How to clear all hits in the hits list?

Post by mwarner »

I've tried both methods listed in the userguide (below) and neither one works for me. Any one know how to do it in the latest version of BookEnds? I've just formatted a manuscript and have a boat-load of references in my hits list that I need to remove since if I try to create a new static group, all of the refs in the hits list go into the new static group...would rather not have to individually uncheck all of the refs.

"To clear the Hits List, select Hits in the groups list and press the Delete key of select Clear from the Edit menu."

Wow, that's certainly wrong. I've amended the User Guide to say this:

"To clear the Hits List, select Clear from the Hits menu. You can also select Hits in the groups list and then select Unmark All from the contextual menu that appears when you right-click or click on the Action pop-up menu. Alternatively, you can quickly unmark (or mark) all the reference in the Hits group by clicking on the checkbox next to any reference with the Shift key held down."

Thanks Jon!
I pulled that from p. 51 of the userguide.

I know. In the next update you'll see the text I entered above in its place.
