Highlight bug?

Post by rwg »

A couple of updates ago Bookends introduced the very nice feature of highlighting a reference in List View when the corresponding reference window was closed. This no longer seems to be working in the latest update, with the reference being greyed out rather than highlighted. Is there anything I can do to restore the highlighting function?

The correct reference is highlighted (but disabled). If the Info Drawer is open, it will receive the focus. Either close the Info Drawer or click on the List View and the selection there will be enabled.

I'll see if I can have the focus always restored to the List View when the reference window is closed.

Thanks for the prompt response. Up until now (at least in my experience) the reference was highlighted (and not disabled) even if the Info Drawer was open, so it would be nice if this functionality could be restored.

Jon, just fyi: It's not just when you close a reference window that the focus now flips to the info drawer. If you don't have a reference window open, just the list, and have the focus on the list and a reference highlighted, if you switch to a different program, then switch back to Bookends, the focus also flips from the list to the info drawer if it's open.

Yes, I know. As I said, I'll fix it in the next update.
