Zotero 7 Beta: Colors of tags within annotated PDFs aren't shown in main view

sojusnik

If you create an annotation within an attached PDF by highlighting text and then adding a tag to this annotation and this tag has an assigned color, then you won't see the color of this tag (as a colored small circle in the new and absolutely gorgeous redesign of Zotero) beside the PDFs name in the main view.

Same goes for an attached snapshot and I guess for EPUBs.

Happens on Ubuntu 23.10 with 7.0.0-beta.55+9151fb355.

This is still happening with the latest 7.0.0-beta.73+398454f85, which is quite confusing, due to inconsistency, since you scan for items in the main view that have the coloured circle and often miss the PDFs and snapshots with the corresponding tags, while the main entries and notes do have them. At least all items, including the PDFs and snapshots, are not greyed out when filtering for a tag, but because some items have the coloured circle and others don't, it's not as helpful as it could have been.

Compared to the color in the PDF Reader:

Or do you expect to see the colored circle directly in the center pane (Items Tree), next to the PDF attachment?

I'm speaking about the main view of Zotero, the centre pane:

The PDF of the Vitamin D3 paper contains an annotation with the tag "machen", which is coloured as blue, but its filled circle before the PDF is missing in the main view:

Same goes for the Vitamin C paper:

And the snapshot of a webpage:

BTW, I didn't even notice that the colour of the tag isn't applied in the sidebar of an item, see your first picture, which isn't critical, but still would be helpful to have when quickly skimming through the sidebar.

We'll fix it — thanks.
