    Me too, and ctrl+C doesn't work either.

    Same issue here. Also happening with Ctrl+C, can't copy anything in the pdf with the shortcut, only by right-clicking and selecting copy.

    @daniu.de, @pcinque, @serein88, @raffzvieira: Fixed in beta 95 — thanks.

    wao ... didn't know that it works like this here ... great - tested and works!

    since we are talking about the search function: in Zotero 6 there was an animated symbol (like in former times the sandclock symbol but round) that zotero is not finished with the search. That is gone in Zotero 7 but it was quite useful. Gotta get used to not knowing what's going on.

    The Ctrl+Shift+K doesn't work in beta95, win11.
  • dstillman
    @RamonMi: I don't think that's ever done anything in the reader. That works in the library view for historical reasons.
  • RamonMi
    Oh, it's my fault. That works normally in the library view. I don't know this shortcut in the advanced settings is unsupported in the reader tab.
    However, is it necessary to set an additional shortcut for quick search since the Ctrl+F shortcut supports library and reader view?

    @daniu.de: We've added a spinner in beta 96.
