Note Number Reference command
Use this dialog to insert or edit a cross-referenced note number in your CaseView document. To edit a note number quickly, double-click the note number in the document. Note numbers are indicated by a blue font.
Cross-reference list
A listing of the cross-references used for this location is shown. Multiple cross-references can be added to the same location.
Reference
Represents the cross-reference identifier. The maximum length for an identifier is 30 characters.
Condition
Represents the hide condition.
Removable
Specifies if the user in the Form Mode can remove this cross-reference. (The "Can be removed from Form Mode" box is checked.)
Expressed
Specifies whether the Note number is fully expressed or not.
New
Click New to create a new cross-reference. Multiple cross-references can be added to the same location.
Tip
-
Display only text for button cells cannot be used for a note number cross-references.
Delete
To delete a cross-reference from the Cross-reference list, select the cross-reference and then click Delete.
Cross-reference item
Cross-reference from
Type or select the cross-reference identifier of the note number you want to cross-reference.
Reference skip condition
In addition to skipping references to notes using the Add/ remove note number dialog, you can tell CaseView to remove a note from a cross-reference under specific conditions. For example, you can enter a condition that skips the reference if there is a net loss. Enter a logical condition to control when the note is not to be printed.
If it is the only note referenced, the entire cross-reference will be skipped.
Can be removed from Form Mode
Select this option to enable a user in the Form Mode (with or without editing enabled) to remove a note from the cross-reference. Please note, the option to Permit modification in Form mode must also be selected. From Form Mode or Form Mode with Enabled Editing, right-click on the cross-reference and select Modify Note References.
Notes that cannot be removed are grayed out in the dialog. Once note references are removed in the Form Mode, they cannot be added back.
Fully expressed reference
Select to allow sub reference notes to be referenced including the formatting of their parent references. For example if you select this option, a note called "a" under the note called "1" will appear as 1a in the note reference.
Properties
Hide unreferenced cross-references in Form Mode
Select to hide any cross-references that are not actually used in the document when you are in Form Mode.
Include any before and end text from referenced notes
Select to have any text associated with the referenced notes, such as "Note 2", also display when cross-referenced.
Show Note Identifiers
Select this option to show identifiers for the notes.
Quick Drilldown to Note Number
Select to make the note number reference interactive. Clicking the reference will open the note.
Permit modification in Form Mode
Select this option to permit the user to add or remove note numbers from the cross-reference by right-clicking the note number. If all the notes referenced are removed, the entire cross-reference will be hidden. This is valuable to use when the user links in new notes from a Knowledge library and needs to be able to cross-reference them.
If the note is modifiable the symbol {#N} will appear red in the Form Mode (with or without editing enabled).
Note
-
It is also necessary to enable editing in the paragraph or section properties to allow users to fully edit the note number reference in Form mode with Editing Enabled. Once this is configured to allow editing, an option will appear in the context menu when right-clicking on the reference labelled Edit Note Number Reference. The full contents of the dialog described in this topic will be made available to the user.
Category available in Form Mode
If you have assigned notes to categories, specify the appropriate category for the cross-reference.
When entering note numbers, the designer can specify to which category certain notes belong. When determining rights in the Form Mode (with or without editing enabled), the designer can specify one category or all categories for modification.
Format
Set options to format the note number.
Note: CaseView automatically detects the number of cross-references being used and displays the plural settings when there are multiple cross references and the singular settings if there is only one note cross-reference.
Common
The drop-down list lets you select from some common numbering formats. Select Custom to create a unique prefix or suffix for the note number.
Singular
Allows the user to set the format for single note numbers.
Before
Represents the prefix to the note number, for example, "Note ". If selecting Custom, enter a custom prefix. If desired, click the to enter a calculation for the format.
End
Represents the suffix to the note number, for example ".". If selecting Custom, enter a custom suffix. If desired, click the to enter a calculation for the format.
This example would display as "Note 2" in the document.
Plural

Before
Represents the prefix to the note number, for example "Note: ". If selecting Custom, enter a custom prefix. If desired, click the to enter a calculation for the format.
Between
Represents symbols or text in the middle of the cross-reference, for example ", ". If selecting Custom, type the applicable text. If desired, click the to enter a calculation for the format.
Before last entry
Represents the prefix to the final note number, for example " and ". If desired, click the to enter a calculation for the format.
End
Represents the suffix to the note number, for example ".". If selecting Custom, enter a custom suffix. If desired, click the to enter a calculation for the format.
This example would display as "Note 2, 3 and 4" in the document.
