Agreed - the exact key-combination for me is a secondary to the fact of being able to do so.nicka wrote:Better to keep triple-click for paragraph selection, since it is a standard, and find another combination for sentences. Option-double-click?

Weird. Have no other mac to test, but I only have the whole paragraph whenever I triple-click (mouse or trackpad). Never ever the line (nor even the sentence). Will try to check on another one. My mistake. I’ve tested (and used) triple clicking on single lines (headlines, browser URL bar) instead o...

I think that Mellel should keep the current behavior as it’s standard among every (almost every) OS X application. If you click into the border and drag your mouse down, the text will be selected already. If you like to select a whole line, you could do this with a triple-click in either the line o...

That's why I love DEVONthink. :) I would agree, but that's also where it's first problem comes into play: if you don't preprocess your documents in DT, DT can't see them (well, it still can't see Mellel files either). Spotlight can, and with Finder Comments, smart folders and spotlight's metalangua...

I'm a fan of OmniOutliner; but I've tried and tried to use DT as well. I wouldn't mind if DT would be able to open Mellel files on the fly, directly, as it does with RTF. I found DT to be a very good programme, but it doesn't fit my academic needs, I found. Integrating information from a website? Fi...

I'll add a bit of mine. I understand the problems with language as character style, and perhaps also the added complexity of a level in between paragraph and character. I have no clue about how this is coded now in Mellel, but it seems to me that one could perhaps try another strategy, instead of us...

Re: List style question
That's utterly ridiculous. This is what really annoys me about Mellel - I love the programme but I hate its limitations. I should be able to set a list style with one-click. Once I've saved the style I can do it with one click in Word. It takes three clicks in Mellel. And I have to do that every ti...

Re: List style question
Sorry if I'm being dense, but I can't see how to save a list style as a paragraph style. In other words, I have a certain list style saved in the 'list' palette, but I want to be able to click on a paragraph style and have that list style applied. At the moment it applies the paragraph formatting b...

I second this request as well, but would like to enhance it. The spell-check is a must have, but I would also prefer a language-setting that incorporates both spelling and hyphenation (and typographers quotes). This would probably require taking a language setting into the Preferences pane: a) allow...
