whole thing from there?

Re: Moving word(s) causes issues

The SoftMaker support team monitors this forum, so no special action is needed. I am confident the developers will fix the bug in due course.

Re: Moving word(s) causes issues

Yes, I can reproduce this issue. When I select a word by double-clicking it, then move it to a different position with the mouse, everything is ok. When I move the same word again with the mouse, the blank space between the adjacent words disappears. (This happens also in the full version of TextMak...

Re: Moving word(s) causes issues

ad 1: Go to Tools > Options > Edit (with classic menus) or File > Options > General (with ribbons) respectively and check "Add or remove spaces when pasting". ad 2: How do you proceed to change the height of an empty line? If you set the cursor in the line, then go to Format > Paragraph......

Re: Files for old versions

Obviously either old program or install files. Each version of FreeOffice is complete, so it is safe to delete the old files.

Re: No hyphenation in the Russian text.

If you are using the ribbon interface, go to "Layout", then click "Hyphenation" and make sure that "Automatic hyphenation" is checked and "Do not hyphenate" is not. (With classic menus, it's "Tools > Automatic hyphenation" and Format > Paragraph, tab...

Re: Text flow between boxes

I think you are quite right on both points. It should be possible to set a fixed height as default for text boxes. And master pages are now only useful for fixed objects (like a logo), to be repeated without any change on each page. At present, when I create a document with several pages, set a text...

Re: Text flow between boxes

I use the classic menu, too, so this makes it easier for me. :wink: Maybe I was a bit too short and cryptic the last time, so I‘ll give it another try: First of all, if you want to link (connect) text boxes, you mustn’t place them on a master page. It would be really great if TextMaker could link te...

Re: Text flow between boxes

Text boxes in TextMaker are by default created with fixed width and growing height. First of all, you should invoke the object properties of all text boxes (tab “Format”) and set the height to “fixed”. To connect the boxes, choose (in object mode) “Link text frame” in the right-click menu of the fir...
