【BUG feedback】The 5.0.97 beta will disable the ZoteroQuickLook plugin
The 5.0.97 beta will disable the ZoteroQuickLook plugin, which will be downgraded to 5.0.96.2 and can be reused with QuinkLook,recommended to turn off automatic updates
It appears when the beta moves to stable, we'll lose the current Quicklook plugin for good (Disabling the new PDF reader in Zotero beta's preferences did not bring back Quicklook functionality.)
I like Quick Look in general on macOS, but in Zotero I don't see a huge difference between 1) pressing space bar, scrolling in a pop-up window, and pressing space bar again and 2) pressing Return, scrolling in a tab, and pressing Cmd-W.
The biggest difference in Finder is that the arrow keys will move to the next file while the preview window is still open. I don't know if that worked for the ZoteroQuickLook plugin. Supporting that use case, and showing annotations, would be the main reason to support something like this natively in Zotero (along with making it cross-platform, of course).
Finding ways to make Quicklook native to Zotero (and cross-platform) would be nice. It may also address the needs of those who want a pdf preview window in the Library view (which does not make sense to me at all). I can't remember if arrow keys worked to move from one file to another within ZoteroQuickLook, but the speed with which QuickLook opens PDFs for preview is great compared to any pdf reader, whether it is Zotero's version or Acrobat.
ZoteroQuickLook plugin supported that function on win10.

Please bring back this feature!
In win10 "Ctrl-W" doesn't work.

1. The space key is occupied.
The Bata Zotero occupied the space key, and I just change the space key to ‘~’. In zoteroquicklook.js line 558, I changed as follows:
if (((event.keyCode==192 ) && !(event.ctrlKey || event.altKey || event.metaKey)) || (key == 'y' && event.metaKey && !(event.ctrlKey || event.altKey))) .
2. The QuickLook bridge executable (Win) can't be found correctly.
The problem may be at lines 36-48 in zoteroquicklook.js. Unfortunately, I don't know JAVA so I can't solve it at the code level, and can only specify the location of 'bridge.exe' with the 'CustomViewCommand' parameter.
