Floating citations multiple refs
Posted: Tue Apr 09, 2019 10:12 am
Hi all,
Apologies if this has been answered, but I cannot find it in the archives or in the FAQ.
I'm currently using Scrivener to write a dissertation and am wondering what the easiest way to input multiple references into my manuscript using floating citations. For example, if I want to cite both Smith 2015 and Rogers 2017, do I cite one with the unique identifier, then delete the close bracket on the first citation } and the open bracket on the other and merge them with a semi-colon? (e.g. {Smith, 2015, #6755} & {Rogers, 2017, #4456}= {Smith, 2015, #6755; Rogers, 2017, #4456}.
With papers and paperpile, I could select all of the citations before actually inputting them into the manuscript. The software would also know, according to the style selected, which citation to put first, etc.
Am I missing a feature or a workflow, or do I have to input the multiple refs and manually connect them with semi colons (and also verify their correct order via the style guide)?
Thanks a bunch!
