Re: [Bibdesk-users] Adding a user-defined shortcut
It is very likely not the characters you are using to define the shortcut causing your difficulties assuming you follow the instructions described here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8564.html. Perhaps the only exception being the "..." at the end of the command (but see former URL for hints on this). Do you see the status bar at the bottom of the edit window of the publication with which you are testing this? Unless you have the status bar active, the shortcut does indeed not show up. Use menu command "View -> Show Status Bar" and "View -> Hide Status Bar", respectively, to control the visibility of the status bar at the bottom of edit windows. Unless you checked all these things out I doubt there is a bug in BibDesk. It works fine for me.

Doesn't work for me :( I have the publication-window open and had a look onto the menu when I was in a text-field and outside of a text-field. The shortcut just doesn't appear in the menu. I tried it now with another menu-entry with a "…" (New Publication from File…) at the end and there it doesn't work neither. It seems that this is the problem because it works with menu-entries that do not have "…" at the end. I tried the same in another application with such a menu-entry (with "…" at the end) and there it works w/out any problems. And just to be clear: I tried "…" and "..." (but afaik the first one is the one that should work; and I c&p the one from Christiaan) I am using Bibdesk 1.5.1 Niels -- Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Adding a user-defined shortcut
"Add Field..." But what might confuse you is the fact that the shortcut does show up only once the menu command has become active. Define the shortcut and then open a publication for editing. The shortcut should now be visible.

[Bibdesk-users] Adding a user-defined shortcut
Hi, I want to add a shortcut for Publication -> Add Field… but whatever I enter in the Keyboard-Pref Pane doesn't work. I tried "Add Field", "Add Field…" and "Add Field..." -- what do I have to use?
