Could SoftMaker not implement macros for us? They’re incuded in LibreOffice, and that’s free, but I’ve always been a SMO supporter and I’d prefer to stay with SMO.

In a PlanMaker spreadsheet on my Mac, I'd like to automate a goal-seek action within a cell.

I understand that,

SoftMaker Office doesn't support macros,
SoftMaker Office on the Mac excludes BasicMaker,
PlanMaker won't run scripts.

So how can I do it please, anyone?

It hasn’t happened to me again but I haven’t been using TM much.
But my earlier reports were accurate, so I’m just wondering, any resolution yet?

This is from the day after I experienced unresponsiveness, during which day I’ve been doing further work on the same document without experiencing a repeat of yesterday’s diminished TM performance.

I'm struggling away with this because I'm trying to work on a current document, and I just discovered something that might be important: When TM becomes massively unresponsive, I can cure it immediately by just slightly re-sizing the TM window.

I forgot to mention earlier that I had rebooted the Mac to see if that fixed it. It hadn't done. Now, I saved my document and ...

Thanks Jodi. I too have not found anything that fails to work on MacOS/Parallels. Maybe I’ll try reinstalling.

In my writing, I often need to quote part of something another person has written or said. This can very often be just a short phrase of part of a sentence, which I indicate by means of an ellipsis to signify preceding and/or following words that are omitted.

Sometimes, when I want a document to look very smart, I spend a lot of time with multi-line titles, headings, captions, headers, footers, any text boxes, sometimes with last lines of paragraphs. and so on, fiddling with character pitch, letter spacing, 'leading,' and so on, to try to give blocks of ...
