Citation Question - Dictionary articles

I'm running 5.1 SR-1, so I'm using the new citation engine, if I understand things correctly. For the most part, it seems to work better than it has in the past for me, though the footnotes that get pasted into my Word doc do not take on the style that footnotes are supposed to have (and selecting different paste options doesn't fix that).

I thought I had read a forum message quite a while back that support for citations of articles was going to be added. I couldn't find the thread, so maybe my memory is wrong or I misread it originally. Basically I'm wondering if the current citation engine is supposed to be able to render a citation for a dictionary or journal article. I haven't found a way to make it work for dictionary articles. I'll be trying journal articles this evening.

Thanks much,

Donnie

When you have selected the article of interest, flip to the Information page to find an article citation.

Here's one for National & Political Identity in AYBD. I can't say how many other resources have this feature, though.

Thanks, Dave. If it's a resource-based feature, I'll have to pay attention to that.

If you paste an article into Word you get the article citation (provided you allow citations to be copied in Program Settings).

OK. I see the behavior in AYBD, but not in ISBE (newer edition) or in New Dictionary of Biblical Theology.

Is there any info in a resource's metadata which indicates if it supports article citations?

Thanks again,

Not in metadata. AFAIK, only in Resource Information as per my image above e.g. ISBE 1915 shows an Article Citation.
