I am using class beamer to prepare scientific presentation. The myrefernces.bib is included using \addbibresource{}. In one slide, one citation is used twice using \footcite{}. The same citation appears twice in the bottom of the slide also with different numbers. How to avoid this and make the citation appear with same number in the slide as well as through out presentation to avoid confusion.
Thanks in advance.
manual workaround:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
#book{knuth,
author = {Knuth, Donald E.},
title = {The {\TeX} book},
date = 1984,
maintitle = {Computers \& Typesetting},
volume = {A},
publisher = {Addison-Wesley},
location = {Reading, Mass.},
langid = {english},
langidopts = {variant=american},
sortyear = {1984-1},
sorttitle = {Computers & Typesetting A},
indexsorttitle= {The TeXbook},
indextitle = {\protect\TeX book, The},
shorttitle = {\TeX book}
}
\end{filecontents*}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}

for a university paper I have to write an essay. The professor has percise instructions how to cite. For monograph books, he wants the author and the title in the footnotes.
I tried to use biblatex for this, but could not manage to get it to work
My minimal reproducible example is:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\title{test}
\usepackage[style=authoryear,maxcitenames=2,maxbibnames=99, uniquename=false]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{references.bib}
\setcounter{biburlnumpenalty}{100}
\setcounter{biburlucpenalty}{100}
\setcounter{biburllcpenalty}{100}
\DefineBibliographyStrings{ngerman}{
andothers = {{et\,al\adddot}},
}
\DeclareNameAlias{sortname}{family-given}
\DeclareFieldFormat
[article,inbook,incollection,inproceedings,patent,thesis,unpublished]
{title}{#1\isdot}
\renewbibmacro{in:}{%
\ifentrytype{article}{}{\printtext{\bibstring{in}\intitlepunct}}}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section{Introduction}
This is a minimal reproducible example. \footcite{adams1995hitchhiker}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
which outputs:
footnote image
Now i want to add the title of the book too (in this case The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) in the footnote
Any idea how to implement this?
It sounds as if the authortitle style would be closer to your requirements:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\title{test}
\usepackage[style=authortitle,maxcitenames=2,maxbibnames=99, uniquename=false]{biblatex}
\begin{filecontents*}[overwrite]{\jobname.bib}

maintitle = {Computers \& Typesetting},
volume = {A},
publisher = {Addison-Wesley},
location = {Reading, Mass.},
langid = {english},
langidopts = {variant=american},
sortyear = {1984-1},
sorttitle = {Computers & Typesetting A},
indexsorttitle= {The TeXbook},
indextitle = {\protect\TeX book, The},
shorttitle = {\TeX book}
}
\end{filecontents*}

I would like to show the number in front of the full inline citation generated by \bibentry from the bibentry package, matching the one that appears in the bibliography.
In the following MWE, this would correspond to a [2] in front of the indented \bibentry. How would I do that?
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{bibentry}
\begin{filecontents}{test.bib}
#misc{Emma,
author = "Emma",
title = "Emma's publication",
year = "2001" }
#misc{Martha,
author = "Martha",
title = "Interesting thoughts",
year = "2003" }
#misc{Paul,
author = "Paul",
title = "Paul's essay",
year = "2000" }
\end{filecontents}
\begin{document}
\nobibliography*
\noindent
This is a usual reference~\cite{Emma}.
Now I'm referring to\\[5pt]
\indent \bibentry{Martha}.\\[5pt]
The following is again a normal reference~\cite{Paul}.
\bibliography{test}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\end{document}
This image shows the output of the above MWE
I guess bibentry doesn't allow that, one possible solution is to define a new command (or redefine \bibentry) as a \cite and \bibentry.
Some thing like that:
\let\oldbibentry\bibentry
\renewcommand{\bibentry}[1]{\cite{#1} \oldbibentry{#1}}
So if we try this code:
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{bibentry}
% redefine the bibentry command as cite then bibentry
\let\oldbibentry\bibentry
\renewcommand{\bibentry}[1]{\cite{#1} \oldbibentry{#1}}
\begin{filecontents}{test.bib}
#misc{Emma,
author = "Emma",
title = "Emma's publication",
year = "2001" }
#misc{Martha,
author = "Martha",
title = "Interesting thoughts",
year = "2003" }
#misc{Paul,
author = "Paul",
title = "Paul's essay",
year = "2000" }
\end{filecontents}
\nobibliography*
\begin{document}
\noindent
This is a usual reference~\cite{Emma}.
Now I'm referring to\\[5pt]
\indent \bibentry{Martha}.\\[5pt]
The following is again a normal reference~\cite{Paul}.
\bibliography{test}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\end{document}
it should produce:
I have a reference file (bib file) I want to convert it as
\bibitem[\protect\citeauthoryear{Allen C.W.}{1973}] {b1} Allen C.W., 1973,
Astrophysical quantities, ${3^{rd}}$ ed. (Athlone Press, London)
when I use
\nocite{*}
\bibliographystyle{apalike}
\bibliography{bibfile}
Output ppl file as
\bibitem[Allen, 1973]{allen1973astrophysical}
Allen, C.~W. (1973).
Combining natbib with the newapa style gives something similar:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
#BOOK{1973asqu.book.....A,
author = {{Allen}, C.~W.},
title = "{Astrophysical quantities}",
keywords = {ASTROPHYSICS, ASTRONOMICAL CONSTANTS, TABLES, HANDBOOKS},
booktitle = {London: University of London, Athlone Press, |c1973, 3rd ed.},
year = 1973,
adsurl = {https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1973asqu.book.....A},
adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}
}
\end{filecontents*}
\usepackage{natbib}
\begin{document}
\cite{1973asqu.book.....A}
\bibliographystyle{newapa}
\bibliography{\jobname}
\end{document}
Resulting .bbl file:
\begin{thebibliography}{}
\bibitem[\protect\citeauthoryear{{Allen}}{{Allen}}{1973}]{1973asqu.book.....A}
{Allen}, C.~W. (1973).
\newblock {\em {Astrophysical quantities}}.
\end{thebibliography}
I'm making a poster through beamer and found a problem with my bibliography style. I want my references to use the full horizontal space available in the poster, like:
(1) Authors. Title. Journal.
But instead of that, every reference get breaked in 3 lines as:
(1) Authors
Title
Journal
Example
Here's the bibliography code I've been using:
\begin{block}{References}
\small
\bibliographystyle{sbc}
\bibliography{referencias.bib}
\end{block}
The line breaks can be avoided by setting the bibliography templates like this:
\setbeamertemplate{bibliography entry article}{}
\setbeamertemplate{bibliography entry title}{}
\setbeamertemplate{bibliography entry location}{}
\setbeamertemplate{bibliography entry note}{}
MWE:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
#book{knuth,
author = {Knuth, Donald E.},
title = {The {\TeX} book},
date = 1984,

langid = {english},

}
\end{filecontents*}
\setbeamertemplate{bibliography entry article}{}
\setbeamertemplate{bibliography entry title}{}

\begin{document}

I have a problem with reference style in LaTeX.
I use:
\usepackage[backend=bibtex,style=authoryear]{biblatex} %
But when I look at the references, the text is not inside parentheses.
For example:
,reviewed in Roy et al. 2010
should be
,reviewed in (Roy et al. 2010)
All bibliography package have a mean to either add or not parenthesis to a citation, depending on context.
Indeed, generally it is undesirable to have all citations bracketted.
For instance, if you say "see \cite{foobar}", you probably want "see (Foobar 1999)". But in a phrase like "(\cite{foobar} also has interesting examples)", you do not want parenthesis, as "((Foobar 1999) also ...)" looks ugly and is not advised in standard typographic rules. Probably "(Foobar 1999 also has ...)" is prefered.
For this reason, in vanilla bibtex, you have \cite (without parenthesis) and \citep (with parenthesis).
In biblatex, you can do the same. Instead of using \cite, use \parencite to get citations with parenthesis.
Another approach to add parenthesis around the citations is to change the definition of the \cite macro:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
#book{knuth,
author = {Knuth, Donald E.},
title = {The {\TeX} book},
date = 1984,
maintitle = {Computers \& Typesetting},

location = {Reading, Mass.},
langid = {english},
langidopts = {variant=american},
sortyear = {1984-1},
sorttitle = {Computers & Typesetting A},
indexsorttitle= {The TeXbook},
indextitle = {\protect\TeX book, The},
shorttitle = {\TeX book}
}
#article{einstein,
author = {Einstein, A.},
