Hi,

Was wondering about some things i encounter with BE:
- would it be possible to allow BE to import refs with the ".ris" extension. I use several databases that export as such and changing extensions takes time
- really quite minor: when attaching a doc BE displays a dialogue asking in which folder to put the attachment. The option to create a new folder appears below the already existing ones. The list is long in my case so creating a new group takes a bit of a scroll.
- also about the attachment folders: would it be an idea to have the possibility two create a subfolder within a folder. It is not important for BE but for navigating files outside BE it would be great (for example if you want to quickly see what articles on a particular theme you have without going into BE)

Best,
Gerben

You can right now with drag and drop. In the next update, you'll be able to via the Import References menu, too.

I'll think about that. Not sure if it's a good idea to put it at the top or not...

also about the attachment folders: would it be an idea to have the possibility two create a subfolder within a folder.

The search time increases exponentially if you have subsubfolders, which at some point will become a real annoyance, which is why I didn't allow this.
