Now, you are offered some control over this process by choosing a scroll speed that is either ‘low’, ‘med’ or ‘high’ (med is the default). How many times has this happened to you: you start selecting a section, move down beyond the visible part of the screen, and the page seems to gallop ahead and you’ve highlighted much more than you wanted to. More welcomed is the ability to alter the speed of the scroll as you highlight text. Although welcome, it’s a puzzling addition since the version of WordPerfect we used, on Windows 10, already did this automatically as we typed, although it could be useful when working on imported documents.Ĭontrol how fast your document scrolls past you (Image credit: Corel) For X9, Corel have introduced a new option, ‘Sentence case’, which adds a capital as needed depending on the sentence structure (ie, a capital is added after a full stop, or an ‘i’ is changed to an ‘I’). For instance all highlighted text can be turned to lowercase, uppercase, or making the first letter of every word start with a capital. There’s a Convert menu that allows you to alter text based on certain parameters. From experience, we do agree that having the Reveal Code section different from the main page makes it much easier to distinguish between the two.īulk text formatting is something WordPerfect is pretty good at. In order to make that section more welcoming, you have the ability to format the font, colour and background to suit your preference. From there, it’s an easy matter to fix potentially glitchy formatting errors. When activated, you can see all the formatting currently present within your document.

When it comes to checking errors in formatting, WordPerfect has a pretty big ace up its sleeve with its Reveal Code feature.
