Re: 3.0 Wish List

Hi Janet, Thanks again for the ideas. Unfortunately using two columns like this still doesn't solve the footnote issue - i.e., the footnotes are sequential from R1, R2, R3 […] L1, L2, L3 rather than R1-L1, R2-L2, R3-L3.

Re: 3.0 Wish List

Hi Janet, Well that's creative attempt! Unfortunately I don't think it will work - on the one hand, I still need to enter a line feed to force justification before the column break, so it's the same problem of having a blank line following each line ; secondly, when I do a column break in the second...

Re: Wishlist 2008

My number one feature would be Indic script support, even if it is just rudimentary. At the moment, my dissertation is split between Mellel (for chapters using Arabic and Persian sources) and NeoOffice (for chapters with Sanskrit and Gujarati sources), but life would be so much easier if I could do ...
