Term list functionality on BOT

Post by dtziouris »

Hello,

would you consider adding term list functionality to BOT in a future update? I specifically miss the ability to select the references of interest based on keywords. I know I can create smart groups, but 1. you cannot combine them in a selection 2. are more cumbersome to create than having the list ready. I noticed that Smart group 'Authors' already behaves like a term list, only the multiple selection capability is missing.

In this context a keywords section in 'quick view' would be practical (or the ability to customize the 'quick view').

Regards,
Dimitris

Thanks for the suggestions. Term lists (which are available in Bookends) are an interesting idea. One possible obstacle is the speed with which they can be created and maintained (not a problem with defined entries like Authors and perhaps Keywords, but potentially a problem with fields like Abstract where there is a lot of CPU-intensive processing). But certainly something we can look into.
