Re: Blanking out on how to do this . . .

Thank you for that. I will try that and see. The valley is lovely in winter and fall, not so much in Summer (which is one half of the year).

Re: Blanking out on how to do this . . .

I agree. I have stumbled into using page style breaks to get the mentions in the header to stay in the part of the book I want them to stay in. However, it forced me to set the first page number of the Bibliography manually, which I did not find to be ideal. Also, in my case using the page style bre...

Blanking out on how to do this . . .

I am sorry to bother the forum with this, because I'm sure it's in the manual somewhere, but I cannot remember where, nor have I been able to find it. I need to make it so that the auto title mention that is running through the document in the header doesn't start until chapter 1, and doesn't run th...

Quotation marks (English)

A large part of a current document was done with either the old Dragon for Mac (ver. 5 and 6) or Apple dictation/voice control. This resulted in a quite a few quotation marks that were not converted to typographer's quotation marks. For some reason I am having no luck in constructing a search and re...

Voice Control in Catalina

Has anybody tried to use voice control with Mellel. Before they discontinued dragon I used it with great success with the Mellel. So far, I have been unable to get voice control in Catalina to type anything into Mellel at all. Has anybody had any better luck?

Re: Secondary font question

I will attach an image of the secondary font setup. Well I was going to but could not get the image into the post. But as far as I can tell, my character style is according to what you are saying. I will have to figure out how to post a picture. Thank for your willingness to help!

Re: Footnote Continuation Separator - longer line

the footnote continuation separator is used when a footnote is too long to fit on the page and must be continued on the following page. Usually, this is a longer line which signals readers that there is something different about these notes. In Mellel, all lines are the same length. Have I overlook...

Re: Secondary font question

I need to put quite a few quotations in Greek in the footnotes of my document. The document itself is written in English. I am trying to set up the secondary font so that it will cover that and invoke the Doulos SIL font when I am copying the Greek text from the document in which I have compiled th...

Copy paragraph style to a different style set

When I drag a paragraph style over to a different style said I get a green +, which seems to indicate it should copy, but it does not. Is it possible to copy a paragraph style from one style said to another or do you have to re-created from scratch? Allow me to elaborate. I wanted to move a certain ...

Mellel and Dragon

I love your word processor for my academic writing chores. The integration of Bookends is extremely helpful. As are many of the other features like auto titles etc. This is more of a request. I like to do my writing in your program, particularly after I have sketched out the basics in Scrivener. The...

The Holiday announcement

In some of the version of the announcement, it reminds you that if you "upgrade" now, 4.0 will be free. Question: how do we know if you qualify for 4.0 free or if we should go ahead and "upgrade" now?
