Use the Input Settings pane of the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit menu) to
customize scrolling and other "on-the-fly" actions.
Use the Scrolling area to specify how quickly you can scroll through layouts and how
layouts update on screen. (Windows only)Check Live Scroll to update the layout view as
you drag the scroll boxes in layout window scroll bars. To turn Live Scroll on and off
while you are scrolling, press Option/Alt as you drag a scroll box.
Use the Format drop-down menu and the Smart Quotes check box to choose a style for
converting and entering quotation marks. To specify the default characters to be used with
the Smart Quotes feature and with the Convert Quotes option in the Import dialog box
(File > Import), choose an option from the Quotes drop-down menu. Check Smart Quotes
to force the application to automatically replace foot and inch marks (' and ") with the
chosen quotation marks as you type.
Hyphens and commas are the default separators for indicating sequential and
non-sequential ranges in the Pages field of the Print dialog box for a Print layout. If you
specified commas or hyphens as part of page numbers in the Section dialog box (Page
menu), you need to change the default separators here. For example, if your page numbers
are "A1, A2," then you cannot specify ranges in the Pages field using hyphens. To edit
the separators, enter new characters in the Sequential and Nonsequential fields.
