Linkback Support

Post by whenders0n »

Are there any plans to add linkback support? Are there other users who would really like to see this? I for one would really love to be able to double click equations in my math thesis to edit them....

Thanks,
william

The first thing that occurred to me when I read about linkback some time ago is that it could be a great way to have "live" bibliographic support. Would it actually work?

I'm very anxious to see the updates with bibliographic management, it has been hyped up a little by the Redlers and Jon at BE, but I don't think LinkBack has anything to do with it.

I don't think that there are concrete plans to implement linkback support. But I also think this would be great.

For equation I think there is one application which interoperates with Mellel nicely. But while I don't have any use for equations, I can't tell you which application this is.

I would like to see it, to avoid incorporating huge illustrations into a document. I don't know if this is really possible with LinkBack, however.

I think it's time to bring back this question to the table once again. The Linkback support should be very useful for many. It's a great way for example to be able to use graphics or charts created in external application, directly within Mellel. I'm using both OmniGraffle Pro and OmniGraphSketcher, and it would be very useful and time saving to be able to use graphics between Mellel and Omni… without having to copy and paste.

Any plans to implement Backlink in the next version of Mellel?
