Transcribing Options

[Alex23037142fg4s]

Is there any way to remove all the punctuations that the auto transcribe has? If yes, how? Thank you!

Not in PR.

I would export as text file, then edit in Notepad++ or similar and use Regex search/replace to remove all punctuation. I have not done it, and don't know what the specific replace code would be.

You could do the Notepad replace and just replace one punctuation at the time without knowing any special code.

Hi Stan,

you can also use Regular Expressions in the text search window by using the (undocumented/hidden) expression:

\\R{yourregexhere}

Use at your own risk! There might be more official support for this in the future.

If you go to the TEXT panel then CAPTIONS, there is a search bar for the punctuation you want to remove. Replace it with a space. This will result in a double space. So go back to the search bar and look for double spaces. Replace it with a single space. Just forgived this out and it works perfectly right in Abode. 😩 finally

OMG it worked! Thanks so much! This feature has been there for so long I think. But it's not obvious because the "replace" button only appears when you use the search bar.

I feel like this would be an easy feature to add and would save me literal hours a week
