Did Publisher hyphenation settings disappear in 1.8.6?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I just began constructing a layout for a quarterly magazine, and this is my first time using Publisher 1.8.6, having used 1.8.5 previously.  In 1.8.5, I seen to recall that there were additional settings for hyphenation, particularly one setting that used a numeric value to specify the "aggressiveness" of hyphenation that would be allowed.  I'm not seeing this setting in 1.8.6; I'm only seeing "Auto", "None" and a list of hyphenation dictionaries.  Were these additional settings removed, relocated, or am I not remembering things correctly?  I've attached a screenshot of a video that shows (in German) the settings that I had used before.1932380591_ScreenShot2020-11-18at2_29_44PM.png.843fb24ddb12cd24db3c17c689c06629.png

Thanks!

Ken

Thanks, when I posted my question, I was looking for this in the "Character" panel instead of the "Paragraph" panel.  It's a bit confusing that I can toggle auto-hyphenation at either the character or the paragraph level.  I'm thinking that the setting on the "Character" panel would allow me to selectively disable hyphenation for certain character sequences within a paragraph that had hyphenation enabled?

Thanks again,

Ken

All you can specify in the Character panel is the Hyphenation Language. I suppose you could say that specifying None is the same as turning off automatic hyphenation for a piece of text, but I don't think that's usually the way the Hyphenation Language would be used.
