Managing Files

Managing… Saving and Opening Your Files

Display and sort files managed by the Document Manager

Once you have saved, moved and/or added your files to the Document Manager, you can display,
sort and group them to make your files easier to find, open and edit. In addition to the categories
you can sort by, listed in the section “Display the Document Manager” beginning on page 57, the
Document Manager lists a set of default groups in its left pane, as illustrated in Figure 56.

All Managed Files
This refers to any file in any of the Document Manager sub-groups, whether they are resident in
the folder designated as the Document Manager folder or if they only have aliases to those files.
This group acts as a file sponge. It includes:

All files physically residing in the Document Manager folder.

Any file that has been saved to the Document Manager folder, even if it has been moved
somewhere else in the meantime.

All files in non-special groups. Special groups are the built-in groups like “Currently Open”,
so non-special groups are those custom or folder-backed groups you may have added, for
example: “Current Projects”.

Currently Open
As it implies, this lists any and all files opened by Nisus Writer Pro, regardless of where the file
might be stored on disk.

Recently Opened
As with Currently Open, this lists any and all files opened by Nisus Writer Pro, regardless of
where the file might be stored on disk. The number of files listed here is determined by the
number you set in the General preferences of Nisus Writer Pro: Keep x documents in Open
Recent menu
.

Recently Saved
Once again, as with Currently Open and Recently Opened, Recently Saved lists and and all
files saved by Nisus Writer Pro regardless of where the file might be stored on local or external
hard drives, nor does it matter whether the file was saved as a Nisus Writer Pro .rtf file or in
some other proprietary format. The number of files listed here is determined by the number you
set in the General preferences of Nisus Writer Pro: Keep x documents in Open Recent menu.

Style Library
Lists all the files you have saved to the Style Library making any styles in them available to use
in other documents. The Style Library is explained in detail in the section “Maintain a Style
Library”
beginning on page 107.
