Re: Slow writing under El Capitan

I assume it is a bug or some sort of optimization issue. I sent an email to RedleX but I have not heard back. Hopefully we'll hear something soon, either in the form of an update or at least an explanation/ETA on the fix. The lag and general choppiness is pretty distracting.

Re: Slow writing under El Capitan

I am still seeing this and I wonder if there is a cure. Has anyone found a solution? Writing is still slow and scrolling is less than smooth--especially when viewing two-up.

1. Most urgent: 3, 19, 20 2. Second Choice: 7, 1, 15 3. Third Choice: 28, 30 I would like to also throw another item into the mix: a freshened interface. As of 2.5, one has the option of Aqua or 'Brushed Metal' -- neither of which match the rest of Leopard's interface. Granted, this is a minor issue...

Re: Double-page view

I have been in contact with the developers concerning this feature and they claimed that it was indeed on the list of things to implement. Like others, this feature is very important to me and the way I work. I was really hoping to see it in 2.5, but perhaps it was just too much to implement right n...

Well, I can say that after my initial experiences with Pages 3.0 (the program I use for the two-up view) it will not be doing any heavy lifting in my dissertation. Three crashes in five minutes, including screwing my Finder, that's simply unacceptable. Even if they fix the bugs, it doesn't look as t...

I understand that this must be a rather old request, given the 'evergreen' comments, but I am new to Mellel and don't know what was said previously. I sent the developers an email asking about the prospects for a 'two-up' view but haven't heard back yet. If this is a common request, what stands in t...
