Re: [Bibdesk-users] http: URL thumbnails
Those of you who had performance problems with the web thumbnails, please give the next build (compiling now) a try. I think we've addressed those, but keep an eye out for incorrect drawing. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Bibdesk-users] CiteInPages author-date bibliographies in Pages now available
CiteInPages 0.97 is now two BibDesk Applescripts for converting working citations in Pages v. 3 to formatted in-text citations and bibliographies. The download includes the original "CiteInPages numbered" script for numbered citations and bibliographies and a new "CiteInPages author-date" script for author-date in-text citations and alphabetical bibliographies. This is the first release of the author-date script, so I'd be very grateful for additional testing and feedback from anyone interested in that style. It does pretty much what you'd expect: working citations containing cite keys are dragged into Pages from BibDesk during editing and the script converts them to author-date in-text citations and inserts an alphabetical bibliography in the document. The script tries to handle references with matching names and years along APA guidelines, though there are a number of permutations. Briefly, for papers in the same year that have matching first author last names but different initials, if there is not a difference in the names and numbers of other authors that would distinguish standard in-text citations, first author initials are used in the citations. If the first author is identical and the papers would not otherwise be distinguished by other author names and numbers, in-text citations are distinguished by appending "a", "b", "c", etc. to the year. Because there's no way to provide information from the script to BibDesk prior to the templating process to indicate what letters should be appended to the year in the final bibliography entries, the script adds a note at the end of any entries that need a letter appended to their year, indicating what the letter should be, and alerts the user in a dialog at the end of formatting that one or more references need to be manually edited. This should hopefully be a minimal effort, as there are normally few if any references with both name and year overlaps. The documentation and download instructions have been updated to reflect the new script.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Problem using Bibdesk
Hello, could you post a step-by-step description of what you are doing and how exactly you are trying to generate the bibtex file? Be aware that you need to select a package which can manage the desired bibliographystyle. Natbib.sty is widely used while I - being in humanities - use biblatex or jurabib. After choosing the sty-file and implementing it according to the manual you have to run latex-bibtex-latex-latex. Only after this you get correct citations and a correct bibliography. Also: using bibdesk will ease the management of bib files. One thing I noticed is that your citations have inconsistent cite keys. You might want to make them consistent using Bibdesk so that errors in the citekeys are better visible and citekeys themselves better recognizable (just my 5c, you may of course stick with your approach).

When you open your bib file in BibDesk, the cite key should be displayed in one of the columns. If that column is blank, double click the row for that entry and enter the cite key (which is klitzing:qhe for one entry and klitzing:nobel for the other).

Re: [Bibdesk-users] File migration dialog
Not necessarily. Automatic conversion does not always take place. E.g. if the item was already converted before, any new local file field will not be automatically converted. The file migration dialog still converts those items. Also it may be necessary after an import. Also the file migration dialog can tell you why some files may not be converted, automatic conversion will be silent. Christiaan On 2 Jan 2008, at 9:02 PM, Alexander H.

[Bibdesk-users] Problem using Bibdesk
I have been receiving the error "There were undefined references" whenever I try to use Bibdesk. If anyone could offer me some advice it would be greatly appreciated. Here are the errors as generated in the console: "LaTeX Warning: Citation `klitzing:qhe' on page 1 undefined on input line 8. LaTeX Warning: Citation `klitzing:nobel' on page 1 undefined on input line 9. No file example.bbl.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] File migration dialog
Seeing as file migration is, in fact, automatic on opening, isn't the only function of "migrate" effectively to delete your old local-url and url fields? As such, shouldn't it say something like "Your files have been migrated. Do you want to remove the old url and local-url fields?" -AHM On 2008-01-02, at 7:39 AM, Ingrid Giffin wrote: > These suggested changes to the dialog sound good--I opened one of the > nightlies to look at another feature, and was quite alarmed by the > "migrate" > dialog. > > I wonder if it would be a good idea to include a reminder to make a > backup > before clicking "ok"? > > --Ingrid > > > On 1/1/08 7:52 PM, "Adam R.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] File migration dialog
These suggested changes to the dialog sound good--I opened one of the nightlies to look at another feature, and was quite alarmed by the "migrate" dialog. I wonder if it would be a good idea to include a reminder to make a backup before clicking "ok"? --Ingrid On 1/1/08 7:52 PM, "Adam R.
