Greetings, The majority of the default settings for most of the things in a PlanMaker or TextMaker document are set by the template used when the new document is created. Unless otherwise specified, the default template is Normal.PMVX for PlanMaker and Normal.TMVX for Textmaker. If you format a work...

Dear Mr. Leßmann, I sent a small TMD file to the e-mail address you previously supplied. It seems pretty good at crashing TM 2018. Try opening and closing it a few times and let me know of your results. I have one other file (that I know of) that seems to reliably crash TM 2018. It is at least 20 ti...

Greetings, Addendum: 1. Recently TextMaker 2018, rev. 928.0314, inserted a newly created object with a negative offset that placed the object off the screen. Though I relatively rarely used TM's object functions, I don't recall any version of TM improperly positioning a new object: if TM improperly ...

Greetings, Just a bit of additional information in case it helps anyone. In my previous post, I wrote the following: “If there is a reason why TextMaker 2018 shouldn't be configured to save files as TextMaker 2016 .TMD files, do warn me -- as I hope TextMaker 2018 will!” I wrote the above because I ...

Addendum: Two further (extremely) new discoveries: 1. It seems that "New Drawing," "Rounded Rectangle" (the only "New Drawing" object I currently use) forgets its "Transparency" property -- and possibly other properties too -- after a file is saved in .TMDX fo...

Greetings, So far I’ve found two TextMaker 2016 TMD (no X) documents I previously created that crash TextMaker 2018, rev. 928.0314. In case it matters, I’m using TextMaker 2018 on a 8GB RAM equipped laptop running Win 7, 64-bit. Previously, TextMaker 2018 would just crashed. Just recently, and just ...

Howdy and thanks for the reply. Yes, I'm virtually 100% sure one can restore the object to its original position by undoing the move. Indeed, I'm virtually 100% sure I have done so myself many times. (The older I get, the less I'm absolutely 100% sure of. ;-) That the object stays selected was a fai...

Move Object with Mouse ‒ Object “Disappear” Greetings, Problem: “Grab” an object with your mouse, move it, and then release it: it may be exactly where it should be, or it may seemingly disappear. If the object disappears, it is not actually gone. It appears to have vanished because it has been give...

No, thank you!

Greetings, Using TextMaker 2018, revision 923, .TMDX format, I set the rows of a table to “Keep together with next row” and the cells to a size based upon the percentage of the line width. The changes were implemented properly. After the file was saved, closed, and then reopened, however, the rows l...

Gentlemen,

Just a short note to say thanks for the feedback.

Cordially,
Richard

Greetings, I would prefer it if TextMaker were perfect, rather than just very good. For this reason I’ve decided to finally report some bugs I’ve found, both new and old. So as to avoid littering the forum, I thought I’d put them all in this thread ‒ unless anyone has a better idea. The first bug: U...

Greetings. Because of the apparent quality of TextMaker, and the clear quality of its support forum, I took the plunge and purchased the TM for Windows/Linux combo CDROM. With regard to the purchase process, I thought I'd mention a few problems/suggestions. I hope you don't think me too impertinent....
