Now that I'm here: what's the place for forum software questions. Please migrate these to a suitable place:
1. The drop-down lists at the top are way too sticky: they drop down when you incidentally move the mouse over and stay down until you click somewhere in the top bar. Symmetric behavious would be for them to roll up when the mouse leaves again.
2. I still have that symbols (from the ##\Sigma## button) go to the top left of the editing window instead of where the cursor was. On several of my many computers the smileys go there too. Must be some setting on the computer ? But how to find & fix that ?
3. Some settings in my computer capitalize normal words like Always, Wikipedia and several more. Regional settings ? Other ideosyncracies ?
And where do I go to get rid of the red wiggly lines under about half the words ?
4. Nowadays display math gets centered. The TeX flavour used for PF doesn't recognize \hfil or \hskip. What's the incantation to do things like left adjusment, right adjustment. And, while at it, I seem to remember useful goodies like \eqalign . In short: where to find what works and what doesn't. Trial and error is so 22nd century; gimme a user manual any time
[edit] post was beamed here by some good spirit. My first thread !
