Re: Change citations to before or after punctuation

jvictorcabral, johseb et al, I also agree with Johseb that F&R misses the option to include Citations; then Icelander's solution would work without workarounds. This isn't quite correct. I have created a new FindSet where the citation objects are used in F&R. This time, after jvictorcabral's...

Re: Change citations to before or after punctuation

Hi Johsep, jvictorcabral, the original poster, wrote: I have: ;{Kenyon and Tseng, 1989, #117507} I want: {Kenyon and Tseng, 1989, #117507}; so obviously his citations are text and not citation objects, unless he erroneously typed the Citation delimiters {} and thus threw us off the track. I call upo...

Re: Change citations to before or after punctuation

Hi Johseb, Problem is, using Bookends as reference manager you'll have all your citations as Mellel citation objects (blue background, no delimiters) and I can't seem to be able to use the F&R approach. You can change citation objects with the blue background to text, then do the F&R, and th...

Re: two independent columns of text

I want this functionality both for parallel translation passges and for comparing two passages from different sources in the same language. […] Could you recomment other software that will do this (other than Word)? Check out Nisus Writer Pro. It can do both! Regarding the columns, in Nisus go to V...

All you need to do is to import it. ...

Yes, don't worry. I'll prepare a FindSet for you with all the necessary elements.
Do you know how to import a FindSet?

OK, I now understand. You can do this for the whole document with one mouse click. Here is a screenshot which shows the elements you must enter into the Find & Replace boxes: https://www.mediafire.com/view/3vzn7rt2pzuo8h0/Screen_Shot_2023-07-22_at_19.07.59.png/file Enter the elements and then cl...

Re: Change citations to before or after punctuation

Hi,
I'm afraid I don't understand the question. Are you talking about the reference symbols in the body text?
Can you give us some examples?

Re: Chicago of Manual of Style template?

Hello Amontillado, IEEE style, included with Mellel, is said to be based on Chicago. Just curious. Where did you hear that? I can't detect any similarities between IEEE and Chicago :–) The former is used in engineering, computer science, and information technology; the latter in the humanities. In I...

Yes. I have one.
It contains text, the Chicago Style document guidelines and general principles for formatting a paper and cite sources in this style.

Re: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A shorter route would be to choose File > Import > OPML and choose the opml file. Shorter perhaps, but it's a cul-de-sac, a route leading nowhere, at least for me. This is what I get when I import OPML: A TestLorem ipsum Nunc at velitNulla mauris odio Nullam porta PellentesqueVestibulumPraesent sag...

Yes.

Another walk-around is to
1. open it with OmniOutliner
2. Export as RTF from OmniOutliner and then
3. open in Mellel

Re: Search for long phrases

Congratulation! I think. you have found the solution. If I understand this search logic correctly, then we search for a dot 300 times, but since we have enabled the option "Negated" dots are ignored 300 times. Does that make sense? The following setting seems to work too, albeit with a min...
