Re: Powertype suggestions & scrolling: changed?

Okay. I guess like so often, what isn't supposed to be is actually rather nice.

It's slightly counterintuitive to me that they aren't supposed to, however. Because when navigating with the keyboard through the menu (i.e. pressing ALT to move the focus to the menu, and then navigating with the ...

Re: Powertype suggestions & scrolling: changed?

It helps.
Did it always work this way, i.e. am I misremenbering the continuous scrolling (i.e. in a loop)?

Powertype suggestions & scrolling: changed?

I'm on version 4.4.3.9.

I seem to notice a minor change in the Power Type behaviour, it must be in one of the very last updates.
When the suggestions pop up, say underneath my cursor (whether underneath or above depends on the position of the cursor on screen), and say there are 7 or 8 suggestions ...

Re: main window size not (always) remembered anymore?

Also, I actually always switch between the two modes by double-clicking the title bar, not by clicking the maximize/non-maximize button at the right hand top. But I don't suspect that will make a difference.
And as I said, I've only just upgraded to the very latest version, it remains to be seen if ...

Re: main window size not (always) remembered anymore?

It's weird, isn't it. I can't consciously produce it, but it has happened a few times over the past weeks.

I don't use F9.
The non-maximised window is usually centered on my (very wide) screen, filling it entirely in the vertical direction, but leaving open space to the left and right of it. In ...

main window size not (always) remembered anymore?

I regularly switch Atlantis from a full size window to a custom sized window that takes up about half my screen. (I mean the Atlantis window itself, not the document windows within Atlantis.) I've noticed in the last version (or versions) it has suddenly stopped remembering the exact size of the ...

Re: allcaps

However, I do see that "all caps" in the list of font properties (next to bold & italic &c), so next time it occurs I'll now how to turn it off. Hopefully. Might be less annoying than having to delete & retype or cut & repast without formatting. I'll try, and also try to pay attention to what ...

Re: allcaps

No, the problem is not with the Caps lock key or its light. Because the caps lock key is system wide, but when the caps lock thing happens it's just an area of a document in Atlantis that seems to be affected. Note that I also said that in those cases, the text typed with caps lock on (and in upper ...

Re: allcaps

Okay, thanks, but is this peculiar to Atlantis? Because I've never noticed this in MS Word or any other word processor. This distinction between allcaps and uppercase? For me (and as far as I know every other programme I've worked with), allcap has simply meant every letter is in upper case.

allcaps

Sometimes, and only sometimes, when I put text in allcaps (by pressing capslock and then typing text), and then release the capslock again, Atlantis will go into a mode where anything that I type after those words in allcaps will still be in allcaps, even though I haven't pressed shift or allcaps ...

word count differences

How do word processors count words? And whence the discrepancies?
I have a text here, an abbreviated version of a NYT article, which MS Word says counts 1141 words, while Atlantis puts it at 1172.
And when I copy/paste the text into a plain text editor (Editpad), it says the text contains 1184 ...

improvement in getting word count maxed out?

At some point, if you've been using Atlantis for a while, the word count in the status bar no longer functions. It keeps saying 0 words for all documents.

You can still get the statistics by doubleclicking it, the pop-up window with full (and presumably accurate) statisticks will then appear. But ...

behaviour with US international keyboard layout

I have a minor feature request in the way Atlantis handles the input of the ' key when using the US International layout (far and away the most used keyboard layout for Dutch users, and maybe other languages containing a number of diacritical accents as well, I don't know).

With this keyboard ...

Re: Atlantis Word Processor 4.3 (beta)

Not entirely sure if this is a beta issue, or something that was introduced before that, or even if it is a regular feature (I haven't kept a non beta version of the programme to check). If the latter, I'm not sure I see the logic.
When selecting words by doubleclick, single quotation marks (‘ and ...

Correction, I was too soon to reply. I'm fairly sure that when I went to look at the interface for autocorrection, I saw listed more than the default items.

After that, I closed Atlantis and restarted. DIdn't look at it again. I added an item to autocorrect (via the right click menu on a spelling ...

In beta c0 the autocorrect items are present on start-up.

I'll continue trying this.

No, i always launch it from the shortcut in the Windows taskbar, and as far as I can see that refers to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Atlantis\awp.exe".
