    Smart Map: Reveal ALL (map, pins, & associated content)

    I'm redoing my maps to make things less messy and easier to read. I just created a map that shows a specific kingdom and the boundaries of the major administrative divisions ("Amker"). I then place a pin in each Amker that I associated to the Amker's topic. Now I have to go to each pin, right...

    Crashing on Player View

    With the recent update, RW is stable for editing again, which is a relief. But I still encounter an issue that I've had for some time. Occasionally when I try to share something in player view, RW will crash. I don't know that this is a bug, it may be a memory issue. Usually, at the start of...

    Have common issues been found to be behind why topics are crashing RW?

    I'm curious...well, actually, I need some hope and good news...has the team determined any root causes on why topic editing has become so unstable? Since the conversion to HTML, there have been many folks posting about topics causing RW to crash. But even in just my own realm, the wonky ones...

    Reporting error problem.

    FWIW, I just got this error message for the first time. I had just created a new Special Item topic and saved it, creating links as part of saving it. Next, I deleted the picture (simple) snippet, which was one of the default snippets for that topic type. When I tried to save it again, it...

    How to manage unsituated places

    Okay, in the real world, "unsituated locations" would be a contradiction in terms. But in sandbox/open-world styles of campaigning, it is very helpful to have locations, especially villages stocked up that you can provide to players. My home-brew campaign world is huge. I will never have every...

    Making External Object Snippets Searchable

    One of the cool, easily overlooked, minor feature enhancements is: Very nice way of adding hidden search terms for an image or audio file. Works great. The one downside I see is that it will be easy to forget that you've added this hidden search text and you may not know why a certain topic or...

    Show in Current Navigation - what does it do?

    One of the minor enhancements in the new release has me confused: I was thinking that this would find where the current article is listed in the navigation pane on the right. But selecting this from the topic/article options menu or using the hot key don't appear to do anything. I'm sure I'm...

    Auto-Expand Quick Help Dialogs

    Was playing around with the new snippet tags features in the new release (very nice BTW). When I first opened the Manage Tags option tab, RW presented the following dialog box: When you click "show more" you get all the useful information. But when I first saw it, I thought there was a...

    Manage Names (was "Aliases")

    Great upgrade in how to manage alternate names for a topic or article. I predict, however, that in the future, we'll see posts in these forums asking why the hot key for Manage Names is CTRL+SHIFT+A :)

    Default Style Prefrences Options Boxes cut off at top

    Excited about the update! Install was smooth and the new features are very welcome. The ability to set default styles is one of those features I've already put to use. But one small issue is that the font-option boxes are cut off at top. It doesn't prevent me from using them to set the options...

    WoTC D&D 5e Elements Survey 8

    The new WoTC Survey is available: http://sgiz.mobi/s3/D-D-5e-Elements-Survey-8 I've been using the optional comments section of the surveys to beg WoTC to license content for RW and HL. Of course I make sure to provide thoughtful feedback on the main topic of the survey itself, but hopefully...

    RealmWorks and 3D printer Files

    To distract myself while waiting for a meaningful number of RW users to upgrade their software so that we can get the next major release, I started thinking about associating *.STL (STereoLithography) files to scenes in RW. I recently became a backer of Fat Dragon's kickstarter campaign for...

    Apply smart-map pins to boundaries

    I don't expect RW to become a map-management application, but it would help if I could draw a boundary on a map and associate a pin to that boundary. In lieu of that, the ability to customize pins with different colors and even different icons would help, though I know that this is already a...

    DnD 5e DMs and Players - be sure to mention RW in current survey

    WoTC just put up its 7th survey. I made sure to complete it honestly and to tell them why I am not buying their published adventures: I don't like DMing an adventure from a book and urged them to make their material available in RealmWorks. Survey here...

    Phrase Express Macros for Realm Works

    Quick Way to Have Full Formatting Control via Styles in RealmWorks If you have the paid version of RW, be sure to check out MS Word phrase feature. It allows you a way to easily make fully customized styles available in RW, giving you full control over your fonts. The styles only apply to the...

    Setting Custom Styles

    NOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo! While styles are limited in their use because of they cannot be created within RW and those that are created from pasting formatted text are not available outside the topic containing the pasted text, it is still VERY useful. I will sometimes write up my session notes...

    Setting Custom Styles

    I feel like I must be missing something obvious. How do I create a new style on the RW "format" ribbon? I can edit an existing style by clicking on the gray arrow on the bottom right of the "styles" group to bring up the "modify style" dialog box. But that only allows me to edit the existing...

    Search for all Revealed/Unrevealed Topics

    I would like to be able to add reveal state as a search parameter when searching topics. For all topics that have been revealed to the party, I can use player view, but how about the opposite? If I want to see those items that have NOT been revealed to them. For example, I have a whole bunch...

    Filter Tags as You Type

    The current tag snippets are dependent on the mouse. As the numbers of tags increases, I find myself wishing more and more for the ability to start typing the tag that I want and have RW filter/suggest the tags based on what I'm typing. In other words, I would like the tag-select interface to be...

    Can I search for all revealed/unrevealed topics?

    Since I only use RW for one campaign world and with only one party, the reveal status is what I use to know whether the party has completed an adventure, been part of a scene, visited a location, met an NPC, etc. If I only want to see what has been revealed to the party, I can use player view...
