Feature request: temporary citation tool tip
Posted: Sat Jun 15, 2019 9:32 am
Hi,
I'm writing in Scrivener, using temporary citations with footnotes. When quoting many works of the same author, I often find myself reduced to guessing which work a placeholder (in curly brackets) refers to. (The guesswork is compounded by the fact that some of my sources are republications, meaning that the date displayed in the placeholder is often not the original date of publication.)
Is there a way to display the full citation short of switching over to Bookends and searching the reference in my database? I'm thinking tool tips, but maybe there exists another way (or workaround) to achieve this: Thank you for any pertinent suggestions!
