Creating notes from tags

lawacademy

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to 'Add notes from annotations' but only with respect to individually tagged annotations?

For instance, if I highlight a quote from a PDF and add a tag to that annotation, is there a way to create a note from all the annotations in that PDF with that tag?

At the moment, the 'Add note from Annotations' feature is great but I'm trying to find a way to easily organise my annotations into specific subject tags and for those to be separated into individual notes.

Hopefully this makes sense!

First, the simple but manual solution: You can open the PDF in reader and create an empty item note from the right side notes menu. Then choose the tag you would like to filter from the annotations view on the left side, select one annotation with left click then use Ctrl+A to select all annotations with the chosen tag, right click on any one of the annotations and click add to note option.

Second, you could use Better Notes for Zotero plugin with a suitable template.

Third, you could use Actions and Tags for Zotero plugin with a suitable script.

Fourth, you could use an advanced search filtering the annotations with a certain tag.
