quick copy always starts numbering at 1

ajhuang
i am trying to use quick copy to drag inline citations into a word document (shift + drag). the citation is always [1], ie the first one is 1, the second 1 is also 1, etc.

if i highlight and drag in two citations, then i get [1,2] but then the next citation i drag in will go back to 1. etc.

is it possible to get 1, 2, 3, etc when using quick copy? same thing happens if i use shift + drag or if i use ctrl + alt + a.

i tried this using radiology style [x] and skeletal radiology style (x).

thanks.

    that's expected. Quick copy just copies to the clipboard and Zotero has no way of knowing if there are already any citations in the document and where you're inserting a new citation in relation to them.
    If you want to use numbered citation styles, use the Word plugin
