  • To expand on this a bit, I would like to be able to search for a word in a long note while the note is in the viewer on the right side of the screen without having to generate a report to do it. Is that possible?
  • Dan Stillman and erazlogo, at the risk of being redundant, could I ask once again: "Considering the age of this forum and the ticket meant to address this feature, could you comment on the priority level of such an addition? I understand, …
  • I assume you mean Dan Stillman. Anything to add Dan?
  • erazlogo, Indeed it would, considering the age of this forum and the ticket meant to address this feature, could you comment on the priority level of such an addition? I understand, of course, that promising ETA on these kind of things is p…
  • "Hide non-matching items" has not yet been implemented, but, as you probably know, the behavior of Select All has been changed to address your other, related request. Thanks Dan, Perhaps you can offer me an alternative method for approaching …
  • Looking at the most recent update for Zotero, it does not seem that the ability to view notes matching search or tag criteria in Zotero without having to produce a report (the subject of this thread) has been included. Is this correct, are we still…
  • It seems that one way around this problem (which is now over a year in the fixing) would be an option to highlight (select) the searched-for items, such as notes with a particular tag in them, which are already in bold in the list, as a group, rathe…
  • Dan, Seems a little more time was all it needed. Since there was no indicator that a process was in process, I just assumed it was completed when the icon appeared on the desktop. Thanks again, David
  • erazlogo Not sure--probably after synchronization and hierarchical item types are implemented. Well, we've had three updates since this discussion ended: am I right in thinking that the tickets meant to resolve the parent child viewing is…
  • Two things have happened. First, the import just stopped after about 15 minutes, the dated import file folder remained under my library, but with no files in it at all, only a message in the window that said an error had occurred. Second, Firefox …
  • I have been trying to move a 3,500 file library from Scribe to Zotero. Having failed a few times, I limited my Scribe export to a few hundred files and successfully imported them into Zotero. However, when I tried to export and then import about 1…
  • Thanks Dan. I'm eager to switch to Zotero, but have to wait until the interface can display notes on their own with reasonable sorting capabilities as well as generate reports of the same nature. Am I correct in thinking there is a ticket pending …
  • I have noticed this addition to the new versions of Zotero "Output full content of notes in bibliography-mode Quick Copy if only copying notes; otherwise, exclude notes from generated bibliography" Does this solve the problem presented in …
  • erazlogo Now that the ticket is added, when can we expect this sort of feature to be available?
  • erazlogo Can you offer any idea as to when such a ticket will bare fruit?
  • This problem is handled quite straight forwardly in Scribe: in the advanced search box you have a set of check boxes that serve to limit the search to particular item types, including source, note, match, tagged, untagged, and a number of others. …
  • Is it possible, then, to perform a search for a word in the text of your notes and then take all the actual matches and assign a tag to them?
  • erazlogo That did the trick. I would, however, like to be able to view just my notes in Zotero (as well as produce printable lists without all that configuration). In fact, I would say that, despite all the benefits of Zotero, this option being …
  • TJOwens I did try this report making and, having changed the extensions, found that the notes were still grouped by source, even though the sources no longer appeared in the list.
