Thanks for X3 and the possibility to have a library in each section - I just used it for an edited book, where several authors had to fill in the gaps in their bibliography parts of the book.
Thanks for myoshigi for repeating the Output Style highlighting feature request. I still would highly appreciate it to be added to the next version!
I have another quite difficult question regarding an extension to EndNote.
Request # 1
I have a lot of colleagues and I need it myself, who write in German/English and use Non-German/Non-English literature, esp. Russian, Georgian, Armenian etc. When you write in German and want to use some russian books, you have 3 types of titles (and if it is a book section - book title as well, etc.): the russian original, a scientific transcription/transliteration of the russian letters and a german translation. If you want to publish the same text in English, you need a 4th field for the english translation.
Right now I am trying to solve this problem using translated author and a custom field - [german] translation, which works more or less, but is not very smooth.
I would like to suggest to kind of combine entries, which are just in another language, maybe via a special field. So a full set of fields would be available in each language and via the output style i can choose, which field from which language version should be used in a special case.
Example: We used in the footnote: [transcribed] Author, [German] Title, p.
In the bibliography at the end of the book: [transcribed] Author, [transcribed] Title, ([transcribed] Author, [German] Title)
I hope you understand, what I am trying to achieve. If not, feel free to contact me or ask, I would be happy to help!
Request #2
In the Citations, Footnotes and Bibliography you can choose, how you want Author to appear: With initials, without etc. In my Bibliography I have to show, how a special reference is cited in the footnote. Since I use only “Smith/Doe” in the footnote, but “Smith, J./Doe, J.” in the bibliography, all my authors are where I give an example on how I cited them appear with initials, although I haven’t used them.
It would be great, if I could somehow influence this.
Thanks a lot!
