I'm not sure exactly what the suggestion is here, but I would like to see the TeX-generated preview still be available, because one use I have for BD is to test out different .bst files, and also to check my progress as I edit them, and furthermore, the preview of the TeX- generated preview is so clear and readable that I often keep the preview pane set to show it to accomplish much of what is being discussed here, a kind of citation view. So I hope that whatever happens it is still going to possible to show that preview in the preview pane, or that the "citation" column contains the TeX-generated preview, although I am sure how this would work, if it were going to be so narrow. Again, I have lost the thread of this thread, so to speak, so this is just one reaction to what I'm seeing here. -Adam ================================= Adam M.
