How to translate the occurence of "Retrieved from" in the Bibliography?++
Posted: Mon May 25, 2020 8:27 am
I'm a relatively new Bookends + Mellel user, and love it so far.
But there's a learning curve, and I'm now struggling with some smaller issues, most notably:
How can I permanently translate the occurence of "Retrieved from" in front of URL's in the Bibliography?
I'm writing in Norwegian, and would love to just enter the norwegian translation, "set it and forget it", rather than having to edit every occurence manually. I've looked in the prefs, but haven't been able to locate any obvious user-editable field.
For now, I have solved all my initial problems by decoupling the Bibliography by unticking the "Live Bibliography" option in Mellel, and editing manually, as I'm in the finishing stages of my home exam. But I assume there must be a better, more elegant way - I tried to search these forums and the manual, but haven't found a solution so far. I'm following the APA 6th format, FWIW.
My other issue is related to italicizing titles - is it possible to define this somewhere in prefs? Haven't found any obvious way to do it so far.
And in an ideal world, I should be able to edit so that first citation mentions all authours upon first mention, but only the first author and et al. on subesquent mentions. Is it possible to set this up as well?
Advance thanks for any guidance!
