Math Columns Spread Out When Scrolling Throug |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: A customer has a problem with math columns in WordPerfect 5.0 documents that are retrieved into WordPerfect 5.1. As the customer cursors down through the document, the columns spread out or move off the screen. Solutions: Where the problem occurs, there is a extra [Dec Tab] code at the end of the line. This causes the line to "balloon out." In WP 5.0, the formatter appears to be able to handle the extra tab without the display being affected, but WP 5.1 tries to format according to the codes and does cause the display to spread out. The extra tab forces WP to position itself directly on the right margin causing the formatter to behave as it does. This problem occurs depending on the display pitch being used. If a customer notices that the Tab Ruler grid shows the correct measurements, but is spread out much longer than usual, they can rewrite the screen (Ctrl-F3, 3) to correct the problem. For one customer, the tab stops were displayed in the wrong position, but the status line said they were correct. They also showed correctly on the tab bar in Reveal Codes. This was corrected by using Screen Rewrite. |
