Another Ibid. Question

Stupid question of the day.

Is it possible to suppress the use of "Ibid." on a per citation basis?

Here's the situation, in case I'm barking up the wrong tree.

I have a citation that includes multiple references. The next citation is the same book as the last book in the list of multiple references. For clarity's sake, I would rather not use "Ibid." in that situation.

1. Ref. X, 23. Ref. Y, 209. Ref Z, 36.
2. Ibid. 27.

I would like it to appear:

2. Ref. Z, 27.

Thanks,
Hussein

Hi,

No, not automatically.


You could, I suppose, use a "self-deleting" citation so that it is included in the bibliography but not in the text, and enter the formatted footnote yourself:

{!author, date, text} Ref X, 27.

Of, if you don't have a bib, just use Copy Formatted to place it where you want.
