For upgraders from v 1.x

This section is a collection of brief but useful descriptions for using new features introduced in v2.0. Please see the How To... Section for a full range of topics.

Topics:

• Enter multiple letters in the same cell
• Enter non-letters or symbols in the puzzle
• Check if a puzzle has notepad contents

Note: Since this version allows digits to be entered as solutions, it is no longer possible to jump to a particular clue by typing in the clue number.

Enter multiple letters in the same cell:

To enter multiple letters in the current cell, click on Esc key on your keyboard (or select Insert->Multiple Letters from the Edit Menu). This will bring up a small edit window over that cell in which you can enter the letters (up to 8 characters). Press return/enter when you are done. If you want to cancel entering multiple letters, press Esc key to remove the multi-character edit window.

Enter non-letters or symbols in a cell:

You can enter @, #, $, %, &, +, ? as well as digits 0-9 using your keyboard. To enter more graphic symbols, use Shift+Esc keys on your keyboard (or select Insert->Symbol from the Edit Menu). This will bring up a symbol palette. Click on the symbol you wish to enter. You can leave the symbol palette open and continue.

Check if a puzzle has notepad contents

Check the area where the title/date of the puzzle is displayed (between the toolbar and the puzzle grid/prompt). If there is a note in the puzzle notepad, there will be a yellow icon displayed to the right of any puzzle title/date. Click on it to open the notepad. See picture below.
