Love this software + 2 suggestions

Post by paul1149 »

Fantastic job all around, you guys should be proud. It's a beautiful piece of work, and extremely functional.

I really like the ability to go with the old WordPerfect 5.0 DOS color scheme - white on navy. Very easy on the eyes.

That brings me to a suggestion - a bit of a bug, really. The highlight options in the reverse color scheme are very ungainly. And when doing a Search the selection highlight is barely visible. I think the highlight functions have to relate to the current color scheme.

2nd suggestion: I was surprised to see that the spacebar does not function as PgDwn, as many readers have incorporated. Makes for easy extended reading.

Really great job, and thanks.

I don't see any problem with the first problem. I can select white text on dark navy blue in Preferences, Accessibility. Selected text is a darker blue.

You can assign whatever shortcuts you want by using the customise option. Right-click on any toolbar to bring up the customise dialogue. Select the commands tab, View category and assing space to next page — shift space to previous page.

Thanks, I didn't know the keyboard was mappable. Very nice.
