I appreciate that changes to word make this difficult for developers. I believe this is a bug reintroduced recently. Yeah, I wrote my PhD thesis with Zotero and I believe at that time this issue had been already addressed. You can use a Macro yourself to accept all tracked changes in Fields in one go (so your workflow would be to use this macro to accept field changes, then proceed with the rest of your review). The Zotero developers have and continue to look into ways to make it work more nicely with Track Changes, but it is a very difficult problem to solve (not least which because it’s not clear that disabling tracking is the desired behavior). This is even an issue for Word’s native (terrible) bibliography function and the Word “Compatibilty Mode” feature. That said, it is really difficult for any Word Add-in (Zotero, Endnote, Mendeley, etc.) to interact with track changes, because the controls for this have changed many times over the versions. It is a quite fast habit to develop to quickly click accept twice when field codes pop up. I wrote a 900 page dissertation, dozens of articles, and a 500 page book using Zotero. The BMS is doing its job facilitating keeping track of citation number changes and the word processor is doing its job by marking the changes.Īll my remarks notwithstanding, if there is a way to avoid these changes being flagged, I would be pleased to have a way around this.

That way the colleague / supervisor can make changes and comments without affecting my original work and I can then easily see the comments and incorporate them into my working copy.Īlthough I haven't verified this recently, this "problem" occurs with other bib management software (BMS) such as EndNote and Mandeley. I turn on track changes in the copy I forward to my colleague. The way I handle this is to always share a copy of my working document that has all field codes removed. I suppose that you are sharing your document with a colleague or a supervisor.

Zotero will automatically update the manuscript to reflect the insertion of the new reference and the reference numbers will change. Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.In your post on another thread it appeared to me that you were complaining that when you entered a new reference (before the end of your document while using a numbered style such as Vancouver) and the reference numbers updated you object to track changes marking the updated numbers being flagged as changes. The cross-reference will correctly update the heading number to match the outline-numbered heading that the cross-reference references. Right-click the cross-reference link, and then click Update Field. Locate and then select the bookmark name that matches the bookmark name that you noted in step 1.Ĭlick Add. In the Bookmark dialog box, click to select the Hidden bookmarks check box. On the Insert tab, in the Links group, click Bookmark. Locate and select the outline numbered heading to which the cross-reference should point. The bookmark name begins with the following string: Note the bookmark name for the cross-reference. The field code is displayed for the REF field for the cross-reference. Select the broken cross-reference, and then press Alt+F9. To work around this problem, follow these steps:

When you update the cross-reference link, the link is not updated. When you split the heading, the bookmark does not move. This problem occurs because, when you create a cross-reference link, a hidden bookmark is created at the beginning of the heading. Instead, the cross-reference link references the new heading. In this scenario, the cross-reference link is not updated to reference the original heading.
