 Dear all,
 
 I'm using BibDesk with several kinds of materials,
 for example article, inbook, etc...
 
 I'm using Cite Key Autogeneration functionality as
 
 %a1_%f{Journal}_%Y_v%n
 
 gives an example of the cite key:
 
 McCracken_Source-Forge_2004_v0
 
 However, for inbook, there is no ENTRY Journal,
 so autogeneration just skip the part.
 
 McCracken__2004_v0
 
 Is there any way of replacing Journal by (for example) Booktitle,
 if there is no ENTRY journal?
 Or is it possible to tell BibDesk use Booktitle for inbook.
 
 Sorry if there is a same question.
 
 Sincerely,
 masa

You can use %f{Container} for this.

[Bibdesk-users] stringByConvertingDoubleHyphenToEndash broken?

2011-10-11 Thread Simon Spiegel
Is the tag stringByConvertingDoubleHyphenToEndash currently broken? I've been 
using this tag for quite some time, but with version 1.5.6 fields which contain 
two hyphens aren't displayed at all. As soon as I remove the tag from the 
template, the field is displayed – with two hyphens of course.

[Bibdesk-users] Importing PDF files

2011-10-11 Thread M. Tamer Özsu
I think I am doing something wrong and would appreciate any help. I thought it 
was possible to drag and drop a PDF file on the bibdesk library, but although 
the PDF is included as an entry, it has empty title (all the fields are empty 
in fact). I am dropping it to the top window when bibdesk is open. Am I doing 
something wrong somewhere?

Thanks.

You're right, there's an error there. I'll have it fixed in tomorrow's nightly.

No, you're doing nothing wrong. The PDF is a file, it's not a bibliography 
entry, so where would it get the fields from? (and if your answer is from the 
PDF, then the answer back is How?)

Some PDF files do have this information included as metadata that some programs 
are able to extract. I thought there might be a mechanism such as that, but I 
understand that there isn't.

There is, but most of that metadata is junk.  Look for BDSKShouldUsePDFMetadata
