Re: Feature request: dark mode

I'm checking in again to ask if there are any plans for a dark mode. Judging by the low number of replies to this thread, I wonder if there is just no demand, in which case the developers are right to focus their attention elsewhere. But as for me, I'm sorry to say that if there's no progress on thi...

Re: Feature request: dark mode

I understand quite well that I will need more than 30 minutes to understand how NWP works :-) It certainly took longer than that for me to figure out Mellel. But I do think that my first 30 minutes with Mellel were more promising than my first 30 minutes with NWP. I tried to make it clear that I was...

Re: Feature request: dark mode

I'm not sure if I can give detailed examples, as I've only spent maybe thirty minutes trying to figure out Nisus Writer Pro. My impression is that the interface is more cluttered and less thoughtfully laid out than Mellel's. Although the dark mode is nice, the icons, palettes, and other interface el...

Re: Feature request: dark mode

I noticed recently that Nisus Writer Pro has a decent dark mode. Unfortunately it seems (at least in my brief testing) to be not as good in other ways as Mellel. Perhaps something to try out for now, at least. I am still very much hoping that Mellel will introduce a dark mode.

Re: Feature request: dark mode

Thanks for your comment, mathefff. It is great to see that someone else here agrees that this feature would be useful! I thought I was alone :( A few additional thoughts. Scrivener has done a beautiful job with their dark mode and so have plenty of the "minimalist text editors". But these ...

Feature request: dark mode

Hello. I'm using Mellel 4.2.9 with macOS Catalina. Most of my favorite apps have implemented a "dark mode" in recent years. Mellel is one of the few holdouts. I wonder if you are considering adding this feature. I know you'd make it look beautiful. Thanks.

Re: Exceedingly wide sidebar... Why?

I want to add my agreement: it would be so great if the minimum width of the sidebar could be narrower. I also agree with the suggestion to allow hiding the Story and Index tabs. These are cool features, but I don't see myself ever using them for the kind of writing I do. Perhaps there is room in th...
