Quick = [your chosen command chain] = specific compiler + specific viewer Compile = specific compiler View = specific viewer I'm just not sure, when and where the 'smart logic' is applied additionally (pre-compile, internal-pre-compile, conditionally-recompile-bibliography, recompile-bibliography) > > It is most easy to find something in this configuration.

But in that sense, logic grouping is even more important than having the most often used items at the top. |
