A small suggestion...

Post by grebmar »

I like the small paper clip icon to indicate there is an attachment with the reference. Would it be possible to add another small icon to show that the reference has a link associated with it? Right now, I indicate the existence of a link by highlighting it with a specific color, but I would prefer a small icon, since I cannot label a reference with two colors if necessary.

Thanks,
Peter Ramberg

HI, it's possible, but I wonder if many people would find that useful. For example, every download from PubMed, WOS, JSTOR has a URL link, so showing that would not be useful. And of course it takes up screen real estate. What do others think?

To follow up my own post--there's a new list view reference display option coming in a future update (that feature is done, but I can't say exactly when that particular update will be released, it depends on a number of factors). I'll add a URL indicator to that.
