Cannot edit any fields

jsmoon

So I had to install Zotero on a new computer, and I guess it had some upgrades. I no longer see the complete info on any given document down the right side (used to show if you had the item selected, even an abstract). Now I do not see that, and I cannot edit an existing source, even when it is missing information.

Any ideas?

You could have just collapsed the right-hand column. Have you tried restarting Zotero?

jsmoon

Oh you are awesome! how might I have done that?

Also, when I reloaded it, for some reason the whole screen was about twice the normal size for a minute. Is that a new bug?

You can minimize the right-hand panel by dragging it all the way to the right, but we've occasionally had people report that it just "happened" which is why we built in the reset after restart.

Never seen the screen glitch -- do you mean "minute" literally or as in "a brief moment"? The latter I wouldn't worry about, the former is quite odd.

Well I tried to recreate it but it did not happen again. So, it must have been a random thing.

Thanks so much!
