Working with Bookmarks and Cross-references
Use bookmarks in your document as you would use a bookmark for quick access to a specific page
in a book or a location on the World Wide Web.
You can also use bookmarks to insert “See also” cross-references in your document which Nisus
Writer Pro keeps current for you.
Set a Bookmark
1. Select the text you want to mark.
2. Choose the menu command Insert > Bookmarks > Add Bookmark or from the contextual
menu that appears when you press 6 or “right click” your mouse or “secondary click” your
trackpad.
Nisus Writer Pro automatically uses the selected text as the bookmark’s name.
When you add a bookmark automatically Nisus Writer Pro appends the word (Automatically) to
distinguish it those you set with text other than that selected. You can modify that appended
term in the Appearance preferences of Nisus Writer Pro as explained on page 378.
Set a bookmark as something other than selected text
1. Select the text you want to mark.
2. Choose the menu command Insert > Bookmarks > Add Bookmark As….
3. Enter the text you want to use in the sheet that appears.

!
Add Bookmark and Add Bookmark As… bookmarks differ in one significant way. You can
edit the bookmarked text of either.
• The “name” of an “automatic bookmark” changes as you edit it.
• The “name” of a “bookmark as bookmark” (what appears in the list of bookmarks in the
Navigator and in the Cross Reference dialog) does not change.
The text each of them represents in any cross-reference where it appears in the document
changes as you type.

You can also add a bookmark to selected text using two additional methods.
▶
Press 4 and choosing Add Bookmark or Add Bookmark As… from the contextual menu
that appears.

document window and choose Add Bookmark or Add Bookmark As… from the pop-up
menu that appears.

Bookmarks or Table of Contents. You can click that label to switch the display.
You can close the Navigator by choosing the menu command Gear > Hide Navigator at the bottom
of the Navigator pane.
