Upgrade StorageSometimes dragging and dropping pdfs into Zotero deletes original file
I use Zotero under Linux. When I drag and drop a pdf from a File-manager into Zotero sometimes the file disappears from the original folder, the rest of the time the original copy stays where it was. I have not found out what different circumstances might trigger the different behaviour.
Did anybody else experience this behaviour? Any solutions or workarounds?

dstillmanThis should only happen if you hold down Shift while dragging, which causes Zotero to move files into Zotero instead of copying them.

aurimasedited July 18, 2014I have been able to reproduce this behavior (without Shift) sporadically on Windows, but I've not been able to track down the cause.

dstillmanFixed in the 4.0 Beta, I believe. (Let me know if not.)
