  • Ah yes, I see. You are right. This works ... But this could all be simplified (at least in theory). Perhaps it is not that easy to implement the drag&drop functionality across the platforms ... The ideal outcome would be having all the neede…
  • "Then, if you click on the "bubble" representing the citation at the top, there will be a popup with "Show in Library" button." Maybe this is a window thing? On Mac I get this: https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u2060380/5mz5zf9sjyt…

  • "I for one have never worked like that. In my line of work, copying text into one's own work is quite rare." Perhaps you are in natural sciences. In humanistics, where we work with many qualitative methods and citations, this is how everyone works …
  • I don't understand how this is not the most basic capability of referencing software. I mean, this is literally the usual writing process - copy and paste a highlighted text from a piece into your work and at the end generate a bibliography. Book…
