- Hello,
-
- That's no joke. WPWin 5.1 really doesn't WYSIWYG!!!
-
- Write the following text and you will see that the equitation box is on
- the top of the 5th 'World'. On the right side of the box there is much
- space where the box should normally appear.
- If you delete the justification code the equitation appears
- at the right position. You can print the text without any mistakes,
- only the screen output is wrong.
-
- ======================================================================
- [Papier G/A:21c x 29,7c;aktuelles Windows-Formular][L/R
- Rand:3c;3c] [Schrift:*Times New Roman <TT>
- 12pt][Zeilenausrtg.:Blocksatz] Hello World Hello World Hello
- World Hello World Hello World[Formelbox:1;;] Hello
- World[NZ]Hello World.[FNZ]
- ======================================================================
-
- [Formelbox:1;;] is : 'x = 1 over 2' insert with the equitation editor
- (select position 'in line' form the options menu)
-
- The codes in the text are in german, because I use the german
- version of WPWin.
- I will try to translate them, but I don't know how they are
- exactly called in english:
-
- [Papier G/A:21c x 29,7c;...] = [Papersize:21c x 29.7c;normal Windows Size]
- that's DIN A4
- [L/R Rand:3c;3c] = [L/R Margin:3c;3c]
- leave 3 cm on both sides free
- [Schrift:*Times New Roman <TT> 12pt] = [Font:*Times New Roman <TT> 12pt]
- standard Times New Roman (form Win3.1)
- [Zeilenausrtg.:Blocksatz] ?=? [Justify:Full]
- use full justification (left and right margin)
- [Formelbox:1;;] = [Equatationbox:1;;]
- insert with the equitation editor: 'x = 1 over 2'
- [NZ] ?=? [CR]
- means an soft CR (don't insert, WP does)
- [FNZ] [CR/LF]
- means a hard CR
-
- You don't need all the codes. I just wanted to make sure that you can
- reproduce exactly what I did see.
-
- I'm thinking about buying the update to WPWin 5.2, but I don't want to
- get the same mistake again. So could anybody please try out, if this
- problem appears in WPWin 5.2 too.
-
- If you want to try it out look for the binary file, which I will post to
- the same group. (UUencoded)
-
- Thanks
