There is also a lightweight version of FoxitReader for Linux https://www.linuxbabe.com/desktop-linux/install-foxit-pdf-reader-ubuntu. I believe all readers mentioned here are good, but still has some level of issues. masterpdfeditor is probably the…

If anyone is looking to implement this for personal use, the pyzotero library might help https://github.com/urschrei/pyzotero

I posted a few potentially useful tools for implementation of HTML to PDF conversion in this thread. https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/81185/feature-request-optionally-save-web-pages-as-pdf-and-a-list-of-tools-that-might-help

Something like this works well for parsing out the relevant fields from the BibLatex files created by Better BibTex: #!/bin/env bash csplit -kq $1 "/^@/-1" "{*}" rm xx00 # An empty file that is created when splitting mkdir -p notes mkdir -p abst…
-
After posting this I found out that the brilliant Better BibTex extension has an option to include notes when exporting to .bib files. It can also automatically keep these files up to date, which is quite convenient. The only downside is that it exp…

Didn't work for me either, installs fine but Zotero still launches in fullscreen and exits instead of minimizes (I couldn't find an option in the menu or for the addon to change the behavior). If anyone else happens to be on i3, you can use this sol…

Thanks for the quick reply. If the only way to launch Zotero is with the gui running, I guess I can bind a hotkey to launching it on another virtual desktop, and then another hotkey for closing it. When running and not in focus, zotero sits around 3…

Personally, I spend much of my time at the command line, and it feels unnecessary to launch the entire Zotero interface when I just want to read a paper or glance at a figure again. There is a great software called zotero-cli (https://github.com/jba…

Thanks, I couldn't really figure out the database setup, so I ended up querying my library through pyzotero in the end.
-
I don't want to write anything to the database via sqlite, I read that this was not recommended. I just want to be able to use the command line to query the database and return items matching keywords in the author, title, and abstract fields.
-
Thanks, I hadn't discovered that about the "Creator, Title, Year" mode! I never use it since I prefer to include the full text pdf content in my search. However, I might start using it now just because of this. I think what you suggested with the c…

I also think this could be useful for areas like biology and medicine, where articles are usually remembered by what lab they came out of, i.e. the last author. It would be great if there was an option to add a column to the main pane with the name …

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm not on Ubuntu, but I agree that it is probably something on the OS level, potentially with Gnome. I agree that adding a README might be the best solution, especially if the other solution was not as straightforward as expected. Thanks for…

Thanks for the reply. I believe I already tried running that script, but I gave it another go no, still with no icon (although the path is updated in the .desktop file, just as when I did it manually). I updated to 137 and symlinked to `~/.local/sh…

Great, thanks for the info!

Yes, you are right regarding the trash, the parent item is actually greyed out also, I just didn't notice it the first time around. And the collections do indeed behave differently than "My Library". This means that for "My Library" and its collecti…

I just came across another similar situation when deleting a web page, pubmed entry, or an attached link to a file (and possibly other entries). The subitem will initially disappear from its parent item, but if collapse and then expand the parent, t…

I can replicate this on Linux build 136. However, I believe that it is not a problem with deleting the note, but that note list in the side panel is not updated correctly after note deletion (but only for notes created with Zotero5). A few observat…

That was quick! It is working as expected for me in build 136, thank you!

Great thanks!

Hi, I am experiencing the same problem as the OP and the proposed solution is not working for me. I have an item to which I have attached a scientific article and its supplementary information as two different document. I use the zotfile addon to a…

Although there isn't a setting in Zotero for this, it is possible to create a shell script that uses the location of the file to determine which PDF viewer to use. Since you can set Zotero to save all its files to a specific directory, this can effe…

Does it? How do I use it? I only found this 2 year old thread on the topic on the zoero foums https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/31093/corresponding-author-wildcard/ and no mention of it in the wildcards section of Zotfile (unless you build your o…

As mentioned above, I also think this could be useful for areas like biology and medicine, where articles are usually remembered by what lab they came out of, i.e. the last author. So sorting for last author could be nice, although searching for it …

Yes, I meant 'comma' (,), sorry. And I was looking at the HTML version. It didn't strike me as possible that they would only use the correct citation format in the pdf. Not sure why they don't pay more attention to that, but I will use the pdfs as …
