Description Sten Heinze 2019-04-03 18:11:39 UTC
I would like to have a way to group publications based on keywords, tags, colors, or any other filter criteria. I cannot find any way to do this, so I am proposing it as a wishlist item.

Grouping/filtering would only act on a particular file, so I'd suggest to display it with the open files list, e.g. as sub-elements or tree.

(Also can we move the statistics, file settings, and list of variables to be file-specific elements, too?)

Thanks for a great KBibTex!

Comment 1 Thomas Fischer 2020-07-09 13:07:00 UTC
BibTeX is inherently a linear file format and KBibTeX is built around the same structure. Imposing another structure/visualization on top of that would break a number of built-in assumptions.
I will have to ponder about how to address this request ...

Those are file-specific settings. The data shown in those three tabs updates when you change the currently open file. If that is not happening, it is a bug.
