How to automatically move tabs to new windows when opening new items ?

mengch

I run zotero 6 on macOS, and I have to move the tab by hand everytime I open a new item.

As I say there, you can Shift-double-click to open PDFs in new windows.

We can consider an option to open PDFs in new windows by default, though I believe you're the first to request that.

but by this way all the new tab is not in the same new page, but separated into many pages. I hope that even with the built-in pdf reader, the experience will still be the same as before with Adobe, with all documents open in a new window and zotero in a separate window.

its too many windows! I just want to open all item in the same window (PDF reader), which different from zotero.

We're planning to add additional support for using multiple windows, including combining PDF tabs in separate windows, in a future version.

I'd also like new window by default, so maybe a toggle in the preferences?

Also voting for default-to-new window :)

Holding shift functions correctly but doesn't support the speed I work at and I forget all the time✌️
