Priority: medium
Bug ID: 61426
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: : Bibliography "type" field is different from that in
database
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 3.5.4 release
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
In the bibliography index/table it is necessary to have a “Type” allocated to
each entry in order that the correct format can be applied for the entry in the
bibliography. For example a book entry would have different items in it from a
Book excerpt or a Journal entry. There is a “Type” field in the bibliography
database but entering anything in this field, either in the external database
or via Tools > Bibliography Database has no effect on the entry format. Also,
in the form opened by Tools > Bibliography Database there is no entry box after
“Type”.
It seems that the only way to enter a Type is to go to a reference to the item
in the document text, right click on it, click on Bibliography Entry, an Edit
Bibliography Entry dialogue comes up, click on Edit and a Define Bibliography
Entry dialogue come up in which the Type can be selected from a drop down list.
Click OK and click modify. If you have changed anything it asks if you want to
alter the existing record.
