I think, what I did wrong was not to select all the references with ctr
a and use afterward the abbreviation step.
What I haven't solved yet is this:
if I select in JabRef e.g. options, it opens *behind* the JabRef main
window. How do I get it to open in such a way that it is visible right
away without having to move the main window aside?

I am trying to use the built in journal abbreviation list of JabRef-4.3.1
With Options>manage Journal abbreviations I select
JabRef built in list
but it does not seem to work for the references. If I check again
Options>manage Journal abbreviations
the list is not selected any more. I looked in the Internet but could
not find a remedy. Does somebody know how to do it?

Sorry for the OT question, but the JabRef FAQs are difficult to search
through.
BTW, I am using Linux Mint
