Problem with formatting of numbers?

Am i missing something, or there is no possibility in Zotero to apply formatting to prefix and suffix of multiple citation?

if you use

<layout delimiter="," font-style="italic" prefix="(" suffix=")">
<text variable="citation-number"/>
</layout>


you will italicise only citation numbers,

and in the case of


<layout delimiter="," font-style="italic" >
<text variable="citation-number"/ prefix="(" suffix=")">
</layout>


you will get parentheses around every citation number not included in the rangeā€”e.g. (1),(5-7), which is incorrect too. Is there any way to overcome this? And if not, why this bug isn't already on the Zotero Trac bug list?
  • Your issue is related to this one. As discussed in that thread, citations are formatted by a CSL processor. The Zotero CSL processor is currently being rewritten from scratch, should handle this case correctly, and (hopefully) make it into Zotero in the next couple of months.
