Bug ID: 421612
Summary: When formatting IDs, removed „small words” still get
counted, leading to unexpected results
Product: KBibTeX
Version: 0.9.2
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: User interface

could-be-fix for id title word counting
SUMMARY
KBibTeX can automatically format the IDs, a very handy feature. The possibility
to define custom formats is also very useful. However, when removing „small
words” (e.g. in the title), these removed words still get counted, leading to
an unexpected and non-constant amount of words in the final id.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a new ID formatting scheme
2. As only field choose "Title"
3. Choose "First Word" to "Third Word"
4. Enable removing small words
5. Format an entry with title "The very important Title"
(even worse if choosing only "First Word" to "First Word" if one wants the
first sensible word of the title)
OBSERVED RESULT
Id is formatted as "veryimportant"
(Id is formatted as empty string "")
EXPECTED RESULT
Id should be formatted as "veryimportanttitle"
(Id should be formatted as "very")
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
up-to-date Manjaro with KBibTex 0.9.2 from the official repositories
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I couldn't compile it myself on the quick, but something along the lines in the
attachment should result in the desired behaviour (only increasing the word
count when a word was really appended), at least for the title.
