context menu item "add to last entry"

JakobGrilj
I propose a context menu item which will add the target of a link to the last item added to the zotero library.

The idea is that for those websites, for which the translator does not download the pdf automatically, this can be done in a rather easy way. For the moment I have to save the pdf and then drag-and-drop it onto the zotero entry, this would be faster with such a context menu item.

Greetings and thanks to the zotero team!

    This is exactly what the Zotfile plugin does. Install it, you'll love it.

    Thank you for the hint. However, zotfile does not quite what I meant.

    What I suggested was a context menu item that would show on the webpage. zotfile gives me a context menu in zotero.

    The advantage of zotfile is thus, that there is less confusion about which file to attach. The advantage of my suggestion is that it will save me one mouse-click (because using zotfile I need to download first and then attach)

    I can live perfectly with zotfile, but if the programmers want to consider to add an entry to the zotero context menu...

    Greetings and thanks again,
    Jakob

    PS: The renaming of files by zotfile is really nice and convenient.

    You should be able to drag-and-drop the link onto the item in the Zotero pane.
