font size of author-date citations in footnotes
Hello,
I recently changed from Endnote to Zotero and I am quite happy with it. I managed to create my own CSL-file today and I am quiete happy with it.
Ther is one last problem, I cannot resolve on my own.
When I am entering a citation into a content footnote (I use an author-date format in general) it always has a 12pt font size and not the footnote size of 10pt. Everytime I change the size, it popps back to 12pt as soon as I enter the next citation (and all refreshes).
Is there any possibility to fix this problem (preferably define the size in the CSL-format or something else permanent)? If not, it would still be great if there could at last be a solution to prevent the citation the rechange its size to 12pt after I changed it to 10pt.
Thanks for any idea (as I am trying to fix this for hours and have to finish a paper tomorrow)!

This is a general problem that touches on other issues, BTW.
Thanks for your information. So, you think that there is no solution for my problem other than having my (sometimes long) footnotes in 12pt?
That would mean that I would have to go back to endnote, because I cite so often in footnotes.
Or: How can I combine in-text author-date citation with citations in footnotes in one csl-file? Than I would just edit the footnotes afterwords...
Thanks again!

Zotero currently uses the default style for the bibliography. It seems like it should use a different style (e.g. one named "Zotero bibliography") instead. Then you'd be able to apply changes to that separate style.
I always try to reformat, but it will always go back to the initial 12pt :-(
And I am fine with my bibliography style (It took me hours to learn how and where to change the CSL-file...).
Thank you anyway!
