Format toolbar

• Format toolbar - show the Format toolbar. The button features a context menu, right-click it to open the menu, with the the following options:
  • Remove formatting (Shift+Ctrl+1) - remove HTML tags from the selected text. Note that this does not make the text formatless. Tags preceding the selection may still take effect
  • Clean lead HTML - remove leading HTML formatting tags
  • Convert to plain text (Shift+Ctrl+F12) - convert formatted text in HTML and RTF text components into plain text. Plain text takes much less space than formatted text
  • Filter HTML code (F6) - filter HTML texts for easier handling by SuperMemo. This is very helpful in reducing the number of errors displayed by Internet Explorer when processing tables and rich multimedia files in incremental reading.
  • UPPERCASE - convert the selected text to upper case (e.g. Pygmy Chimpanzee to PYGMY CHIMPANZEE, pygmy chimpanzee to PYGMY CHIMPANZEE, etc.)
  • lowercase - convert the selection to lower case (e.g. DEPECHE MODE to depeche mode, Depeche Mode to depeche mode, etc.)
  • Sentence case - convert the selected text to lower case with the first letter capital (e.g. PLATYHELMINTHES to Platyhelminthes). This option is often used to convert uppercase titles and proper names.
  • Convert to metric units - convert imperial units to metric units. For example, to convert stones and pounds to kilograms or Fahrenheit to Centigrade, select the relevant measure in the processed text and choose the relevant metric conversion option from the dialog box. You can also convert related unit pairs. For example, "5 foot 7 inch" written as "5:7" can be convert to 1.702 (meters) or "10 stone 3 pound" written as "10:3" can be converted to 64.864 (kilograms). Additionally, SuperMemo allows you to convert time to speed for a given distance.
  • Phonetic transcription - replace texts with their phonetic transcription when the mouse is hovered over the component (applies to text, RTF, and spell-pad components only)
  • Translate texts - translate texts when the mouse is moved over the component (applies to text, RTF, and spell-pad components only)
