JabRef uses "field weights" internally to determine how much space to use for the various fields. However, there is no mechanism to customize these weights, so custom fields will end up having the default weight. Therefore, the only way to customize this is to make code changes. I realize this isn't something the average user wants to get into, but if you want to, the actual changes are fairly straightforward. You need to add or modify a single line for each field you want to change (the field properties are set up in src/java/net/sf/jabref/BibtexFields.java). -- Morten ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
