Add a "view as BibTeX" option before importing an entry from the citation relation tab #11826

Open HoussemNasri opened 1 week ago

HoussemNasri commented 1 week ago

When importing entries from the citation relation tab, a preview of entries to import is displayed, but it doesn't include all the information. It would be useful to click a button and display a dialog showing the full BibTeX of that entry.

Motivation

Could be useful for deciding whether to import a "duplicate" (record that may contain new data about an existing entry)

Is this a satisfactory solution? img1 img2

The UI looks good so far. Please open a draft pull request so we can begin reviewing the code changes.

The code doesn't need to be complete before the review starts. It's always better to catch potential issues early, as fixing them is easier before they compound.
