Also "suppress-date" As in - 'In 1905 two fundamental physics papers were published (Heisenberg) and (Einstein). The Ibidem citation insertion panel has Suppress *brackets around the citation *authors name *date (Of course if all these were selected there would by nothing left to display.) The suppression of brackets around the citation is for this entry only. Bruce says this will be handled globally. A use of local suppression could be used in a cases like this - 'A major advance in physics occurred when Einstein published one of his fundamental physics papers (1905). In this case we have not typed in 'Einstein' but used the insert citation with 'brackets around the citation' and 'date' suppressed. Is this worth supporting and is 'Einstein' really a citation? the (1905) paper defiantly is a citation. So I am uncertain about this one. Also I have proposed an other method to achieve this sort of thing - that "Bibliographic attributes should be available from the Cross-reference facility", see http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Writer_enhancements_for_OOBib#Bibliographic_attributes_should_be_available_from_the_Cross-reference_facility Ibidem has several other insert citation options including - a custom, manual entry for this instance only. See: http://bibliographic.openoffice.org/screenImages/IbidemDescription_html_m6ca0a53b.gif I do not propose that we blindly follow all the features of Ibidem but we should consider if they are worth supporting. regards David > Here's the fragment: > > biblioref-attlist &= attribute meta:resource { xsd:anyURI }, attribute > cite:style { "suppress-author" } > > Bruce > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
