Ok, I've looked at the source code ... seems the no-commas directive removes "commas" in every widget except the check-group and hcheck-group widgets.  I must have left those alone for a reason!  Let's see your template and I can decide whether to remove the commas from those widgets or if there is some other approach we can take.

This is a really big template .. I think I would break it up into two smaller templates and link them using a linked text macro.

What's wrong with this, commas and all??

group-box -1x-1 "" data [
slabel "The symptoms are exacerbated by: " return
 
hcheck-group 70x40 "" data [

"sitting" none
"standing"  none
"ambulation"  none

"extending from a flexed position" none

Note, the check-group widget inserts text vertically into your clinical note, but the hcheck-group inserts them "h"orizontally.

Still would like to get rid of the commas.   If you think that was a long template you should see my medium-length examples!

 any consideration for support of older, resolution-challenged TPCs ?

---

What is the max resolution of your TPC?

Not sure why you want rid of the commas for ... as if you have a list of exacerbating factors, you need some type of separator.

It would be better for you to break up your templates into parts and load them separately.

The M series Motions max @ 1024x768.

 

 Next question:

 I'm trying to configure PS templates for faxing letters to MDs. I thought I saw a way to Change "yours Sincerely" to something else. Am I mistaken ?

I have changed my JPG  logo for letterhead to eps but am still having difficulty placing cf properly.   What size in Pixels does the "I'm The Doc" translate to in the default letter?

---

So is there no command to delete commas?

Beta-32 works with this rez.

See Settings/User/Letters/Closing - you'll need to max your screen to see it ... it may be hidden, or u need to scroll

Don't understand. Note that what previews on screen for eps is not what prints out.

instead of using a large checkgroup, you can use a table instead like this ( see also the assessment template )

 

 group-box 75x56 ""  data [

slabel "The patient presents for" return

table 70x40 "Presents with" options [ multi "reason" left .99  ] data [
 "evaluation of "
 "recheck"
 "management of"
 "review of radiographic data ordered at the previous visit." ]
]

This is a multi-select table, use the control key to help select more than one item.

this is good!

 What is the: " left .99 " command ?

---

It means to align the columns on the left and to use 99% of the space availale.

Still getting a comma @ the end.
