Now you mention it, no. That is, I can see Google Drive, and my pCloud drive, but not OneDrive. There's a can of worms here, and I don't think it's entirely down to Softmaker, though it's complicated for me by the fact I'm using a Microsoft Surface Duo (one of the reasons I bought it was to have a u...

Is there a way to change the default configuration/settings location? In Options I can see how to change the template location, and also how to import/export my modifed configuration files, but I really want to stop SMO looking for them on OneDrive, which is so sluggish that it often creates file co...

When I use the Textmaker file/open icon it offers me my cloud services as well as the main on-device file locations - in my case (Google) Drive, OneDrive and pCloud (my preferred option). All of three are also installed as apps on my phone, and I haven't had to tweak any other settings to make this ...

Small question - I've enrolled on the beta programme, and indeed the app page on Google Play says I'm a beta tester, but it also says the app will be updated now on the beta channel. But it looks exactly the same as it did before, including the file dialogue, and there's nothing in the title bar or ...

I'm glad, but the update installed itself automatically and all I saw was a newly dark text background, and then looking through the usual options for changing the UI there was nothing obvious (why would anyone think to look at the options on the quick menu, or even notice that a new rectangle had a...

What have you done? I have worked enough with typography and design to know that having reversed out text against a dark background is a complete no no for long texts, so I've never had any sympathy with the crudity of so many dark modes. Yes I understand the argument about screen glare, particularl...

I see Microsoft has announced that there will be an ARM version of its Surface Go, which I've found to be a great machine for working on the move. I imagine the Softmaker suite will work under emulation, and I realise this is probably a niche interest (since you've already got ios and Android versio...

That's useful to know, but strange because I hadn't touched the default setting (and have never had cause to look at that dropdown). I'd add more generally that when I first saw the list of changes in the new version I thought "is that it?" But as I've been using it I've appreciated the re...

The styles sidebar is crammed full of styles I didn't create, and which make it harder to pick out what I want. But if I then click on "manage styles" the dialogue lists only the styles I have created or modified, so I can't see a way of deleting the clutter. I've checked back and this isn...

Same for me ... OneDrive is central to my workflow. There's also been a long standing problem with OneDrive and SMO - I work regularly across two machines and the sync is not reliable (basically you have to remember to wait a good few minutes before shutting down whatever machine you've been working...

I've been raising this problem for weeks, and said it would become a real problem when the Win11 Beta hit the release channel. That's what's happening now. Sure it's an OS problem in one way, but for me at least it's only the Softmaker apps that have been affected. Shouldn't you at least be talking ...

I flagged this up before as an issue when planned Win11 updates became official, and now here we are. MSFT has updated Windows 11 officially to version 22621.675. Not everyone has it yet but it's being rolled out. It makes (welcome) changes to File Explorer and the Taskbar. Unfortunately these chang...

It is an OS problem, but it doesn't affect the other apps I have on my taskbar, and I'm just trying to warn you that it may persist into the next released version of Win11, since that's due any day now, and will presumably be based on the code which has been causing the problem. If that's so, then a...

I can now say it's definitely a problem with the latest beta of Windows 11. I've just updated my third machine which was on the release preview to the beta insider program, and I'm now getting the same issue with the softmaker apps. There have been changes to the taskbar functionality, but whatever ...

Ok I managed finally to run the debug script. Hope it helps but of course doing this as a run command simply opens Textmaker with a blank document, which is not the problem. Textmaker opens fine with a simple click on the taskbar icon, to a blank document, but it's when I try to open an existing fil...
