Linked Clues #2

Is there a way to show linked clues in Exolve?

viresh-ratnakar commented 5 years ago

Yes, you can put the clue numbers of the "children" after the parent, comma separated.

12, 14, 20 A long linked clue (4, 5, 6) 14 See 12 20 See 12

If a child clue has a different direction than the parent, you can write it explicitly:

12, 15d A clue with mixed directions (5,7)

But please use the latest version as I added this feature after the initial release

For completeness: :-)

If a child clue, say 15, has a different direction, but that's the only direction for 15 (ie, only one of 15a/15d exists), then the direction will get inferred automatically --specifying it explicitly is optional)

Somsram commented 5 years ago

Oh Ok. thanks. Will check it out. Otherwise the software works fabulously and I am loving it :)

I think once you are fine with it, we can probably make a blogpost in one across featuring it so that more people can get to know about it.

Best regards

The highlighted clue that appears on top doesn’t show the linking in enum

For eg - a clue which shows up as 30,31 in the clue area Shows up only as 30A in the highlighted area

I had chosen to show it like this (as the squares of 31 do get highlighted, which I thought was enough). However, I agree, it's more natural to show the child indices too. I've made the change, you can grab it from the latest version.
