Hiding or reordering fields or shrinking fonts?
Author: Alan Nonymous    Posted: Thu, 24 Apr 2003 18:08:34 +0000
Even maximised on my 17" screen each of my references is at least two screens long, so if I want to scan through a bunch of selected references at once - particularly if I want to look at the notes or keyword fields which are always on the second page I end up scrolling up and down each time. Is there any way to re-order fields in EN5? Or shrink the font? Or page back and forth between records while continuing to look at the second "page" of each record? P.s. Count me among the aggrieved people who would like to be able to move his modified reference types more easily between machines (I suspect the public machines I have access to at university would not allow me to modify their registries!) _________________________________________________________________ Worried what your kids see online?

Hi there -- I've encountered this as well -- here is what I have done: One -- Setup the main library view to include "Keywords" in the fifth column (I use a unified keyword system that makes them easier to see this way, but may not be the best solution in all cases). You can change this through the "Sorting" option, I think, in preferences (going off of memory here) Two -- You can use Control-PageDown to scroll through the records at whatever field -- so if you're in the 'keywords' field, hit control-pagedown and you'll be taken to the next record, at the 'keywords' field. Only drawback is, sometimes you can't see the name/title of what record you are on. Not exactly the most satisfying solutions, but good workarounds...

In EndNote 5, select (from the menu) Edit -> Preferences... -> Display Fonts and make your changes as required. You may also widen the window for displaying individual references. Each field full of text would then require fewer lines. If it is overridingly important to you to read long records, you may also set your graphics card and monitor to a higher resolution, assuming this is possible on your machine. -- Håkon /> > -----Original Message----- > From: Alan Nonymous /> > Sent: 24. april 2003 20:09 > To: /> > Subject: Hiding or reordering fields or shrinking fonts? > > > Even maximised on my 17" screen each of my references is at least two > screens long, so if I want to scan through a bunch of > selected references at > > once - particularly if I want to look at the notes or keyword > fields which > are always on the second page I end up scrolling up and down > each time.
