Copying from PDF into Zotero note (formatting)

Hello,

I use Zotero as my PDF reader and also use the notes function to write summaries of articles. Sometimes I will copy a quote a quote from the PDF and paste it directly into the note. Zotero automatically adds quotation marks, citation and page number.

However, the quotations are always enclosed by "double quote marks" but being in the UK, I need to use 'single quote marks'. Is there a way to change this?

I have already checked that my languages are set to English UK in both preferences and 'Create Bibliography from item' options.

Thanks!

    Looks like you can only change the order of things, the color, and tags, at least with the Advanced Config Editor.

    E.g. I can change the order by changing extensions.zotero.annotations.noteTemplates.highlight from "

    {{highlight}} {{citation}} {{comment}}

    " to "{{comment}} {{citation}}" (I didn't want the par so I took out

    as well.

    It looks like these {{comment}} macro is hard coded for the double quotation marks, though.
