Bot Roda Posted March 11, 2005 Author Posted March 11, 2005 I've searched Filemaker Help and can't seem to find anywhere to set "hyphenation" on. I'm typing in an invoice description (for types of services rendered) field and when getting to the end of the text box, it's not hyphenating the words, forcing me to manually enter a "return" to type on the next line. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Ender Posted March 11, 2005 Posted March 11, 2005 There is no built-in hyphenation feature in FileMaker Pro. But line-wrapping should be working automatically.

Bot Roda Posted March 12, 2005 Author Posted March 12, 2005 Thanks. Where do I check to see if "line Wrapping" is on, because as I mentioned my words are being broken when I get to the limit of the text field.

BobWeaver Posted March 13, 2005 Posted March 13, 2005 Line wrapping is always on. Just keep typing. The lines will wrap when you get to the end. If they are breaking in the middle of the word, it may be that you have the line-breaking options set incorrectly. You can find this in the File menu under File options. Under the text tab, you will find options to use Asian or Roman line-breaking, or both. Asian line-breaking will break on any character, so you may have to deselect it.

Bot Roda Posted March 14, 2005 Author Posted March 14, 2005 When I went to file options, text tab, I discovered neither Asian nor Roman were checked; the problem was corrected after I checked Roman. Thanks for the help!
