I have noticed when copying and pasting Prime characters in the Noto Serif font that spaces are automatically put before and after them. I have Smart space management on. I checked the lists for Smart space management and those characters are not in it. Is there some place else where this is set? I know for me I do not want this behavior as I am using them for quotes of non-speech items.

The “smart space management” of Atlantis supports only common punctuation signs.

From now on Atlantis will not suggest space-related corrections for “unsupported” punctuation signs.

Hyphenation

Post by Eduardo »

Hi,

This may not be a bug, but a feature not yet implemented. I am not sure.
Anyway, opening an old file written in Portuguese, I get the following message:

Sorry but the hyphenation module currently doesn't support the "Portuguese (Portugal)" language.

If not implement yet, would it be possible in the near futures?

Thanks for the wonderful work.

Kind regards.

E.

The font Strikeout is no longer working on Unicode fixed-width spaces like Em Space, En Space, 1/4 Em Space, 1/3 Em Space, and 1/6 Em Space.

On reopening an RTF file [English (United States)] a lot of the accents on characters in words were missing:
Proszacha — Proszáchá
Bethe — Bethé
Godel-Church — Gödel-Church

French:
cliches — clichés
naive — naïve

The following accented words did not have the accents missing:
Egz prá strasticzek Maria, dó
Nandór

French:
blasé
clichés
façade
naïveté
protégé

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 ’) are no longer treated as punctuation. I.e. when doubleclicking the first or the last word in a phrase that has quotation marks, the quotation mark is selected along with it. This doesn't happen with double quotation marks: there only the word is selected, not the quotation mark.
I'd personally prefer it if the behaviours were identical for double and single quotation marks, and I prefer the behaviour with double quotation marks.
But as I say, I'm not sure if it only started to behave like this, or if it always behaved like this and I only now started to notice.

Atlantis has always worked this way.

There will be probably a new set of “advanced” options in Atlantis soon (maybe in version 4.3.x). Maybe one of those options will be “Always treat apostrophes as punctuation marks”.

Cannot say anything definitive. Sorry.

Thanks for the file. But I am not sure that it can be used to reproduce the problem. The file contains "Godel-Church" without accents. The latest beta correspondingly displays it without accents.

Do you mean that you have a document file containing those words with accents, and if resaved with this beta, accents get lost?

Hi admin,
I had that file until I opened it. I put the accented words back in that file, saved it, and closed it. When I reopened the file the accents were again missing. Do you want me to put the accented words back in the file I sent you, save it, close it, and send that file to you?

If the Backup Files tool is enabled in your Atlantis, the original copy of your document is probably still available under “My documents\Atlantis\Backup”.

What if you create a much shorter document containing only “Gödel-Church”. As I understand, if you save it, the accent would be lost. If so, please email that short document file or post it here. Then tell how exactly you add the accent to “Godel”.

And please also email your current Atlantis configuration file ("My documents\Atlantis\Atlantis.ini").

Hi admin,
Backup Files is not enabled.
Creating a book RTF with only Godel-Church in it does not lose the diaresis on opening.
The first time I put accents in words is through Insert Symbol (Alt+i, Enter) with the letter selected. I find the accented character I want (usually starting at U+00E0), select it, press Enter (the Insert button is always highlighted), Esc to exit Symbols & Characters. I then save that accented word in the book's companion file list of misspelled words with a note if it is a foreign language or accented English (United States).
When I am entering OCR into the book file and run across that accented word again I copy that word from the companion file and paste it onto the selected word in the book file.
This means I have 2 files with all the same accented words in them. Opening these 2 book files does not cause the same behavior with the removal of accents from words. In general in the last 2 books whose formatting I have been updating prepatory to loading in my new Kobo eReader accents are removed from different words in each file pair.
I have emailed the configuration file.

UPDATE: It's a problem with my Control key!

All of a sudden my Hot Keys aren't working reliably. They were fine and then, suddenly, Ctrl-s, instead of Saving, just gives me an "s" and from time to time Ctrl-x, Ctrl-c, and Ctrl-v are giving me just the letters x, c, and v, instead of cutting, copying, and pasting. I accidentally had invoked Fast Navigation, but turned that off again and restarted Atlantis, but the behaviour is continuing. Is there something else I need to do to make the Hot Keys work reliably? I use them without even thinking and it's getting very frustrating.

I should also mention I'm using the most recent Beta on a Win 10 Pro (also up-to-date) laptop.

Thanks!

Here is an odd thing...

Atlantis crashed last night (pasting some (copied) data into a file), and unusually for the only time I remember after a crash, it seems the atlantis.ini file was wiped out.

On restarting Atlantis the carefully crafted and organised tool bar was lost, and the new document count was set back to Doc01.rtf.

All this is with the latest Beta build e3...

Is there a way to save the toolbar arrangement (which is set of course to suit my preferences) so should this happen again so the tool bar can be restored to my preferred layout?

Also this would make running Atlantis on my other machine easier as I can have things looking the way I want more easily if I have a file to restore.
Should I be saving the .ini file and restoring that, or is there a particcular part of the file I can use to overwrite?

Does the "save to file" on the tools > options capture what I am asking?

Thanks
