Re: Link types multiply?

No, I mean the fact that I have added 1x "Precursor : Sequel" and 1x "Sequel : Precursor" and there are two of each on the list and with this strange separation of "Precursor : Sequel" with two "Sequels" in between.

Hello,

In the selection menu for a link type, those types multiplied (see figure 2).

Open PDF with a specified application

Hi,

would being able to set a default application to open PDFs in Bookends, that is different from Finder default application, make sense?
Like, I use Highlights to work with PDFs from Bookends but I don't want Highlights to open every trivial PDF I have by default on my computer.

Something ...

Re: Request: Printing attachments

Nice, I have missed that. You can't select multiple references from the list and print their attachments in bulk, right?

I just wanted to post such request when I found this one from two years ago. Plus one from me then and here is hoping.

Re: Generate citekey when adding manually

Thanks for the tip with the keyboard shortcut. Is there any disadvantage of having citekeys generated by default?

Generate citekey when adding manually

Hi,

could we have the option "Create citekey when importing" also auto-generate them for manually added references? It's not much but that additional click to generate one adds up on multiple instances. Or perhaps a different checkmark option?

Cheers,

Re: The Authors page - suggestions for the future


To your first point, Bookends has a "merge" function for Term Lists, it's done via drag and drop, and is faster and more intuitive than find/replace. Please see the user guide (Help menu) for how that works.


Right, I forgot about that. Thanks!


As for the suggestion...that would make Bookends ...

The Authors page - suggestions for the future

Hi,

I've been spending my time in Bookends cleaning up the list of authors in the sibling panel of Groups with the Replace function (I was looking for "Merge" for a bit at first). It got me thinking that this part could perhaps use some love in the future iterations of Bookends.

I could see a ...

Author, Date - all text as a hyperlink to Bookends file

Hello,

I completely don't know how to crack this problem. What I would like to achieve is:
1. Invoke Floating Citations.
2. After finding and selecting the proper reference, I would like to paste the citation in the format of "(Author date)". So far so good.
3. I would also like the citation ...

Came back to Bookends and have issues with Online Search

Hi,

after a long break, I came back to Bookends and have one issue and one question concerning Online Search:
