MarsEdit 3.3: Full Screen Mode

May 27th, 2011

MarsEdit 3.3 is now available as a free update for all registered MarsEdit 3 customers. New customers may purchase via the Mac App Store or directly from the Red Sweater Store.

This release features a brand-new option to switch post editor documents into “Full-Screen” mode for more focused writing. In full-screen mode, the window is expanded to take up the entire space of the screen, and the menu bar is hidden from view.

Other changes include an option to speak the text of the active document, using Mac OS X’s increasingly awesome built-in speech synthesis, a preference for controlling font size in the main window, and a number of other enhancements and bug fixes.

  • New full-screen mode option for post editor windows
  • Now supports speaking the text in post editor
  • Supports Mac OS X text transformation in post editor
  • Added server-side text filter selection for Squarespace
  • Add Search/Replace functionality to preview template editor
  • Preferences changes
    • Add preference to adjust font size of main window UI
    • Change name of “Attribution” section to “Quick Posts”
    • Support preview of Quick Post HTML defaults
  • Bug Fixes
    • Restore functionality of printing from rich text mode
    • Fix rare crash when authenticating Blogger blogs
    • Fix MetaWeblog image uploads to avoid putting / character before file name
    • In rich mode, avoid styling the following paragraph when entire target paragraph is selected
    • In rich mode, improve undo to avoid undoing typing done immediately before a paste
    • Disable “smart” copy & paste in HTML code editor

Enjoy the release and have a great weekend!

    Nice – like the full screen editor, but it would be good for it to be totally distraction free, without any of the ME toolbars etc.

    Thanks for the feedback, Dave!

    I too would like to see true full screen mode, as in WriteRoom and nvALT. I was so disappointed it wasn’t. Would love an update!
