Upgrade StorageFeature Request: Option to Highlight/Color the Title Row in My Library
Hello Zotero Team,
First of all, thank you for developing such an incredible and essential tool for researchers.
I would like to submit a feature request regarding the "My Library" interface.
Description:
It would be extremely helpful if users could highlight or color-code the title row (the entire row/box containing the article title) in the item list.
Use Case:
When working with large libraries or extensive literature reviews, it is often difficult to quickly distinguish between different categories of papers (e.g., "To Read", "High Priority", "Methodology", "Completed"). While Zotero currently offers tags and colored tag dots, a visual highlight on the title row itself would significantly improve scannability and visual organization without needing to open each item.
Proposed Feature:
Add an option in the right-click context menu (or a keyboard shortcut) to assign a background color to the selected item rows.
Alternatively, a "Highlight" toggle that colors the entire row background.
Ideally, this color should be visible in the main "My Library" view and persist across sessions.
I believe this would be a valuable addition for many users who manage large collections. Thank you for your time and consideration!
Best regards,
