Creator names drop-down list
Manually editing creator names is not recommended as a standard workflow in Zotero. Sometimes it's useful to edit these fields, however. Inserting names from the drop-down list is still possible in 7.0.11 but all parts of a name go to the last-name field. There was a more convenient solution before. I suppose this is a bug. Thank you for fixing it.
Description of steps to reproduce:
1. Start Zotero.
2. In My Library, click an existing item.
3. Add another creator by clicking the + sign on the right.
4. For the added creator, click the "last name" field and insert J.
5. From the drop-down list, select "Jabbari, Shahin".
6. The complete name is inserted into the "last name" field. The "first name" field is still empty.
And can you reproduce this in Troubleshooting Mode (Help → "Restart in Troubleshooting Mode…”), which temporarily disables all plugins?
Step 5: In the drop-down list, click on "Jabbari, Shahin" to select this name.
6. The complete name is inserted into the "last name" field. The "first name" field is still empty.
Before 7.0.11, only the last name (e.g., Jabbari) went into the "last name" field, the comma and the space were omitted, and the first name (e.g., Shahin) went into the "first name" field.
