Trial Version issues

[okmike]

I downloaded the trial to see if it is significantly better than v. 1, and the file was a msix, I had to google how to open it.

The first thing I did was open my last file and attempt to change style of a paragraph. I put the cursor on the text, and hit the "MyQuote" style and nothing happened, just the same as with version 1.

I got into the habit of creating two styles exactly alike, because the text would not update when I updated a style, so I had to click some other style then back to the one I wanted again and the paragraph would update.

But for some reason it does not want to do that now. I have the text set for New times roman, which is what it was in the original .docx file before I imported, but for some reason it shows up as Bell MT. So I click the style I have set and it will not change.

I am NOT going to go through a 300 page book and select each section of quoted text and change the font.

I will NOT BUY THIS PROGRAM and I am going to change back to MS Publisher. I am tired of swearing at this program.

Bye.

Did you actually have any of the text selected (highlighted) when you did this?

99% of the time I do not need to select the text, and should not have to, just clicking a style applies all the features of it to that paragraph. It is same with MS Publisher.

You can use the Find and Replace tool to globally replace a paragraph style with another style without the need of selects any of the text.
