[Bibdesk-users] Copy by dragging file out of BibDesk

[Jan David Hauck]

When I drag a file from the Files Preview area out of BibDesk into a Finder
window, then an alias to the file is created there (as long as the
respective folder is on the same harddrive).

I can toggle this behavior when holding down the option key to instead
create a copy at that location.

Is there maybe some hidden preference to change that so that the default
becomes to create a copy?  I couldn't find any info on that behavior
online.

I have no idea, the AppleScript support in BibDesk works.

What I am telling you is that for some reason the same script that does
work calling python from bash does not work calling it from Automator.
Please not this works with 1.7.4 so it is not the automator flow.

So that's basically the same thing. That is fixed.

The script does this
tell first document of application "BibDesk" to import from
"@article{Einstein1917, ... bibtex omitted for brevity ...}"

same as my message on this same mailing list few days ago

I hate it that Apple uses the term Services for a huge number of different
things.

But if you have problems with the execution of a script, it depends on what
that script does. I don't know, because you didn't tell me.

Contextual Menu Services, which you can write with Automator.

In my case it selects the text (e.g. arXiv number) of the paper I want to
add to BibDesk and passes it to a "Run Bash script" Automator block, which
in turn passes to my Python script. The python scripts calls BibDesk
through apple script language in way that was working up to 1.7.4. Then it
was broken in 1.7.5 and later fixed in the nightlies. The fix in the
nightlies does not fix the problem when I feed the arXiv number through the
Contextual Menu Services. These, instead, worked fine with all the previous
versions up to 1.7.4. Let me know if I have not explained it well enough.
