I don't know why it's there and have no strong feelings. I began to implement it because I broke the possibility to insert it directly with the last Paragraph redesign (and it's in the qt2 dialog too). But maybe someone can enlighten us; it would be nice if we could decide this before I keep on staring another couple of hours on Paragraph.C and friends (without any result until now). Jürgen. > Jug
