Over the last three years, we've managed to acquire quite the lengthy list of feature requests!
In order to better reflect and communicate the development status, visibility, and organization of the ideas board, we're making some changes and updates, including:
We appreciate your patience and understanding while we carry out these slightly messy updates!
These changes should improve the performance of syncing and version history, especially at peak times!
Today we’re shipping a HEAVILY requested feature!
Comments.
On.
Main.
Say goodbye to the days of draft-only comments. Now you and your collaborators can leave comments right smack in the main doc. 🥵
Commenting on the main document works the same as in drafts.
Simply highlight the text you wish to comment on -> type, style, and post 💌
Comments can be carried over from the main doc to drafts (just select keep comments) 👇… as well as merged back into the main document from drafts 😱
We’re updating the titles of collaborator roles to better reflect all the things Ellipsus can do now!
To be clear: the permissions structure isn’t changing, just the names! You can get acquainted with the new role titles here: Collaboration in Ellipsus
Typewriter scrolling keeps the line your typing on in a fixed spot, while the scrolling view moves around it.
Typed lines will move up the page, rather than down, as your cursor stays level, for a super steady writing experience—just like a typewriter!
To toggle on go to Editor settings -> Typewriter scrolling.
Want to change from monthly to lifetime? Now you can make the swap directly from your Billing page!

In order to better support our over 600k users, we've moved to a new support tool! As a result, you might encounter some 404s on existing blog posts, emails, etc., but we're getting things switched over within Ellipsus and in all new posts and updates.
You can still find all of the Ellipsus help articles at help.ellipsus.com, as well as within the support widget, which you can access from your Ellipsus dashboard or within any document/draft!
A new option for anyone with a veeeeery long doc or complicated outline (and no desire to look at all of it at once).
Turn on collapsible headings in your Editor settings, then click or tap the arrow beside any H1–H4 header to tuck that section away, safe and sound.
Collapsible headers work in the editor and Reader links, so you can use it while writing, outlining, and editing; or to help your readers stay focused on one section at a time.
You can now change your email address and (if you really want to) delete your Ellipsus account directly from your settings page!
