Re: Remove attachments from batch
FWIW, I was talking about hardware storage as cheap, not cloud storage. Oh my, I cannot believe how blind I can be at times. Well, it's common enough occurrence that I should no longer be surprised. I somehow combined the "bookends sync" service with where my PDFs were stored on iCloud an...

Re: Allow right click (to copy citations) when Bookends in background
I'll think about this and how it might be approached. I can see that with the latest release of bookends that I can right-click with the window in the background for a menu. Thank you. I only just tried this now and was blown away when it worked (so used was I to just bring the app to the front). O...

Re: Allow right click (to copy citations) when Bookends in background
As a Bookends , DEVONthink, and Scrivener user myself I dare to suggest that you add a clipboard manager to your workflow. Mine is Paste , it has pinboards designed to a specific purpose. And one of my pinboards is for Bookends references only. It's great to have the last copied references right th...

Re: Allow right click (to copy citations) when Bookends in background
I think the word processor integrations are spot on. Between Nisus, Mellel and Word (I prefer Scrivener to these but nevermind) I think things are good. I'm not using these citations right away though, I'm using them with my own system to track the quotes and paraphrases as I synthesise information ...

Re: Allow right click (to copy citations) when Bookends in background
That floating citations thing wasn't something I was aware of. My first trials of it felt very clunky, far clunkier than just bringing Bookends forward with a click, right clicking, and copying the citation. Then again, every 'new' thing has the high potential to feel clunky until we get used to it....

Re: Remove attachments from batch
Thanks all for your thoughts. I'm sorry I'm not super active on the forums to reply so quickly to responses here and my head isn't always in "the process" but rather the things I'm working on. Even understanding some of these posts has required multiple readings on my part :oops:. At any r...

More than one computer (a user has no need for this)
Hello, The wording of the FAQ on the topic of using bookends on more than one computer at a time reads as follows: Note that you can not run Bookends on more than one computer simultaneously (a single user has no need for this). When I was looking for a reference manager and Bookends was recommended...

Remove attachments from batch
I'd like to remove all attachments from a batch of items in Bookends. I use Bookends for its renaming and citation functionalities, my documents are stored in DevonThink. My workflow looks like this: 1. Drag an article to Bookends and it will fill the data out and rename the PDF. 2. Export the PDF (...

Allow right click (to copy citations) when Bookends in background
Hi, first time poster here. I've searched the forums as best I can with the search tool, but I might not have found something due to that tool's limitations. Apologies if this has already been raised. This issue interrupts my flow in a small but constant way and this thought occurs to me every time ...
