Quick search bar will only search through items that match your saved search conditions. If your saved search only returns top-level items (not their child notes), then quick search does not check text within those items' child notes. You can edit …

If you right click on "My Library", there should be an option "Show Duplicates" in the context menu.
-
As far as I recall, all I did was that I cliked the 'sort by name' button in one of my Libraries. To confirm, do you mean you clicked on the "Title" column in the table to sort the items by it? Are there no entries appearing in "My Library" as wel…

I can reproduce, thank you. It happens specifically if the PDF with annotations is the only child item of the original parent row.
-
You can press right arrow on selected rows to expand those items and reveal attachments and notes without expanding annotations rows. Arrow left would do the opposite by collapsing only one level of rows.
-
I meant, you can do that after you add a note with an annotation and place the cursor onto the citation of the item. Seemingly, what you have in the second screenshot here. Then, you will be able to get to the item by clicking on the "Open in My Li…

However, I cannot click this to get to the annotation in the original source. If you click on "Add/Edit citation", it will bring up the citation dialog. Then, if you click on the "bubble" representing the citation at the top, there will be a popup w…

Great! Thank you for confirming that.

Thank you for the report. In the latest Beta, this should be fixed. I now hear "collapsed/expanded" (NVDA) or "closed/open" (JAWS) only on top level container rows that can actually be expanded or collapsed. Rows that cannot be expanded (either chil…

Thank you for the report. This is fixed in the last Beta. The list of collections can now be navigated via arrows. You can also expand the entire collection dropdown with Alt+DownArrow if you need to get to a sub-collection deeper in the hierarchy.

It is overall possible to open a hyperlink in a note. When the cursor is right before or inside of a link, there is a small popup appearing above it. That popup has 3 element - a button to unlink the url from the text, a button to edit the link and…

A small note on the new behavior. You can type the locator together with the search query before adding the item into the citation. If there is a valid locator found at the end, it will be excluded from the search to not affect your results. For exa…
-
Thank you. I think I know what's going on. Last question: what happens if you do not click into the dialog and just give it time to load? Will the cursor eventually appear in it by itself? It should not take long but might be a few seconds if the l…
-
Thank you for the report. When the citation dialog appears, does the cursor appear in the bar for you, so you can type immediately? Or did you have to click inside of the dialog to begin typing?

@MarkW I appreciate the feedback. That sidenav is a fairly complex component design-wise. The Info, Abstract, etc. control types you are referring to are buttons whose purpose is to visually scroll to the respective section in the item pane (the p…

@abaker574, this forum is the main place for all Zotero-related support, including accessibility questions and feedback.
-
@abaker574, an accessibility guide is certainly something we should consider. It does not currently exist. As a general rule, any additional instructions are stored as aria-descriptions, which by default are not announced by JAWS. Make sure that in…
-
@SunDial, the item pane is a panel that follows the items list. It contains a list of collapsible sections ("Info", "Abstract", etc.), so role of "list" would probably be appropriate, and we'll add it. The "locate" button is located in the navigati…

@dhacker29, could you check if you are still seeing this in the latest beta?

@WalccMan, could you check if you are still seeing this in the latest beta?

You may also consider using screen readers like VoiceOver (for macOS) or NVDA/JAWS (for windows). As far as I am aware, these are the most popular tools that folks with low vision use to interact with/read in Zotero, and they may work for your use c…

Great! You're welcome.

What version of Zotero are you on? What OS? Also, are you using an external monitor? This issues popped up a few times in the past (https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/117023/disappearing-add-citation-bar) and there was a fairly recent update mea…

Quick format dialog was significantly refactored to improve its accessibility, so some behaviors did change. To open the popup with item details via keyboard, you can focus the item bubble with right/left arrows and then press down arrow or space to…

Windows might not always let the Quick Format window be pulled to the foreground. If that happens, you can select Quick Format window via keyboard by holding Alt and pressing Tab a few times. When the Quick Format window is switched to, you should …

@adamsmith are you using an external monitor with a higher-than-default refresh rate? This might have the same cause as: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/113360/zotero-7-beta-red-bar-disappears-but-open-documents-section-appears

@SunDial also there is a number of instructions added as descriptions to relevant focusable elements that should be read out after the content of the focused element is announced. For example, when a search input or a cited item is focused, in the …

@DWL-SDCA this is certainly a bug - all fields should save once they loose focus regardless of if you click or tab away. I’m having a hard time reproducing this issue so far though. Am I understanding correctly that it happens only sometimes? I did…

The issue of JAWS not properly announcing names of items from the items list during navigation with arrow keys should be fixed in the last beta build.
