Hanging Indent problem

Post by enonod »

Textmaker Pro 2021 (rev S1038.1028) 64 bit.
Windows 10 and OSX Big Sur

I attach a document with a Hanging Indent paragraph style set.
Both on Windows and Mac it is the only style where pressing bacspace or delete (Mac) does not remove the new line just entered.
To test place the cursor before the word Hang then delete OR place cursor after last Hang and press enter followed by delete.
Is there an explanation please?

Thank you

I can confirm this strange behaviour. In paragraphs formatted as “Hang“ it is not possible to go with Backspace beyond the paragraph. Never seen this before (and of course, I don't have an explanation either).

I think I have found the solution: In TextMaker preferences, tab "Edit", deselect "Set left and first-line indent with Tab and Backspace keys". Then it works.
