Spelling checker is buggy
The spelling checker is aggravating. I type in both English and Italian. Despite having both languages selected in my System Preferences, Ulysses cannot distinguish Italian when it occurs and automatically corrects Italian words to English. Selecting an Italian keyboard is no help either. The only solution I’ve found is to turn off spell check altogether and turn off autocorrect. Yet doing so reduces the functionality of the app. In addition, I find the markup distracting, which is exactly the opposite of the “distraction-free” intention. Also, when you put it in full-screen mode, the font becomes huge. Why isn’t there a way to keep the font a reasonable size even in full-screen mode? I like the idea of “sheets” (and in this respect it is more useful than Scrivener), but there are too many other things that I find distracting about this app. Maybe with time some improvements will be made.
