Re: over-writing letters

MathMagic have issued a new version (6.1) which is still not unicode compatible. They do, however, answer me that 'we have a plan to support UNICODE, the schedule is not fixed yet. (roughly Oct. 2009 ~ Jun. 2010)'
So, patience.

Re: Wishlist for version 2.7

This was on my wish-list for all previous versions, so I repeat it here:
  • Export of style names to Word or rtf documents
    Import of style names from Word or rtf documents
    Foot-notes set to appear at bottom of page should not appear at the end of the section, but - at the bottom of the page.

Re: Mellel 2.6.1

There must have been a hickup on the registration-server. The relevant reactions came much later and it all seems in order now.

Re: Mellel 2.6.1

I downloaded the update and installed it. Stupidly I let it replace my current version and was then told I needed to pay for the upgrade. Sure. But I cannot get to pay. Mellel quits 'unexpectedly' every time I click on 'buy update' and now I am stuck with a version that does not function fully. Plea...

Re: over-writing letters

Thanks. I have downloaded LaTexIt and, as you say, it is indeed unicode compatible and will write accentuated Greek. I don't yet see how I can choose the font. I must take the time (some other time) to find out how it works, which is not immediately obvious. Too many gadgets that 'seem to be absent ...

Re: over-writing letters

The interest in this subject has not been overwhelming, but thanks to Januss, although his solutions were not useable. The solution is in MathMagic, as written in the guide (yes I have read it). Make your superimposed letter in MathMagic (costs about €50), make a fair amount of massage to make it di...

over-writing letters

How does one write letters over one another? I don’t mean suprascript, nor 'overwriting' in the sense it is used in the guide, but really writing one over the other, occupying the same vertical space, but one of them lifted above the other. This is often found in Greek papyrus-manuscripts that I hav...

Re: Wishlist for version 2.6

Here is my number 1.1.A URGENT wish for Mellel 2.6: Because of all the poor people who have not yet adopted Mellel - they may even still use Windows or worse - you often have to import texts through RTF. In doing so, one is most often faced with a magma of styles all called 'par. style.+'. Since peo...

Re: spotlight

I cannot reproduce this problem. I get perfect spotlight on files written in Mellel.

Re: BUG: Cannot paste into tables

I cannot reproduce the problem, but I think it may be related to character styles. In certain cases, when importing text in a font you do not have, you get blanks, e.g. in TimesNR if you want it to write accentuated Greek. Sometimes, not always. Are you working in a special alphabet? I think it may ...

footnotes at bottom of page

I am new to the forum, but have been using Mellel with pleasure for 5 years. Perhaps my problem has already been treated somewhere, but I have not found it: Footnotes at the bottom of the page normally work well, but if the page contains a section-break, the notes appear at the end of the section, n...
