Run-in titles
Hi, When writing synopsis for the movie, I usually use this kind of formatting: Ulysses and Minnie. Then Ulysses reaches Topolinia, and meets Minnie. This is even more common with technical documents: Open. This command lets you open an existing document. As seen in another thread, this can easily b...

I have not used the feature yet Use it! Even if you do not need it. It's fantastic (and going better)! I use it everyday. For example, when I add or change something in a document I am discussing with others, I can mark the new or changed text, so that they can immediately jump there. It is like a ...

I too use Mellel on a Pismo G3/400 with 512MB of RAM and Tiger 10.4.9 running on it. Frankly, I find Mellel rather snappy, when compared to other applications running on the same machine. I can write with it without feeling it is not following me. To be true, it's my preferred writing machine. I can...

Currently, I work this way. First, I create, print and share a draft with markers. Each subsequent revision does contain markers. Finally, when I'm ready to share the finished text, I remove - or convert to ordinary text - all markers, so printing with or without them actived doen't make difference....

Nicka, you are perfectly right. Auto-titles can be followed by ordinary text right now. I wonder why I missed this feature before. Maybe it's because when you transform some text into an auto-title, the whole paragraph takes the corresponding text style. It can be manually changed later, but this co...

I suggest you save your finished thesis in RTF format, and open it with Word or NeoOffice for indexing. I don't like the way they manage indexing (for a whole thesis, you will probably go insane), but they do it. Later, maybe you can go the opposite way, and re-open your work in Mellel, when indexin...

Saving the Print Markers status
Hi, I wonder what is the general consensus about saving the Print Markers status. I would prefer that this Print dialog option was saved each time you change its status. I think this is a general, not a momentary preference. If I want to print markers now, I would probably want to print them the nex...

Changing more Auto-title tags at the same time
Hi, I would like to be able to select more that one tag (by Cmd+click and/or dragging) in the Edit Auto-title dialog box, and change the format of more tags at the same time. I do this very often when programming new Auto-title formats, and applying the same changes to several tags one at a time see...
