I doubt that it matters for the purposes of this message, but I am on RM 10.0.9, 64 bit, and Windows 10 Pro.
I have been working on a project to help another RM user to copy Web tag text into footnotes and into citation names. In the case of footnotes, the Web tag text actually needed to be copied into a particular source template field so that it would then appear in a footnote.
There was no issue copying the Web tag text into the footnote. But something funny happened when I copied the Web tag text into the citation name. Namely, the citation name became a hot link, jumping immediately to the Web page linked to by the Web tag text when I clicked it. All I was trying to do was to select a citation from the main Sources tab. This doesn’t seem like good behavior. I would emphasize that I don’t see this behavior when looking at citations from the Edit Person screen. It is only when looking at citations from the main Sources tab.
I would like to request and recommend an enhancement so that a URL in the citation name field just be treated as text and not be treated has a hot URL link.
All the URL’s I’m talking about started with http:// or https:// My workaround was to remove the http:// or https:// from the citation name so that the citation name just started with the www (or whatever the URL started with). That was a sufficient change to make the citation name no longer be treated by RM as a hot link.
I would also recommend that if any other users decide to use a URL as a citation name when the citation really doesn’t include any information other than a Web tag that you not include http:// or https:// in the citation name until or unless this behavior is changed.
