Since there seems to be some FullWrite users watching... I bought FW1.0 when it came out and upgraded to 1.1. I then found a bug that the people at Ashton-Tate confirmed that I simply could not live with. I'm wondering if anyone else out there ran into it as well. It's called "Creeping Sidebars" in Ashton-Tate lingo. In other words, for EVERY mouse click or EVERY key stroke, certain "infected" sidebars will actually MOVE (yes, by themselves) ONE pixel down the page. After long periods of typing I actually had sidebars sitting at the bottom of my pages, when they were originally placed in the middle!! Ashton-Tate's solution/suggestion: COPY and PASTE your creeping sidebars back to there original positions before printing...What...WHAT!!!! You go through 50 pages and find creeping sidebars, I'm switching to Word... Anyway, just curious if anyone else has seen this and found a more suitable fix. As always, these are only my opinions...
