Re: Feature request: keyboard shortcuts

I would like to support the request. I do see things like "Copy citation", but arrow keys are not working for me and there is no shortcut for search (Cmd-F or Option-Cmd-F) - these things would already help! A few more shortcuts from the macOS version would be great too, e.g "Edit Ref...

Re: Case protection in BibTeX export format

I'm sorry, I didn't know it was already implemented! Thanks a lot for that. Sounds very good. Of course I will be happy to use it.

Re: Case protection in BibTeX export format

What do you think of adding adding another option to the "don't change" behavior, to leave any word with 2 caps or more as is. This would not be BibTeX-specific, but would apply to normal use as well (normal meaning what non-BibTeX users do). It would be a separate checkbox in preferences...

Re: Case protection in BibTeX export format

One addition: the use of {and}, {in} , {if}, {of} etc. has the disadvantage that it prevents Bibtex from converting the title to all caps when required by the bibliography style.

Re: Case protection in BibTeX export format

I think it's ugly, too, but that's how the rules work now. Just to make sure there is no misunderstanding because of my first post. When using bib(la)tex (or pandoc with the --biblatex option), there is no rule or need to enclose words containing only lowercase letters in curly brackets (exception:...

Re: Case protection in BibTeX export format

I have to admit, the longer I look at this, the more I dislike the unnecessary protection of {of}, {and}, and {in}. It just looks wrong to a Latex user, I guess. What do you think of my first suggestion to protect all words from the "do not change case" list that contain at least one capit...

Re: Case protection in BibTeX export format

Yes, I did. I also have Bibtex markup selected. This is an example title: "The structure of the mRNA and its role in Paris" With title case this becomes: title = {The Structure of the mRNA and Its Role in {Paris}}, With sentence case: title = {The structure of the mRNA and its role in {Par...

Re: Case protection in BibTeX export format

I'm sorry for being late to the party. The feature is great as it is, but I would like to suggest one change. At the moment, words like "mRNA" or "iPhone" are not protected with curly braces, even if they are in the "Don't change case" -list (because they don't start wi...
