Hi Christopher, What version of Invenio are you using?
In recent versions, the autocomplete-by-hotkey infrastructure has rotted a bit I'm afraid, and I'm not sure if it *can* work. But if I recall correctly, it should be backed by bibknowledge dynamic KBs which get created on the fly, so for an intended kind of autocomplete, you shouldn't have to very much configuration. Looking at the source of invenio/modules/bibedit/lib/bibedit_engine.js:2669 (function onAutosuggest), it looks like the set of tags used to specify which MARC fields are autosuggest and autocomplete are configured in CFG_BIBEDIT_AUTOSUGGEST_TAGS and CFG_BIBEDIT_AUTOCOMPLETE_TAGS_KBS and have something to do with CFG_BIBEDIT_KEYWORD_TAG. So if you can get it to work, it will probably be through the interaction of those variables and the bibknowledge subsystem. Bibknowledge is reasonably well documented - the regression tests, in particular, elucidate the API reasonably well. I hope this helps, Joe On 06/16/2011 01:44 AM, Christopher Dickinson wrote: > Hello, > > Am I correct that the auto-suggest functionality in BibEdit is launched with > Ctrl-Shift-a or Ctrl-9 ?
