Book chapter vs. book-entry

jeaniemeanie
just a short question: very often I enter first the whole book into the library, and then I enter several specific articles in this book seperately. all the time I have to re-type all the informations of the whole book, that is already in the data-base. why isnt't it possible that zotero does this automatically? (or is it possible and I just don't know how?)
thanks

    Duplicate the book item. Change its type to "Book section". Zotero automatically switches the relevant informations.

    =>Title is moved to Book Title when changing item type from Book to Book Section, and Book Title is moved to Title when going from Book Section to Book if there's not also a title
    => Short Title is cleared when moving between Book and Book Section if Title/Book Title is automatically transferred
