Right panel in the PDF reader displays info for wrong item when opening additional tabs

ingmar93 · March 8, 2023

Like I wrote in the title, when I have multiple PDFs open in tabs and open an additional tab, the info panel is out of sync with the current item, so to speak.

This can lead to confusion, metadata errors and tags being applied to the wrong file, etc.

Edit: This is due to the plugin Zotero Night. Disabling it fixes the issue.

To get the panel to match the current PDF, I have to switch to another tab and then back to the current tab, at which point it will match.

Is the zotero-night add-on installed? https://github.com/tefkah/zotero-night/issues/88

@poettli Yes... Just tried to disable the plugin, and the bug disappeared and Zotero behaves as expected. Thanks for the info! Guess I'll keep it disabled until that bug is addressed.

I won't put to much hope into this bug being addressed anytime soon. Also, could you kindly edit the title, as it is not a zotero bug
