Problem with tags in notecards

Post by Philologist »

There is a problem with tags in notecards.

If I create a note like this:

@35 Some text, some text
or
#Header
@35 Some text, some text


then I can both Copy Citation (Command-Y) with the page number and Copy Note And Citation (Command-K) with the page number. In both cases the page number is retained. BUT, as soon as I enter a tag:

#Header
%Problem
@35 Some text, some text


the page number will not appear anymore, neither in Copy Citation (Command-Y) nor in Copy Note And Citation (Command-K); and "@35" will be placed at the beginning of the cited text, where it does not belong.

Oddly enough, if the tag(s) are inserted in a new line, below the text, then the page number(s) are retained in both Copy Citation (Command-Y) and Copy Note And Citation (Command-K). This is of course unsatisfactory, because the tags are invisible in the note stream view, if the text comprises more than 3 lines (see screenshot).

This seems to be somehow related to this old thread from 2012:

I hope this can be fixed.

I made a silent update with the fix, so you can download 12.5.5 again. If you run into any more issues with it please contact tech support directly.
