Basic things like styles, undo, formatting implmementations etc. Mellel just is not on the same level as Word, and I would say that anyone looking to build their own wordprocessor should at least use Microsoft Word as setting a certain standard of what should be. I tried also Scrivener and Nisus briefly but didn't find their support better than Mellel when it came to right-to-left support. That being said, the undo feature in Mellel was severely lacking and often didn't work, certainly undoing formatting changes didn't work. A number of footnote references from bookends were superscripted. In Mellel 5.0 you’ll find several important additions, such as ePUB export, Word Format (docx) export, new document options, Track changes improvements, table editing convenience and more. When I converted to rtf from Mellel, the Hebrew words were all reversed, I imagine that is due to it's specific right-to-left implementation. It is not like Microsoft Word not that it claims to be, but Microsoft Word sets a very high standard of what should be standard things in the industry. I have been using Mellel for a good number of months.
#MELLEL WRITER TRIAL#
I hope these comments have been helpful, but if you are truly curious about NWP, you should check out the trial version they offer.I think this would be of some use to people toying with this workflow. Because of NWP's dark mode, I will test it a bit more. If it were not for dark mode, I would have already given up on NWP and returned to Mellel. although, as I said above, I've only briefly tested it. I don't yet understand the logic of NWP's styles system.
That logic is a large reason I love Mellel. Although it did take some work to master styles in Mellel, I always felt that there was a comprehensive logic to the system. They do not seem to be as well organized as styles in Mellel. I am also having trouble figuring out how styles work in NWP. It just doesn't seem promising or worth the purchase. Plus, weird stuff like: if I switch to "Icon Only" mode on the toolbar, half the icons become cut-off and off-center. Although the dark mode is nice, the icons, palettes, and other interface elements are not to my taste. Thanks for the hint about entering the pt after the. My impression is that the interface is more cluttered and less thoughtfully laid out than Mellel's. Yes, I understanding the linked paragraph styles I use in Mellel, Nisus Writer, and had in MS Word. I am still very much hoping that Mellel will introduce a dark mode. Perhaps something to try out for now, at least. Unfortunately it seems (at least in my brief testing) to be not as good in other ways as Mellel.
#MELLEL WRITER PRO#
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. I noticed recently that Nisus Writer Pro has a decent dark mode.
#MELLEL WRITER HOW TO#
If Mellel could figure out how to implement a dark mode that applies both to the interface and to the document itself, then that could positively set it apart from other word processors (and be a big selling point considering the popularity of dark mode these days).īecause Mellel does so many other things better than other word processors, I am sure they could make a fantastic dark mode, too! (Word used to offer a "Blue background, white text" setting, but sadly no longer. Meanwhile, the latest versions of Pages and Word make the interface dark, but leave the page color white - unless, of course, you manually change the background and text color of your document.
But these are not WYSIWYG word processors like Mellel is, so I realize there could be important differences in that respect. Scrivener has done a beautiful job with their dark mode and so have plenty of the "minimalist text editors". It is great to see that someone else here agrees that this feature would be useful! I thought I was alone :(Ī few additional thoughts.
