How to disable the feature of total item in the view while type the space bar

yaolimumu

Hi, I am the frequent user of quicklook, but the space bar is occupied by the feature of getting total item in the view, Do anybody know how to disable this feature or how to edit it in config editor?

Version : Zotero 7 beta 68.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. The number of items in the view just shows in the right-hand pane when nothing it selected in the items list.

As shown above, The selected item becomes unselected after typing space bar.
And I need to get selected item for previewing file after typing space bar.

This is a standard keyboard navigation feature of the list interface like the one in Zotero. Spacebar allows you to select and deselect items for multiple-item selection (along with Ctrl/Cmd-ArrowUp/ArrowDown to move the focused item). What is quicklook?

@adomasven quicklook is a plugin for previewing file after typing spacebar.

Yeah, that counter doesn't have anything to do with pressing the space bar. That just shows in the right-hand pane when no items are selected, including when you first click on a different library or collection. And you can always deselect the selected item with Cmd/Ctrl-click.

I don't know whether there's a QuickLook plugin that works in Zotero 7, but that's totally unrelated to this.

@dstillman, I write run a script in actions&tags to make quicklook in Zotero 7, refer to: https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-actions-tags/discussions/132#discussioncomment-8755817

Now I find out the item will get selected again if user type space bar twice, Where does zotero get selected item before, Can user get this function or interface?
