When writing a paper, I often type {Author, year} as a short cut rather than click insert citation and then finding the author etc…
However, there doesnt seem to be a way to write a short cut for “Author (year)” rather than “(Author year)”. I noticed though that typing {Author year} (without a comma) produces the citation as “(Author)” - no year but in brackets.
I would think that 99% of citations that arent in the format “(Author year)” would need to instead be “Author (year)”. Can I therefore request that you make a code shortcut for this using the { } code. It could be {author (year)} ?? Or even you could replace {author year} as when does anyone need to cite an author in brackets without a date??
PLEASE!! I spend SOOO much time clicking edit citation in my thesis instead of just typing…
Thanks!
