Hi Bill,

it sounds like a valid feature request to me. Go ahead and submit it as a feature request.

I have been trying to use 2.0, and there is a really big hurdle or missing
feature for me (or is it a bug?):

When using the sliders to change paragraph indents or margins, they do not
snap to a grid or increment and are therefore impossible to use accurately.
The only accurate way is to enter values into the dialog boxes. I have
turned on Grid and Align to Grid in options to no avail.

This is just awful, and I can't imaging committing to the product with the
ability to snap to some logical increment, such as 1/4 inch, 1/8 inch, 0.1
inch. Ideally the snap increment would be user-definable, like a CAD
program. Doing layout, setting up paragraph styles and arranging documents
is just not possible without it IMHO.

MS Word 2000, where we stopped, does snap to 1/8" increments, and when you
hold down the ALT key it disables the snap function, the slider moves freely
and the dimension is graphically shown (like 1.38") - Very nice.

I keep thinking this must be a bug - how could you design a graphics program
(which most APP's is) without this ability. Can you tell that I am an
Architect?

Please add in! I'd love to switch, but this is a deal-breaker.



Bill
