"Or/Not" Feature for Tags
Hello, I'm a huge fan of zotero and recommend it to everyone I know. It's saved me a tremendous amount of time in the research stage for my dissertation.
There's one additional feature, though, that I think would make it even better. I'm not sure if you could manage this, but if you could, it would be a great help.
Zotero already has the ability to display notes that contain one tag AND another tag. But there's is no "or/not" feature. If I want to view notes which have "tag x" OR "tag y." Or if I want to view notes which have "tag x," but not any notes which have "tag x" and "tag x." A feature similar to some of the search engines for academic articles, or like the online newspaper archives at the LOC, with an or/not feature.
Is this something the zotero team would be interested in looking into?
Thanks!

A * B, A + B, A * b but not A*B + C
(where * is boolean and, + is or, small letter is "is not")
Maybe Simon or Dan have more on troubleshooting this. What system (OS) are you on?
I don't feel a need to solve this issue for me personally. Now I know how to use the feature, even though the UI isn't perfect.
I'm just grateful for you all who have created this amazing program. It gets the essential job done well, and I would be lost without it.
I just checked out the Zotero download page, and I see that 3.0rc1.1 is now available. I will go and download that right away!
