No, there appears to be no bold, italics or underlining.  I guess the way to accentuate things is single quotes.  Kind of a bummer, although I'm not that fond of bolding anything other than slugs.

Check out tools/name database.  Pretty sweet!

Being open source you could simply add it in yourself... Hell, I,bet, you could edit it in jave4.  

Yeah, I saw that. Like a quarter of a million names. Sweet!

I'm actually writing a quick short tonight just to see how it works for me and so far...

A++

Excellent tools, spellcheck, ect...

Man this feels like something I would have paid for had it not been free.

There are bold and italic's here -- however, they are handled kind of sloppy.  But with them being here already you can go into the system file -- find the settings for it and create a key command for them to be used.  I'm going to tool around with it tonight and see if I can't re-edit some of that and make something of it.

If I have any luck I'll post the means to do it here.

For now, if you want both bold and italic:

Go to

Script>
>Setting>
>Change>
Element>
>Dialogue

Then click the respected boxes... Then, after you write your dialogue, tick them off.

Hopefully just temporary.

Also of note, you all must change your fonts in the offset because they have it set to Courier pitch 10.

Go to

File
Settings
Change
Display

You da man Balt-

By the way...

I hope your Passover was nice.

Well spotted, Balt.  I'll be changing that font setting, and let us know what you come up with on the editing.

Hmm.  Just found something I'm not too fond of, but isn't a total killer.  Trelby's still the best I've come across along the line of free software.

I finished a script and went to save it as a pdf to send it to someone.  

Whenever you open that saved pdf, it won't open up to the title page.  It'll open up to wherever you left your cursor when you saved it from the Trelby file.

Luckily I checked it before I sent it, and imagine my surprise when it opened up to the final page of the script.

So make sure when you 'save it as' on your computer, the cursor on the Trelby file is at the beginning of the script.  I have to go to work and don't have time, now, but I'll see if there's a way to get the pdf to open up to the title page.

To stop opening on the current page, go to Script Settings. then go to the "PDF" section. From there unclick "Open PDF on current page". That should force your PDF file to open at the title page going forward.

Hey, cooky.  Thank you very much.  You saved me from wasting a good hour in the morning.  :-)

This might be a stupid question but I'm new here so I'm allowed a little ignorance:

If I were to switch to Trelby from CeltX, is it just a matter of copying and pasting my current projects over or would that present formatting issues?

As far as I know, yes it would cause problems - best bet to my knowledge is to export to txt, then import.

.. but I might just go check that out ...

Strangely - seemed to work best when exported from Trelby as an RTF, saved as a txt, then imported into Celtx - still minor errors here and then. Nothing serious.
