When I try to open the TU, it only takes over the text "Heater" and not the numbers. In Word I usually solved this by deleting the dot and then reopening the entire text, but now I can't do this, as I can't edit text outside the TU. Is there anything I can do, or was the English text like this, because the English translator couldn't solve the problem either? (I have to deliver TTX files, so I can't do that afterwards).
Thanks for any hints. ▲ Collapse
