I wrote an article where I used pointers to references using the "Insert
citation..." dialog. Works fine for normal articles. Then I thought that
the IEEEtran article style is nice and switched to it. Magically almost
with no effort the document looks much nicer now. However, there's a
problem with the citations.
When I have many citations, they are shown as following in the article
document class:
[4,5,6]
With the IEEEtran they show up as
[4], [?], [?]
first, the numbers are not together inside the square brackets which I'd
like to use. And much more worse, only the first reference is shown well,
all the rest show up as question marks. Is there any way to fix this
except to insert all references one by one?
And a minor legal question: may I use article classes such as IEEEtran for
reports that are not intended to be published in IEEE transactions journal
(or in any other journal for that matter)?
