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...

Re: Printing an accent over a letter in Textmaker
Go to Insert > Symbol (the lambda icon mentioned before). Select the accented character in the character table (click to make it appear big). In the bottom left corner, you will probably see "Shortcut key: none". Click the "Change..." button. In the dialog box appearing now, pres...

Re: Option to paste unformatted text on right click menu
I missed this feature, too. My workaround was to define a keyboard shortcut for the command "Paste plain text" in Tools > Customise, Category "Edit". I have chosen Shift+Cmd+V as it is similar to Cmd+V for "Paste". This is even quicker than calling up the right click me...

Re: Printing an accent over a letter in Textmaker
I'm on a Mac mini 2018 with Monterey 12.4 and an Apple keyboard. Apple support explains how to type accented characters here: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/mac-help/mh27474/mac As I wrote before, the accent menu doesn’t work in TextMaker, but dead keys do. However, I have to apologize as my ...

Re: Printing an accent over a letter in Textmaker
The accent keys are “dead keys“. When you press the ´ key (for example), nothing happens. Then you press the e key, and é appears. At least, this is the way it works for me.

Re: Printing an accent over a letter in Textmaker
Unfortunately, TextMaker doesn't support this specific Mac functionality so far. It is possible, however, to get the most common accented letters like á, è or ô by pressing the accent key (´, `, or ^) and then the letter. For more exotic accented letters, there is the option to insert characters fro...

Re: Printing duplex (two-sided)
You may try to select in the list of available printers not your printer directly, but "Apple print dialog (system)". This brings you to the Apple printer driver where you can select duplex printing.

Re: How do I SUM in textmaker table? (free version)
Yes, the calculation feature is available in FreeOffice, too. You just have to insert the range of table cells you want to sum up between the brackets. For example, if you have a table with five columns (A to E) and three rows (1 to 3), and you want to sum up columns A to D of row 2 in the fifth col...

Re: Copy customization to new Mac?
In ~/Users/<USERNAME>/SoftMaker/ there is a folder named "Settings". Copy this folder to the same location on your new Mac to keep your customizations.

Re: Underlining spelling mistakes
The question was not about spellcheck in TextMaker not working properly. This is all fine. The issue is bad visibility, as the red underlining of mistakes is too thin.

Re: Baskerville ???
The fact that two fonts are both named „Baskerville“ doesn't guarantee that they are more or less the same. The three "Baskervilles" you mentioned are three different fonts. They are all inspired by and in some degree similar to the original metal typeface designed by John Baskerville in t...

Re: TextMaker not Printing
Could you please give a more detailed description of what happens when you try to print? Which printer is it and how is it connected to your computer?
