What determines whether or not these options are available? I now do most of my lit searches via the internal web of science / google scholar databases so this is largely irrelevant. Periodically, however, I am given citation lists that I must import into Bookends that are of varying degrees of completeness. I observe the following behavior that I cannot understand:
For some references "Auto Fill from Internet" is available and I can click it and it loads everything up -- awesome.
For others, "Auto Fill" is not available, but "Autocomplete Paper" (shift-command-c) is...Going through "autocomplete" does not add any info to the citation, but will activate the "auto fill from internet" option which will actually complete the reference. This seems inexplicable to me, but it is a simple enough work around.
For the remainder neither option is available (grayed out) no matter what i do...so i do it manually.
Is this a bug or am I not understanding something about the hierarchy of these options?

AutoComplete vs Auto Fill from Internet
Re: AutoComplete vs Auto Fill from Internet
Hi,
No bug I'm aware of.
Autofill is enabled if the reference has a PMID or DOI entered. Bookends needs that info to get the reference metadata.
Autocomplete Paper is enabled if you have a PDF attached. That's what you are "completing".
If you have none of these, use Online Search the normal way.
