Re: Large amounts of white space

I'm pretty sure this is an issue of either "Keep with next" or "keep lines together", Michael contacted us via support and sent the document so I was able to confirm. Here's the standard explanation for this (I'll add this to the FAQ soon): It looks like the issue here is related...

Re: Search for long phrases

Here's how you can do this I'm afraid this doesn't solve the problem. The original poster only wants to find sentences which contain 300 characters or more. Sentences containing less characters should not be found. In theory, search criteria, like the following, seem to be the way to go: "Any ...

Re: Search for long phrases

Here's how you can do this 1. Enter the sentence terminators (period, question mark etc) to the find field, separated by an "or" element (choose "OR" in the little triangle menu) 2. Select the terminators and group them (choose "Group" from the triangle menu) 3. Place t...

New (old) Website

As you may have noticed, we changed the Mellel website a couple of weeks ago. In terms of the design and content the change may look subtle but under the hood the change is quite radical as we switched out of wordpress into another platform. The site is supposed to solve all sorts of issues we had w...

Re: Mixing Hebrew, French and signs of ponctuation

Hi Sara, First, the direction breaking space here is redundant. The problem with this layout is that geresh after the het is typed as an apostroph or single quote character and this character has a natural direction, this means that it takes the direction of the text around it. When you put a netura...

Re: mac hebrew keyboard, metheg and maqqeph

As I wrote, I believe it is not there on the keyboard. You'll have to use the Character Viewer.
You can watch a guide on how to use the Character Viewer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c5f_4XgPp8

Re: mac hebrew keyboard, metheg and maqqeph

AFAIK there is no way to insert meteg using the Hebrew keyboard layout, you'll need to use the Character Viewer for that.
Regarding Maqaf you can insert it using option+shift+\ (forward slash)

Re: Feature request: split view

Split view is complex but it does look like something that is very highly requested. This feature is 100% sure to appear in Mellel, question is when, we'll consider making that soon.

Re: help with black vertical line

An addition to the helpful reply of Amontillado, you can also pause track changes. Click the pause button in the track changes bar and changes you make will not be tracked. So if you wish to insert a TOC without having to accept or reject all changes (as you would if you turned off track changes) yo...
