OK, thank you for the update Adam. It's encouraging to know that the issue hasn't been forgotten.
-
Adding the place field for Journal Articles was planned nearly three years ago, and was felt to be uncontroversial. I still need this almost every time I use Zotero, and have to add it in square brackets after the publicaiton title -- not at all sat…

I was surprised to find no Place field in the Journal Article item type. This thread amply documents the need for it, and I've now run into a need for it as well. This thread seems contradictory because at the top it says that the artcle-journal ty…

Please don't get rid of the right-click transform case option. I use it all the time because the sources I download titles from are a complete mishmash, and it's the only way of getting some uniformity. I think the idea that a CLS processor could be…

A month on and no fix from Microsoft. Error still persists in the preview of Office 2013 I downloaded yesterday. I submitted a bug report from the "frowny face" icon in Word 2013 -- I hope others have done the same.

Thanks Simon for quick reply and suggestions. I just set layers.acceleration.disabled to true and gfx.direct2d.disabled to true (in Standalone) and the problem has now gone away with the new-style dialogue! I didn't change extension.zotero.integrat…

Simon, the problem isn't when running Firefox, only when running Zotero Standalone. The * double-click (bringing up the favourites panel) works fine in Firefox, and so does the new-style Zotero insert citation dialogue when running Zotero in Firefox…
-
Yep, same problem here. Win7 Pro 64bit new install, Office 2010, latest plugin. The dialogue flashes uncontrollably ONLY when I'm using Zotero standalone. When I close standalone and open Firefox, the dialogue works perfectly. Exit Word, close Firef…

Thank you very much indeed. This must be the fastest fix ever for a bug report!!

OK, here are some examples I've pulled together, but of course you'll want to use definitive sources if they exist. First of all some notes on specific "styles", and then a couple of examples from journals. APA style: Director name (Director), &…

Yes, this is sorely missing. I'm sure it's requred in several citation styles, but just as importantly, it is crucial information about a film which should be storable in the Zotero database. If anyone is working on adding a Country field, please no…
-
Thanks, fbennet, for the very full and helpful explanation. I think most of my points would be addressed by an implementation in Zotero of nesting for typographical markup. I'm also sure that underlining for titles is going the way of the dinosaur, …
-
Surely there's a real problem with the rich-text solutions: all of these lock down a particular semantic item to a typographical style which is meant to vary according to the publisher's house rules/stylesheet. So, while I might want to signal a boo…

After working with this for a few days, I notice that despite the workaround suggested above (retyping diacritics in fields imported from databases), the Word plugin seems to get "reset" from time to time, and I get offset italics again. This time, …
-
OK, I've done some investigating and have discovered something interesting. The offsetting of the italics occurs for records which contain diacritics where I've downloaded the entry from a library database (OPAC style). If I look in my bibliography …

I've just downloaded 1.5 as well with the new Word plugin to support it (Word 2007 on Vista), and am seeing this exact same problem for the first time. In most of the styles I have tried, the italics (or underlining in the MLA underlining style) are…
