Tables are a mess. I think that is because Scrivener relies on Apple code for this, and the Apple code has bugs. (Don't quote me on that point). I don't have a solution for you other than to maintain the tables in another program, and then integrate those 150 documents by hand. But if you have to do...
I found I needed to put a ", ", in superscript, between the footnotes to get them as "1, 2". It worked great, but selecting the space between two inline footnotes is a bit fiddly.
Hi What There are two ways to indicate accented characters in Unicode: the full character or the character + a combining character. See http://www.fileformat.info for more. For instance ü is LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH DIAERESIS (U+00FC), but you can also get the same by putting a "u" plus a...
Hi I am testing MacOS High Sierra, and deciding if this is the time to upgrade. I also am back using Scrivener after a few months of not using it. I am noticing lots of annoying bugs when I am editing bulleted lists. I know that Scrivener tries to use Apple's built-in text editing system, and I susp...
Thanks. I just converted the table to text (it was only in the research folder). A total PITA, but I assume that it is Apple's ass, and your (our) pain.
I have a table in a Scrivener document, and I'm damned if I can figure out how to put the insertion point outside of and below the table. I got the table (not intentionally) by copying and pasting from a web page (linked in the text, if you want to investigate). I have various work-arounds in mind, ...
Thanks for that comment "automatic-by-language settings is by paragraph". I am working in two languages, and I found that if I pasted the same Spanish text into two different paragraphs, it would show up with "red-underlinies" in one paragraph and with Spanish spell-checking in t...
Hi Ioa I didn't report all the details because I wasn't sure if I was just confused somehow. MacBook Pro (15" early 2011), Mac OS 10.9.4, 27" screen. Yes, only in Page View—regardless of whether in the left or right pane, or if single-page or double-page view. Normal window, not full scree...
I'm going to modify this rather than posting a reply. It turns out to be a much smaller problem than I had realized. If your selection is an insertion point, it appears that you can only enter a footnote on the first page of a document. However, if you select a character, word or more text, the issu...
Thanks Katherine for your reply. I am rather befuddled, but as far as I can tell, I must have hit something in Apple's code that was then changed. I looked through my backups, and, looking at the same rtf file in my Scrivener document, which I haven't edited, I see that the word "Tiburón" ...
Sorry for another technical question about rtf generation, but I am still trying to track down bugs in my compile process. I have a long document that I am working on that I compile to rtf. The rtf is then processed through Sente, and then examined in Nisus Writer. In this document (the "legacy...
Hi I use Sente to process my output from Scrivener, and it appears that while Scrivener outputs correct rtf code, it confuses Sente. If Lit&Lat could make a very small change, I suspect that this would solve the problem. The problem is that if there is exactly one paragraph in a sentence, and if...
