Hi, my previous post is still "pending" and I don' know why I am excluded from this list of BibDesk users. Have I done anything wrong? I wil try to keep on posting until I get at least /some/ reaction, so here is my original post: It seems that in the character conversion preferences for two-way

[Bibdesk-users] Character conversion of math symbols

2011-08-19 Thread kbostroem
Hi, it seems that in the character conversion preferences for two-way conversions it is impossible to add a math symbol, because the preference editor forces me to start the TeX string with a "{\" and end it with a "}".

OK, thanks, I hope to actually not have rocked anyone's boat here, and I apologize if my postings caused annoyances. As a matter of fact, I'm very satisfied with BibDesk and will stay a happy user even without that darn preference item (although in this case a slightly less happy one ;-). Ah, forge

Sorry if I'm stepping into this discussion that lately, but I'm also one of those people with a burning desire for a default-PDF-viewer preference at a transparent place in BibDesk. In fact, I just didn't find this preference although I was looking for it in the BibDesk preference pane. I then goog
