Short forms for books in which a chapter appears?

Am I right that Endnote (X7 for Mac) can’t supply TWO short forms when two titles appear in a citation/footnote and the (here: book) title has already appeared earlier in the document?

Author, Chapter title, in Book Title. (only the ch., title can be shortened in consecutive appearances; the book title can’t)

Interesting. Not sure this will work though, but I may be misunderstanding.

Suppose you have 2 book sections both of which are cited. Each will be taken by EN to be the first citation of each section. But in each citation, the book title will appear in full. Only in a repeated citation of either book section will the short title go into effect–and that will apply to the title of that section alone.

Perhaps it’s not appropriate editorially speaking to format the second citation with a short form of the book title (the title that both citations share in this case). But that’s what I was aiming to do, since the second full book title seems redundant given its first appearance in the first citation.

Of course, the short form of either citation would be fine: there only the section title will appear (shortened). But that’s not the problem here.

Merci
