Hello, it's me, your OP, again. Upon reflection, I believe that TM is handling heading numeric-bullets and ordinary paragraph numeric-bullets identically, even though this is not something anyone would ordinarily want. It's almost inconceivable that someone would have identical heading levels follow...

Greetings, It seems to me that there is a problem with how TextMaker 2024 (TextMaker Professional 2024 (rev S1218.0824) 64bit) is handling numbered bullets in Heading paragraph styles. I have set both “Heading 1” and “Heading 2” to include Bullet –> Numbering. This is what I get: [attachment=1]Subj ...

Dear ST, Thanks for the reply! When I inserted the picture from a file, I used the Object → New Picture command, which I accessed from the classic menu system (no buttons were involved). When I right-click on the picture (see the attached screen capture), I am given the opportunity to “Convert (it) ...

Dear SuperTech, Thanks for your quick reply. While no one can question your super'ness, I must confess that I find your advice less super. Admittedly, my primary problem with it is that it would require me to add things to my todo list, which is already overflowing. I'm also not sure that I would be...

Greetings, If I move the mouse pointer over the page zoom part of TextMaker’s status bar, I will likely zoom the page even though I am not pushing any of my pointer’s buttons. If Windows’ task bar appears (I have it set to auto-hide), and I click on something that happens to be over one of TextMaker...

Dear JezShed,

Just a short note to say the following:
a. I agree with your assessment on SMO vs. MS.
b. I found your post very interesting; thanks!
c. Thanks for having problems fixed before I encounter them!

Let's hope you have many more issues!

Greetings, Problem: A picture inserted into a TextMaker document via the “New Picture” command (which loads a picture file into a document) results in the picture being inserted in accordance with my “Default” settings. A picture inserted into a document via “Paste Special” → “DIB picture” is insert...

Greetings, As I know more than most, life isn't fair. For a relevant example, consider Microsoft. They make a bloated crappy office suite that lacks any documentation, yet they seem to have met with a "certain" amount of market success. SoftMaker makes (or made) a properly documented, far ...

Greetings, Regarding the new (as of Thursday, October 27, 2022) version of BeckerCAD (BeckerCAD14 3D Pro for Windows) that is being marketed to existing SoftMaker and/or SoftMaker BeckerCAD users: a. Must one or should one REMOVE the previous (Softmaker) version BeckerCAD (BeckerCAD12 3D Pro) before...

Howdy, Whilst one can modify the new new-dialog-box, one can't modify it to my requirements. What I like is to be able to easily read the template titles, which I always make descriptive (to me, at least, mostly ;-)). Being able/forced to scroll though a sequence of images of blank pages just isn't ...

Dear Super, Thanks for your very prompt reply! No, I confess I did not carefully examine the PDF you posted. I have, however, done so now. The TOC in your PDF is correctly formatted, however TextMaker, Windoze, or someone/something else made font substitutions such that the PDF you produced does not...

Greetings, My belated two cents: As a question about the financial operations of a software company, it is quite interesting. I wouldn't, however, make my purchasing decisions based upon the answer (if you ever get one, which you didn't and probably won't). Let's not forget that we are in a symbioti...

Dear Super, I'm sorry to have taken so long to reply, but I am hardly a carefree man-of-leisure. I'm (reasonably) sure that the TOC problem has been occurring for some time, and I'm (absolutely) sure I'd like to get it fixed. Let's start from the beginning and build from there. 1. Did you observe th...

Greetings, I am not an SM employee, just a customer. I found your post interesting, so I thought I’d do a little bit of research (emphasis on little) and see if I could help you or at least increase the level in my own pool of knowledge. N.B. Insert an “AFAIK” before every declarative statement. ;-)...

Dear Super,

Wow, that's super! Thanks for the update! If only Bill were as attentive to his customers!
