Under Consideration

Scrivener is a writing suite that many of us think provide a better way of organising material and structuring ideas than Word. It is a genuine writer's tool and is gaining increasing adaptation and support by academics. https://www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener/overview

Citavi 5 had a workaround that could be used with it. Citavi 6 does not. Citavi's current position is:

"We understand that Scrivener is an important part of your workflow and that it has worked with Citavi 5.

The current idea could be to offer an additional add-in for Scrivener.

However, we are still waiting for more reactions on the topic from other users."

In other words - if you want Citavi to do this, vote for this idea.

Citavi: as Jen says today that the current idea is to offer an additional add-in, please can you not set the status of this idea as "declined", but "under consideration"? At least until you see if it gets some support? :) Many thanks!

Elin

Dear developers! Are there any news on the subject? Do you plan to make the add-on for Citavi or some other way to use Citavi with Scrivener?

Hello Sebastian,

is there a way of migrating from Citavi 6 back to Citavi 5? For me, using Scrivener is definitely more important than the cloud functions of Citavi, which btw are regularly causing errors and I´m already working on a local project.

Best regards,

Markus

Thanks a lot, it worked! Only the knowledge items, such as snapshots from pdf attachments, cannot be shown in the preview pane anymore. It shows the message "Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040104", and for every knowledge item I would have to click at the link symbol to jump to the respective reference and open its pdf attachment. Is the knowledge item preview a function that citavi 5 did not have?

Hi Sebastian,

As you see 54 votes are for an add-on. Why are you still not interested in it?

Best regards,

Max

Ist dieser Konvertierungsprozess verlustfrei?

Hallo,

nein, die in Citavi 6 neu hinzugekommenen Felder (Übersetzer, Affiliation, ...) werden nicht übernommen.

Viele Grüße
