Why not implementing a small detail:
drag and drop off a file imports it; drag and drop with holding cmd or ctrl could create a link toward the file instead.
It would be useful for people who want to keep their pdf in separated folders… -

i second!
and maybe drag with holding 'shift' to move the file into Zotero (delete from the original place) -

I'd like something similar for grabbing pdf's off of web-sites. At the moment drag and drop imports them as snapshots. Could we have an option with cmd or ctrl to import them as files.

There's a ticket for this.I'd like something similar for grabbing pdf's off of web-sites. At the moment drag and drop imports them as snapshots. Could we have an option with cmd or ctrl to import them as files.
Jon: I addressed that on another thread. -

I see that this is low-priority on the ticket page. Are there any plans for this feature to be incorporated soon though? It's a minor irritant to open a dialogue box every time you wanna add a link; nevertheless, enabling users to select multiple items, such pdf's or word documents or pictures (anything research-related that you might want to associate with a particular biblio item, e.g.), and drag them into Zotero *without* simply copying them to a Zotero directory would be super-useful. Thx in advance. -

Being new to Zotero, I'm comparing it to Mendeley-if not iTunes; this discussion seems to be about those with large collections in many appropriately-named folders not being able to automatically import and extract metadata from preexisting folders-that would seem to be a high priority as its the first and only major problem I ran in to; is there a fix planned for this issue or no?
