Hi, everyone.
Since installing Mellel 5, I have to appeal once again for help with this. I open up the 'Insert Citation' dialog box with the keystroke CMD+CTRL+Y, so as to input the page number, BUT hitting OK no longer seems to deliver the citation into the Mellel document as it once did.
Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Re: Inserting citations from Bookends
I have Mellel 5 and Bookends and can't duplicate the problem.
In the Bookends preferences, do you have Mellel 5 selected? That option is called 'word processor' in the general category in Bookends' preferences. If that's set to a now-missing Mellel 4, maybe that's the problem.
Might be worth a look, anyway.
Good luck! (Darke & Freedman, 1997, p. 25)
Yeah, I know, looks snarky, but figured I'd show what I got. Seriously, good luck. No snark-ness intended.

Re: Inserting citations from Bookends
Forgot - there is also a bibliography setting in Mellel's preferences - mine gives the options of Bookends and Sente.
Re: Inserting citations from Bookends
Make sure Bookends is allowed to talk to Mellel. See the fourth last post in this thread:Chris Price wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 6:38 pm hitting OK no longer seems to deliver the citation into the Mellel document as it once did.

Scroll down to the fourth last post and start reading there.

Re: Inserting citations from Bookends
Curious - under Accessiblity I see Bookends but it is not allowed to control my computer.
But command-Y/control-command-Y work. I have to have Bookends open, otherwise command-Y just gets a disappointed beep.
Interesting.

Thank you, Amontillado! The solution was indeed the Bookends - Preferences suggestion.
Much appreciated.
