E.g. Google docs. It should accept rtf input, but I've seen this in other circumstances (on OS X). "Drag the note" - excellent!! That works and solves my immediate problem - in two ways: (1) Dragging into plain text context does get the line brea…

Thanks! Have sent a message!

Btw. I don't really mind about the user interface for this - if the colours were settable in the hidden prefs, that would be a great step forward!
-
Yes, I agree, that's another important use case. I find the colours quite close as well... and that's without being colour-blind! I would also love it if the coloured tags could have the hotkey number or an assignable letter/UTF-character/symbol on…

@dstillman Thank you again - thank you thank you - this is making my life so much easier, it's amazing!
-
Great, that's very helpful!

Ok, maybe it was just that they weren't indexed - I guess they are indexed locally, rather than syncd? Is there a way of telling whether indexing is going on? Many thanks!
-
Just to add: while (in a pdf) both 'stand-alone notes' and 'notes attached to highlight' are extracted similarly by ZotFile, you can actually distinguish them if they have different colours. Have added 'hex_color' here https://github.com/bjohas/zotf…

Hi @jschneider - yes, I would be! I think I've followed you on Twitter - maybe we can connect that way?

Thanks - I fixed the workshop page now!

I've added 'group' and 'key' to ZotFile, and created a pull request here: https://github.com/jlegewie/zotfile/pull/384. The changes allow you to use %(group) and %(key) to include the Zotero item group / key to the note text produced by ZotFile. P…

Good point! Here is is https://github.com/bjohas/Zotero_translators/blob/master/Bjoerns Citation String.js

Just to say that I am still interested in this. I would love to have a broader palette of colours (e.g. Red, Blue, cyan, green, yellow, orange, purple, magenta, brown, black, while). Also it would be really helpful to have more than 9 colours (wher…

Thank you - that's amazing! Regarding the API, do you have an example for creating a saved search through the web API?
-
Perfect, thank you! Found the translator, and have adapted it - straight forward. Thank you so much!

But anyway, the scannable cite translator is trivially simple javascript -- if you look at it, I'm pretty sure you'll find modifying it quite easy, even without knowing basically any js. The translator is not in the translators directory, right? So …

@Josha, @bwiernik - do you happen to know whether the way cite %(cite) is rendered can be set? E.g. could it be set to scannable cite? (I.e. introducing %(scannablecite) )? Or can it be changed otherwise?
-
Regarding 2/3 - Sure, html is plain text, but I'd want rendered html, so it can be pasted. In the past I converted html/text snippets into rtf snippets and then pasted, but it's awkward. So would nice to have Zotero produce (e.g.) html, but then spe…

Hello @adamsmith, thank you for the quick answer! There are two use cases, both to do with literature reviews. I tend to use Zotero as an information manager (as many of us do, right?). For reviews (but also for other things), I therefore start fro…

Hello @dstillman - I've got an entry with this https://www.research-collection.ethz.ch/bitstream/handle/20.500.11850/155470/eth-48718-01.pdf in the URL field - yet find available pdf doesn't fetch the file. That's strange, right?

Amazing - thank you. I did not know about this!! Very helpful also for other extensions!

Similar to copying with Zutilo, but for pasting text extracted with ZotFile: enable the %(uri) option, see https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/74966/zotfile-extracting-more-features-of-annotations#latest. The uri appears in the extracted text and (…

Ah - this is super-cool, thank you so much! Just to share what I found: Basically, go to about:config within Zotero, and modify these hidden prefs, e.g. as follows: extensions.zotfile.pdfExtraction.formatAnnotationHighlight => "%(content)" (%(ci…
-
Just to check - when you say 'colour of highlights', did you mean that coloured highlights are extracted (of any colour) or that the colour is extracted alongside the highlight?
-
To see whether it might extract more features - see https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/74966/zotfile-extracting-more-features-of-annotations#latest :) Thanks for answers!

One possible implementation would be to be able to place the 'exported RIS' for the item into a new item note. This is of course possible manually, but it's a bit cumbersome. Of course this proposal isn't very elegant, as it simply preserves all inf…
