Thank you for presenting Ulysses in a clear and concise manner. You are a very good instructor.
I love these videos. Would love one on the advanced features of Ulysses!
This was super helpful -- thank you for making this guide!
Thanks for this. I hadn't realized you can just drag a file onto the library. I respectfully suggest you introduce Markdown by pointing out how *difficult* it is to look at HTML source code and read anything--well, with Markdown, now you can see both the code and your writing at the same time!
Thank you for putting up this video, this will transform all my tons of work into a simple App that does all I need to do, and know,about the amount of copy I have to deal with. Love your work!
Excellent presentation! You covered a number of things I had been trying to figure out how to do. Thanks!
This was really helpful. Thank you, Michael!
Thank you, Michael. You made it all really clear and touched on the things I would be interested in knowing. As always, a pleasure.
thanks for this tutorial. solidifies my decision to switch from scrivner.
edit: you are SO right that it's like evernote's and scrivener's baby! it's exactly what i need! i loved scrivener but after a while, all the formatting got distracting. and evernote was too limited. i mean, you can't even change the font! (using ipad). then there's bear. i loved its simple design but that damn markup language was too in your face. i hated it! i love how ulysses grays out the markup symbols so they're not distracting. so excited to write now!
Thanks. Good images. Solid audio. Organized script. Very helpful.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you, Michael, I shall press on...
Great job. Thank you for putting this video out there. it helped me.
Exactly what I was looking for, great job, sir!
Excellent! Thank you!
Wow, what an amazing app. Your 20 minute tutorial was very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome!
I would appreciate to know how you create the 'headers' (like 'Waiting to Be Filmed)... I don't see it in this great tutorial. Can you tell us? Thanks
I've been trying to figure out the same thing
Another very helpful video. I consider myself a very competent Ulysses user, but I learned a few things, including the ability to create tabs. Thanks!
Great tutorial. You seem an experience author. Good.
Thank you!
Thank you for this great video. Nicely done and super helpful! Still not sure if I love or loathe Ulysses just yet. It's almost too simple for its own good yet not simple at the same time.
Hello, I’ve decided to dedicate myself to learning how to use Ulysses. I wish the company had more video tutorials. It would be awesome if you’d ever consider doing a few more. For example, a tutorial dedicated to exporting work and the various options. Also, some coverage about the proper way to attach photos or pdf files to the content of a project. And, speaking of external content such as photos, pdf news clippings, links to Google books, etc., do you like to keep these things attached to source material sheets in Ulysses? Or attached in the comments/notes section of a document? If this is something you do, please let’s us know? What a stupendous feature it would be to have these things at our finger tips in a Ulysses writing project. Thanks and sorry for all the questions.
Hello Michael! I've watched many videos from you. I just started writing my thesis (medicine) and I'm planning to insert some images, graphs, and tables as well as index and references. Should or can I do everything from Ulysses or should I use another app to help me with these? Thanks a lot for your help.
That was excellent!! Thank You!!
Very clear presentation. i Thx John
Great tutorial, Thanks!
Good job. Very useful
Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial!
you are awesome! Thank You!
Very good and informative video. Thank you !
Excellent tutorial! I was debating between this app and a few others but your tutorial made it clear on which one was the best. Would you say that Ulysses is still your favorite app for writing in iPad in 2924?

Is there a way to make a table of contents I have a poetry manuscript and I need a table of contents it would be good to do one in Ulysses itself?
Please help. I can’t seem to get it to separate out the chapters and I’ve tried grouping and arranging every way I could think of. About to give up on this program for writing books
In the actual version für MacOS I can't find a way to make the text Right-justified or centered. Can someone help me?
I love Ulysses, changed my life, and made me want to write again. Scrivner made me want to die.
Thank you so much for this, Michael. Easier to learn this way than the actual Ulysses tutorial.
Great tutorial! I have a question regarding the "markup" button located in the top right of your video. I only have options for export, find, revision, and dashboard. I do not see a shortcut button for "markup" as you have in your video. Is there a way to activate/show this button? Even my markup tab is all grayed-out unless I choose the very last option of, "markup panel", which will bring up a menu similar to the one you were able to access with the shortcut button in the top right. Is there an option to display this button statically like I currently have for export, find, revision, and dashboard?
Ulysses changed this recently. I’m not a huge fan of it. But you can access the markup tab by clicking it on the menu on the top of the screen now. The button was removed.
@@AuthorLevelUp I thought that might be the case, thanks for the clarification!
Hi, Michael, I'm going to pick on you a little bit and point out that you start a lot of sentences with "So."
You're not the only one. I'm a transcriptionist, and I've noticed this verbal tic has crept into a lot of presenters' narratives over the past few years.
I do appreciate you making this video. (I'm undecided between Jutoh and Ulysses for epub formatting. Scrivener+Sigil is too tedious, and Vellum's options are limited.)
I know. Hard habit to break!!!
How do I delete uploads? I know you can drag a file outside of app, but it doesn't delete it within the app? I WANT to like this app, but finding it a bit user-hostile at present.
I downloaded ulysses onto my iPad Pro. There is no tool bar and other features. Is it a different version for the iPad ?
great content
Thank you!!!!!!!
When would you choose to use Ulysses and when would you chose to use Scrivener?
I use Scrivener for fiction and Ulysses for nonfiction, blogging, etc.
With Ulysses, can you export your book in a format that can be uploaded to Kindle or Apple Books?
Yes, Ulysses supports ePub format.
@@AuthorLevelUp Thank you!! I'm ready to try Ulysses due to your help. :)
@Athour Level Up Is there a way that I can possibly look up my book's margins and trim size in Scrivener like how I can in Microsoft Word?
I’m not sure. Check the Literature and Latte forums. I do know that paperback formatting in Scrivener is lacking and not ideal.
@@AuthorLevelUp Where can I find those?
Could you show us how you outline with Ulysses?
I somehow can't create a new sheet or group
Super helpful! Thanks!
Could you use Ulysses as a daily journal?
Absolutely! I use it for my daily blog, which is like a journal.
Michael, on another tact...how do I import ANY screenwriting template into Ulysses? I have tried and tried and tried...using their own styles.@Author Level Up
I’ve never imported a screenwriting template into it. Ulysses doesn’t seem to be suited for this in my opinion.
@@AuthorLevelUp okay good to know. I've gotten it to work w/I Scrivener so that will be how I'll do it.Thx for helping me not waste time on this.
I have my current docs in either pages, or google docs. Does that require a different process? I tried dragging and dropping to no avail.
You might try exporting to doc and then trying to drag and drop.
Author Level Up I just copied and pasted. I lost some of the page breaks but it was easy to “select all” and move it that way. Thanks for the reply and the video. I am very visual when it comes to learning new software!
How do you center text in Ulysses? On Pages you can do so in the format pane - not seeing that option in Ulysses.
You should be able to do it via the hamburger menu just above the word processing area. Three little lines on top of each other.
@@AuthorLevelUp there is no hamburger menu above the word processing area in the Ulysses version I have which I obtained about 4? months ago.
can anyone tell me why my "new sheet" button doesn't work? I just got the app and it won't let me click "new sheet"
Not sure about that one. Probably best to reach out to Ulysses support.
Michael, there is no hamburger insignia above my word processing plane of my Ulysses. How do I center text? @Author Level Up
The only way to do it at this point is to address this via your CSS settings unfortunately. Ulysses isn’t very good with alignment or paragraph customization.
@@AuthorLevelUp ok, I will work on getting into that. sent you another question via your website and also somewhere on these comments about imparting one of Ulysses' styles/templates for screenwriting. thx for your reply
@@AuthorLevelUp and to this point...I will just keep novels on Ulysses and other stuff on Scrivener. Thx for helping me not spin my wheels unnecessarily.
Would I be able to import/export out of Google Drive?
Not directly, but you can export to Word doc, which can be imported into Drive.
Thanks. Love your content
How do I make a first line paragraph indentation?
Look at around time stamp 17:40 on this video.
Arrg, all the good apps are Mac, and all I have is PC D:

Just add to title only osX user...
Oh, lost me at Mac. PC always.
