second-field-align problem

schuessi

I have a problem with aligning the bibliography.
I know about the command second-field-align should be set to true or flush (in 1.0).

Well if i create bibliography, this seem to have no effect and i get

[1] blablabla
blablabla

instead of

[1] blablabla
___blabla

Setting the command to "margin" works, but thats not what i need ;)
Ifi change the style in word and then change it back, it works, but is not saved, saying next time i open the document, the lines are not aligned again.

here is the csl-code of my style, maybe somebody can help me.

<bibliography>


<option name="second-field-align" value="flush"/>
<option name="entry-spacing" value="0"/>


<layout suffix=".">

<option name="et-al-min" value="11"/>

<option name="et-al-use-first" value="10"/>


<text variable="citation-number" prefix="[" suffix="]"/>

<text macro="author" prefix="" suffix=", "/>

<choose>

<if type="book">

<group delimiter=", ">

<text variable="title" text-case="title" font-style="italic"/>

<text macro="publisher"/>
<text macro="year-date"/>


</group>

</if>

<else-if type="chapter">

<group delimiter=", ">
<group delimiter=" ">

<text term="in" text-case="lowercase"/>


<text variable="container-title" form="short" text-case="title" font-style="italic"/>

<text macro="editor" prefix="(" suffix=")"/>

</group>


<text macro="publisher" />

<text macro="year-date"/>

<group delimiter=" ">

<text macro="pages"/>

</group>

</group>

</else-if>

<else-if type="patent">

<group delimiter=", ">

<text variable="title" text-case="title" font-style="italic"/>

<text macro="year-date"/>

<text variable="number" prefix="Patent "/>

</group>

</else-if>

<else-if type="thesis">

<group delimiter=", ">

<text variable="title" text-case="title" />

<text variable="genre"/>

<text variable="publisher"/>

<text macro="year-date"/>

</group>


</else-if>

<else-if type="webpage">

<group delimiter=", ">

<text variable="title" quotes="true"/>

<text macro="access"/>


<text macro="year-date"/>

</group>

</else-if>

<else>

<group delimiter=" ">

<text variable="container-title" form="short" font-style="italic"/>

<group delimiter=", ">

<text macro="year-date"/>

<group>

<text variable="volume" font-style="italic"/>


</group>
<text variable="page" form="short"/>

</group>

</group>

<text macro="access" prefix=", "/>

</else>

</choose>

</layout>

</bibliography>

</style>

Which version of Zotero are you using? Also note that the style you copy/pasted above is CSL 0.8.1, not 1.0.

schuessi

I'm using 2.1 RC3 now...yes the style is old, but even if i set the value to "true" wich should be for CSL 0.8 it dosent work

As an immediate fix, you should be able to adjust the settings of the style applied to the bibliography elements (in the word processor).

schuessi

I'm sorry, but what settings are you talking about? :(

adamsmith

In both Word and Ooo the bibliography section is assigned as "style" (as in: layout) - you can adjust those - the instructions here apply, though the problem isn't the same:
http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/word_default_font

edit: to be precise, the general instructions apply, but the style you should be modifying isn't default, but bibliography (or so).

schuessi

I guess thats the problem...in my document there is not such a style. But if creating a new word document, then this style can be found.

Thx for your help

adamsmith

that's a document you converted from Zotero 2.0x to 2.1?
That could indicate an issue that we should at least be aware of.

schuessi

the document was started in 2.1 beta...but it seems to work fine now.

Just to update this, I recently ran into this problem. Same fix still works. Hit style pane, modify bibliography style, paragraph. Then under indentation, the value for left and right should be 0, and under special, choose hanging and then adjust the value as needed.
