FreeOffice: The SmartText function is not included in SoftMaker FreeOffice.
The SmartText function in Presentations can save you a lot of work: You can create SmartText entries for frequently used phrases and then insert them instantly in the text.
For example, create a SmartText entry called "sd" with the content "sales department". You can now insert this SmartText entry at any time. To do so, simply type "sd" in the text and then press the space bar, the Enter key↵ or a punctuation mark. "Sales department" immediately replaces "sd".
In this way, you can create your personal "computer steno" with Presentations and save a lot of time when typing.
In this section, you will learn about working with SmartText entries:
| New SmartText entries can be created in a dialog-box-controlled manner with the ribbon command Insert | group Text | SmartText or via the spell check. A name (for example, "sd") and the desired content must be specified (for example, "sales department") for each text module. |
| If the option Expand SmartText entries is enabled in the program settings, SmartText entries can be inserted very easily: To do so, type the name of the SmartText entry and then press the space bar, Enter key↵ or a punctuation mark. The name will be immediately replaced by the content of the SmartText entry. |
| Alternatively, entries can be inserted manually with the ribbon command Insert | group Text | SmartText. |
| Not only can you create new SmartText entries with the ribbon command Insert | group Text | SmartText, but you can also edit, rename or delete existing ones. |
