Re: Images vanished

I have lost years of material. That doesn't need to be the case if you have a sound backup strategy. Why don't you start up from an external bootable disk with an earlier system version on it? If you do that you will see that you have lost nothing. And while running the machine from the external di...

Re: Images vanished

How is it going, Boban?
Please keep us informed if there is any update. Don't vanish too… like the images!

Re: Images vanished

Hello Boban, The EPS file you uploaded is working fine here. 1. Log into your computer with another User Account. If you don't have an other User Account already, then create one. You do that in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Click on the lock to make changes, and then create a new accoun...

Re: Reference format in auto-title styles

Where is that Reference Format used? I think it's used if, and only if you want the cross-reference to have another format than the surrounding text, for example in case you want it to stand out. On the first screenshot the Auto-title Title has the same format as the surrounding text, whereas the A...

Re: Caption formatting issues

Hi Amontillado, There is some misunderstanding going on here. Let me summarize. The discussion was about *two* issues: 1) The bug Thomas Green found and I confirmed. 2) The so called "missing" parent-elements Allow me to quote myself: "Of all the Mellel templates only "Book–Techn...

Yes, I know how to make Nisus do that. :–)

I uploaded a template for you with instructions and the necessary styles.
You'll find the download link in a private message I sent to you.

Cheers

Re: Shading background (not just lines of text)

I don't see any "nice-looking fully shaded backdrop" in the screenshot you provided. You should upload another screenshot where a shaded backdrop (from MS Word) can be seen. Which one do you want? This one? https://i.postimg.cc/NMj3XQ8r/1.png Or this one? https://i.postimg.cc/6qN10wn0/2.png

Re: Caption formatting issues

It would be interesting to look at anything in a template that blocked possibilities. That has already been done, and the culprit has already been identified. The answer regarding the missing parent-element is: The Figure Caption (which is a Caption Stream) needs to be INSIDE the Structure Stream.
