I'm an infrequent user of Across, and have somehow hit a key that flipped the "insert" mode in the editing panel into "overtype." I can't figure out how to put it back! Any help would be appreciated!

I finally figured it out. It's the "insert" key on the keyboard (!), having nothing to do with Across per se. (I was used to Word, where there's a toggle at the bottom of the screen.)

I'll leave this here in case some numbskull (like me) ever needs to find it.
