Thanks for your suggestions.
BME _may_ get the functionality you requested. (No promises yet, depends on
time constraints.)
Display utilities: if you had WB 3.0 you could use Multiview which displays
bitmaps, text, etc… Works great. CBM has one called WDisplay to display
pictures, but it's only available with a program that includes it with their
AmigaGuide license. We may or may not include it with PageStream 3.0. (Depends
on whether or not we need it.)
Bitmap contrast control: in PgS 3.0.
Better Cursor control in pgs: yes.
Multiple justification on one line: probably not, but I'll ask.
Outdents: all you would do in 3.0 to make that line up properly is set the
first tab to the same amount as your outdent value. With numerically set tabs,
this is easy to do.
Indent/Outdent in 2.2: it doesn't work logically. You have to highlight the
text, choose indent or outdent, then choose set indent/outdent. It does work,
however.
Corrupted file due to bad disk: nope, you cannot fix a broken document. There
is no way for you, or even us, to fix it. The new format in 3.0 will be better
for this if you understand IFF formats, but it would still be a nightmare to
consider fixing. It's not as easy as putting up a requester saying an object on
page 3 won't load, but yes, 3.0 shouldn't crash on a bad file. (I've never seen
2.2 do that either, so you must be lucky. 😉
