I need to change the formatting of many references, and I already have developed my own styles. The only way I know how to apply it is by going through each reference individualy, which is time consuming. Is there a way to change it by selecting many references at once? Let me give an example: many references are formatted as "Book" but I need to change them to "Book section", how to do it efficiently when lots of references need to be changed?

Also, when you have an open reference, is there a keyboard shortcut to go to the next/previous one?

Paul,

It would be helpful to have direct accessibility from Notes modul to Compositions. What I mean is: I want to assign notes created in the Notes modul from here to Compositions. This could be achieved with a "Composition Tab" on the Notes window (as I have one for Categories). I know there is the possibilty to create notes directly under the Composition modul, but for arranging my notes I work mostly under Notes modul.

Thank you very much
Marcus

Paul,

Is it possible to add dynamic links to "Notes Web Local" linking possibility (like it is with attachments)?

Thank you very much

Dear Paul,

here are some minor bugs I observed in recent days:

a) In Category modul on the Notes in Inspector pane ther are no note types (of notes) visible;

b) In "General Display" of Preferences the "Search folder inherits parent properties" is not unselectable. When I unselect this is not stable.

c) When using the shortcut CTRL +Shift + T for inserting a temporary citation in a note, very often the citation is not inserted at the place of the cursor, but in first line of the note.

I would like to get the date to look like this: "April 4, 1950" BS gives me "April4", that is, without a space between them. I don't think I can adjust this in the style editor. Am I wrong.

Thanks

Matt

The short form does not provide a period after the abbreviated title. I can't figure out how to fix this in the output styles tool.

thanks

when multiple citation are formatted in a footnote using chicago 15th notes style Biblioscape adds a ";" between them, but does not remove the final period in the formatted citation. The result is ".;" between the citations. Again, this is easy to strip using find and replace, but I thought you might want to clean this behavior up in a future release.

Thanks,

matt

My temporary citations look like the following: [Thomas, 1927 @2240 #1943]

When I format my citation is MS Word in Chicago 15th Notes I get an extra space between the page number and the final period of the citation.

William I. Thomas and Znaniecki, The Polish Peasant in Europe and America, vol. II (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1927), 2240 .

When I remove the space between the page number and the reference number in the temporary citation [Thomas, 1927 @2240#1943] that extra space seems to go away.

In style editor, BS seems to mix up the seperators for two and more than two editors in an edited book: I get,

Hubertus Gaßner und Christiane Lange, Wick, Oliver (Hg.): Mark Rothko. Retrospektive. München: Hirmer 2008

even though according to my settings it should look like

Hubertus Gaßner Christiane Lange und Oliver Wick (Hg.): Mark Rothko. Retrospektive. München: Hirmer 2008

Paul,

is it possible to add on the note tab of a reference the "Shoot Note" command? This could allow user to sent notes directly to Word within a reference (e.g. to establish a excerpt).

Thank you very much
