This feature has multiple choices of source available, but lacks one very desirable selection—Add a single open resource. Selected text will not work because it adds page numbers. I may not actually consult every resource in my layout which renders "all open resources" problematic.

    Add a single open resource. Selected text will not work because it adds page numbers.

    If you have multiple tiles, you would like the citation of the "active" resource? But i'm not sure how citation of selected text would differ if page numbers is part of the citation style?

    EDIT: I see it is the difference between an article citation ("selected text") and a general citation.

    When I added a screenshot to show what I was seeking, I noticed that the Bibliography style was set to APA rather than my normal Turabian. Do not remember making that change, but in Turabian, it added an entry for the resource. When the selected text is an article in an updated journal, the Bibliography correctly references the article, including page range. Since I don't know anything about APA style, I will edit the title of the thread to resolved [:D]
