I'm assuming that the document mode is accessed via the button on the lower right next to the zoom spyglass. When I hover over it, Windows 10 as I never got the fonts fixed in Linux, it blinks like crazy and it's hard to select.

In addition, I ran into an issue trying to upsave some old files. I updated the font to Calibri and now the text in the descriptions do not match. New variables are using calibri and old variables that I carried over are still in Ariel

This font issues bothers me much too on Linux. Bold and italic characters doesn't show on worksheets.
They appear as normal font characters. I have mentioned about this problematic issue before.

EISid,
to activate the 'document' mode follow the instructions contained in the first post of this discussion.
That unstable button at the bottom right (it is unstable even in win10) is used for pagination but not in 'document' mode.

No. Quoting an instruction here from my first post:

Here is an instruction about how one can make Document mode enabled:

1. Open Tools > Plugins..., find and select Text Region, set Document mode checkbox checked:
   
   
2. Find a New document item in File menu:

It was decided to show all descriptions using monospace font with no regards to what font is set as default for the document. This was implemented few Months ago.

Best regards.

Is it possible to make the descriptions and the "Area" descriptors uniform? Monospace font is fine, consistency would be appreciated. Calculations look due to different text fonts. INTERPOLATION is a new area.

I'm surprised this has not been seen by others as I've been in-communicato for a while.
Thanks for fixing the blinking annoyance on the new build!

Prepared a short demo:

Important improvements in todays update: https://en.smath.com/forum/yaf_postst20114_Beta--SMath-Studio-0-99-7691--21-January-2021.aspx

Search in text significantly improved:


Invisible symbols can be shown:


Automatic replacement can be disabled:


+ work with ordered/unordered lists significantly improved.

Best regards.

Copy from Worksheet to Document finally implemented:


It is also possible now to paste images from Clipboard directly to Text.
Of course it works in both cases: for Worksheet and Document modes.

Finally, SMath Studio splitted to two different applications: SMath Solver and SMath Writer.




SMath Solver
This is a new name to what was previously called SMath Studio. This application allows user to be focused on calculations.



SMath Writer
Created for work with rich text which includes math. Has Ribbon menu built-in and interface tuned for best experience in documentation and text formatting.



SMath Studio
This is a name which gathers Solver and Writer in a single package.

Both applications supports their own file formats: Solver - *.sm, Writer - *.smw. If you have created Documents in SMath Studio using previous program versions please just change an extension manually.



Today I've release beta version of SMath Studio package which contains Solver/Writer inside - https://en.smath.com/forum/yaf_postst21450_Beta--SMath-Studio-0-99-7921--08-September-2021.aspx
Please note: Solver has no any significant changes, so one can continue using it in production, but Writer is an alpha version of what I've started to work on. Writer requires more time from me to be polished to have all the same features as currently available in Solver.

Let me know what you think.

Best regards, Andrey Ivashov.

A very nice feature, thanks alot!

New Release soon, please!
