Re: Autocorrect entries lost (again)

Thanks for the comprehensive response. I never run more than 1 AWP instance. Something must have gone wrong yesterday because today, after renanming the .ini file, and starting AWP again, autocorrect entries were loaded from registry. Why so many entries? I write in French on a US keyboard and words...

Re: Autocorrect entries lost (again)

Thanks for the advice. My AutoCorrect entries are continuously evolving while I'm using AWP. I should then back up the .ini file (or save the AutoCorrect file) each time I'm done with a session. This is not convenient, but if it's the way to save the accrued corrections I'll do it. It still seems to...

Re: Autocorrect entries lost (again)

I need to recuperate autocorrect entries that are in the registry, since it contains newer ones I don't have in my backup.

Can you please suggest the best way to do that. Should I downgrade to an earlier AWP version which still loads setting from registry? Or is there a simpler way?

Thanks

Re: Autocorrect entries lost (again)

Autocorrect entries are still in the registry indeed (I hadn't checked that earlier), but they don't get loaded after renaming .ini and starting AWP. I do have a backup, which I can load, but I added a number of entries since it was made, and I was hoping to recover those as well. All was working fi...

Autocorrect entries lost (again)

I posted earlier about Autocorrect entries not loading when AWP starts (https://www.atlantiswordprocessor.com/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2581). I was told to rename the .ini file, and start again. That worked because entries were read from registry (I have close to 10K entries in French). But I was wa...

Re: Section collapse

I think equipping each section with a proper heading would be a better solution.
That's what I started to do, but you need another heading after the section in order to collapse it, otherwise it's not delimited.

Another thing I'm doing is setting the section font to 1, which almost collapses it.

Section collapse

It would be nice to be able to collapse a Section (Headings collapsing is great but one needs a heading at the top and another at the bottom).

This could also be accomplished with a Hide Text option, once the whole Section is selected.

You're right. Thank you

At some point in the past I had to turn this option off. Before replying I was trying to remember why.

Re: Space in French quotes

It does replace quotes with guillemets, but no space is inserted.

Space in French quotes

In French, there is a space between the quotes (guillemets) and the quoted text, « et voilà ».
Word automatically inserts such non-breaking spaces in French texts. How can I get AWP to do the same thing?

Re: Customized AutoCorrect entries gone

Text language and AutoCorrect language match (French). I use AutoCorrectAll, a wonderful Atlantis feature. I don't always check results right away, but I started noticing some substitutions were not occurring. Then I realized AWP reverted to the default replacement list. I believe it happened after ...

Re: Customized AutoCorrect entries gone

The big question now is where are my customized AutoCorrect entries? I had several thousands replacements (accented French words, etc.) curated over the years. Please don't tell me it's lost.

There was a similar issue with Dutch language last March (mine is French): http://www.atlantiswordprocessor.com/en ... 916#p11916].
Couldn't that be related?

Customized AutoCorrect entries gone

When I perform AutoCorrect it doesn't use my customized list to replace text any longer (version 4.3.5.1 on Windows 7). The entries are still in \Documents\Atlantis\Spellcheck in a .zlx file. But I can't load that file in the AutoCorrect Option dialog, and there is no Help for "zlx", appar...

Re: AutoCorrect options window no longer appears (Windows 7)

Dialog pops up with Factory Setting. I'll send the appropriate files to support. Thanks

UPDATE: Now that I've reinstalled V4 I get the AutoCorrect window even without Factory setting. So I'll hold on to that for now.

AutoCorrect options window no longer appears (Windows 7)

When I launched AutoCorrect in the past, a window would come up with several options, including the very useful one that would auto-correct the whole document at once. That window options doesn't come up with 4.3.3.0 (on Windows 7). Instead, AutoCorrect starts and hangs. The message "Performing...
