Re: [Bibdesk-users] Would there be a way to disable auto-completion in fields?

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

disabling auto-save seems to solve my issue indeed. I had never realised it was 
on actually!

Thanks,

I did not press ⌘-S or clicked File > Save though. Definitively not. You wrote 
auto-saving above. I was not aware Bibdesk was doing that. Auto-saving the .bib?

[Bibdesk-users] Would there be a way to disable auto-completion in fields?

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

when I create or edit an entry, auto-completion is very slow. I get the beach 
ball for many seconds. Is there a way to disable the auto-completion? I don’t 
really need it: I import 99% of the record from a file or the clipboard. I 
don’t see any way to do that in the Preferences. Perhaps with the “defaults” 
command? For the record, I have a library with 4000+ entries.

Best wishes,

Luc J Bourhis

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Barely legible count badges

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

I see, thanks. Unfortunately, I have enabled Reduced Transparency in System 
Preferences > Accessibility > Display, so changing the Desktop background 
cannot change anything on my machine. But indeed disabling that, and setting 
the Desktop background as entirely black increases the contrast between the 
numbers and their background. I don’t know if there is any connection but Mail 
displays more legible count badges.

[Bibdesk-users] Barely legible count badges

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

I have just noticed that the counts are barely legible. I am sure it was ok a 
short while ago: I have now 1.8.15 (6104), and MacOS 11.7.4.

Hi Christiaan,

thanks, sorry for being lazy! Yes, I will try and if it works, I’ll share the 
templates on this mailing list.

[Bibdesk-users] Mathjax in HTML templates?

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

I am wondering whether the rendering of HTML templates allows Javascript to 
run. I am talking about the window showed in the picture below. If it does, 
then I want to try to add Mathjax to the template to render equations nicely. 
And hopefully faster than the TeX preview.

[Bibdesk-users] Smart group for incomplete publications?

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

I could not find a way to make such a group. As it stands the Database > Select 
Incomplete Publications is not that useful if one has many of those in the 
database: opening all the selections is too much whereas keeping only one 
selected to open it means one has to do the search again and again. I thought 
of using a Script group but I could not find a way to select incomplete 
publications with AppleScript either.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] BibDesk 1.7.6

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

Jenniffer makes me realise I have never thanked Christaan for the beautiful 
craft over so many years, and also Adam and Michael judging from the “About…”. 
I just could not work without Bibdesk either. The cherry on the cake for me is 
its fantastic scripting abilities. I second Jennifer for the review: if there 
is anywhere I can spread the message that Bibdesk is awesome, I’ll do it!

Best wishes,

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Thumbnail after adding PDF and autofiling

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi Christiaan,

actually, it does work fine sometimes but other times, I just get a blank 
document icon instead of a proper thumbnail. Sorry, I should have mentioned 
that! I did not spot a relevant difference between the PDF for which it works 
and those for which it doesn’t. I’ll pay more attention.

Best wishes,

Luc

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Thumbnail after adding PDF and autofiling

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi Jason,

sure. My script takes a DOI from the clipboard, then add a new record as well 
as grabbing the PDF from sci-hub. The latter part is done with a Ruby script. 
Unfortunately it sometimes fail, in which case, I just open the sci-hub page in 
Safari, and then I get the PDF manually, and drop it in the newly created 
Bibdesk entry. You could easily edit my script to always do that. Here is the 
Applescript part. Notice that I rely on the Applescript library _string. It can 
still be found thanks to the wayback machine at 
https://web.archive.org/web/20170816081647/http://applescript.bratis-lover.net/library/string/

I have a similar script automatically creating entries from an arxiv number 
(this is a preprint server very popular with mathematicians and physicists).

Best wishes,

Luc

[Bibdesk-users] Thumbnail after adding PDF and autofiling

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

I have an AppleScript executing the following statements

add (POSIX file pdf) to beginning of linked files
auto file

It works perfectly except that the thumbnail is not generated. I am talking 
about that which appears in the item windown and in the right panel of the main 
window. I get a generic white document icon instead. Right-clicking on it and 
choosing “Reload” does create the thumbnail fine. It would be nice if the 
script was able to do that without my intervention!

Version 1.7.7 on MacOS 10.14.6.

[Bibdesk-users] Feature request: remove file on disk when removing link

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

it would be sweet if BibDesk would propose to remove the actual file on disk 
when one removes a link from a record. It happens every now and then that 
either I filed the wrong file, or more often that I want to replace a preprint 
by a later version or the published one. Currently, I have to remove the link, 
add the new one, then use “Reveal in Finder” and remove the old one. A bit 
tedious.

Best wishes,

[Bibdesk-users] Crash with applescript on 1.7.5

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

the attached Applescript, which has worked fine for over a year, now 
systematically crashes. I also attached the stack trace. That Applescript 
relies on some Ruby script I haven’t attached. Please tell me if you want that 
too. 

Best wishes,

Luc J Bourhis

[Bibdesk-users] Auto-completion when adding new fields not working properly

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

When using the menu Publication > Add Field…, and start typing the field I want 
to add, the auto-completion does not quite work as it should I think. The first 
character typed triggers a completion but then it does not adjust on the 
subsequent typed characters. I often find myself to add Crossref for example, 
and I always get Chapter filled in that field. Please watch the movie here 

 if it is not clear.

Best wishes,

Luc J Bourhis

[Bibdesk-users] BibLaTeX new fields

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

I use BibDesk with biber to generate the TeX preview and it works great. The 
only annoyance is to do with the new fields allowed by BibLaTeX. Case in point 
for me: the article entry type. I use it to file preprints, and I then use the 
fields “eprint", “eprintclass" and “eprinttype" (or their alias “primaryclass" 
and “archiveprefix" for arxiv compatibility). They do not appear in the 
dropdown menu brought by “Add Fields…” and I therefore need to type them. Is 
there a way for users to add fields to that menu or is that something only you, 
the author, can do? If the latter, could you consider adding the BibLaTeX 
fields? Perhaps not by default but by first adding a checkbox in the 
preferences to let the user request that feature.

As always, thanks for your great work,
Best wishes,

Luc J. Bourhis

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Thumbnail generation broken on High Sierra

[Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users]

Hi,

Oh, I see! Somehow the %e disappeared from the file name template used by 
autofile. Looks like I did something stupid while moving the settings to the 
new computer…

Thanks a bunch!
