Bug: Empty title after mass import via "add file" symbol

Hello,

after I added many files via the "add file" symbol, all the (standalone) attachments have a correct file name, but empty title and it seems to be not possible to set it by a command to something else, so that I have just an 200 items list of no-title entries which is confusingly unpleasant.
When I only add single items, it seems to work and a title is generated (yet it would be nice to have that auto generated title to be configurable, but at least one gets a little cue on what that file is about).
Is there a possibility to set the title by a script/function inside zotero to e.g. the file name without extension or an auto-OCRed title or whatever else might be scriptable?

    First, note that you're on an outdated version of Zotero. You should be running at least 9.0.6, and now Zotero 10 is available. There's no reason you should be on an early Zotero 9 version.

    Can you 1) upgrade to Zotero 10 and 2) provide exact steps to reproduce? If I add multiple files at once via Add File, I get standalone attachments with titles that are the filenames without the extension, the same as for a single file.

    You can change an attachment title from the Attachment Info section of the item pane after clicking on the attachment.
