FAQs

My software expired

After 30 days, you loose access the data for the user that you created. When you Register the software you will regain access to your user data.

The software does not itself expire and you (or other family members) can continue using VistaWrite by creating new users. So, if you put away the software for a couple of weeks, you can continue evaluating it by creating a new user. There is no limit to the number of users that you can create and use.

Colors display incorrectly

Colors may not appear correct on systems using 256 colors. This is due to the limited color availability on these systems and may cause image and text colors to look wrong. Examples: colors may look wrong for themes, the Calendar Browser, selected text et cetera. To minimize this problem, we have created several themes that use less than 256 colors. If you have a 256 color system, select themes that have (256) behind their name, example: Notebook (256). Note: remember the 256 color limitation when choosing images to include in your own theme creations.

I have the 1.5 beta and want to install the 1.5 release version.

You can install the release version right on top of the beta version.

Note: If you have created new themes or made any changes to the existing theme settings save a copy of the Theme.set file (Digital Writing/VistaWrite directory) so that you will not loose your theme & personalization settings. If you do not save the theme.set file, your themes will be overwritten by the default theme file.

Some of my markers (entry tags and hilites) do not show up in the Marker's Browser.

To make ensure that all your markers appear in the Marker's Browser:

1) Click Save. Markers will not appear in the Marker's Browser unless they have been saved. Saving automatically occurs when you close an journal or notebook entry.

2) If the marker still does not appear, select the Journal Maintanence option in the Edit menu and run the Rebuild Journal and Notebook List command in the Edit menu.

Printing

VistaWrite does not print multiple pages. This is fixed in the 1.5 release version.

Printing dialog takes a long time to come up. In order to give you accurate entry page information, VistaWrite is looking at the current notebook and counting all the pages. Depending on your system and the number of entries that you have, this may take a little time.
