Hi all--I'd just like to say that two of the things I've come to value most about Mellel are its speed and its stability. Well--third thing--I also admire its comparative simplicity, once one understands a few of its operating concepts. In the all-too-common rush to have new releases, upgrades, add...

Jim, I didn't think asking that we be careful about how things were said was "off topic," certainly not for those in the community who might have been offended. It would have mattered to you had you been, I'm sure. In response to your query, only the Redlers can say when Mellel will be de...

BTW WTF is the "near future"? A year, a month, a week?

C'mon, let's keep on topic. This is very important to me. If something doesn't happen soon I will be switching to Nisus, even though I don't want to.

I will not be caught with my "shorts down" again.

When I originally posted this, I wasn't so much concerned about new features, I can live with the features already present, I would simply like to know if there will be someone around to keep the program compatible with future OS updates. That was my problem with MindWrite. It was seen again with th...

I might not be the greatest expert with Mellel but, for my experience, there is no way to preserve the list levels. I'm not sure either if we may expect that it could be compatible with another software one day as Redlers do things their way (it gives us a great tool but there are some caveats, as ...

I don't know if speculation is allowed on this board so I will phrase this in the form of a hypothetical question. First of all I have used Mellel for about a year, I think, and I love it to death. On the other hand I used to use a program called "MindWrite" and loved it also. When they we...

The problem seems to have been with Bookends (although they told me it was with Mellel). Their latest release seems to have fixed it.

The bibliography works fine, it's the footnoted citations that don't.

C'mon, doesn't anyone cite journal articles? All I need is a workaround.

I can confirm that effect. To be a little more precise, here in my document the italicisation of the book chapter moves three characters to the right and thus affects the data that follows and that should not be italicized. Yes, mine is sometimes moving four characters to the right and sometimes tw...

Just noticed that the same thing is happening with book citations

E.g. (the Wo in Word is not italicized)

Formatting of journal articles citations is not getting to Mellel correctly. Note: I sent the problem to sonnysoftware support and was told it is a problem in Mellel. Anyone else having this problem or have I done something wrong? I have Mellel Preferences set to not change formatted text from bibli...

THANK YOU!!

And pardon my ignorance

I can find the paragraphs without any problem – it's the replacing them with nothing part where I get confused. (and I am easily confused)
