Sort is greyed out/disabled

Hi,

I'm new to TextPad, but I searched a lot and couldn't solve my problem.

The "Sort" functionality is always greyed out (I tried the latest version and also TextPad 4.7.3). I found a few posts that mentioned word wrap, block select or even changing the font to solve this. I think I have tried all of this in every combination but I still have "Sort" greyed out.

Is there anything I can do? I want to be able to remove duplicates. I would like to purchase TextPad, but without this option I don't know if it fits my needs.

Thanks in advance.

Are the documents you are trying to sort "read only"? - just a thought.

No, that's not it - thanks though.

You need to have a minimum of two terminated lines in order to enable the Sort function. Could it be that?

Sort is also disabled if you have a text selection within one single line.
