As mentioned above, the escape key does the trick, which solves the issue to all practical and immediately relevant intents and purposes. I don't have a problem with panel focus, and I'm looking forward to a more distinctive unfocused-selected row …

The escape key does the trick, thanks! (I still believe there's an interface design issue, though, at least in my particular version.)
-
Thanks, Dan, and yes, this is about the middle and the right-hand panel. I repeatedly get stopped dead in my tracks when I switch my attention from the active right-hand panel to the respective item in the middle panel, which is a switch required …

I'm using Ubuntu as well -- the orange may come from Ubuntu's orange and purple brand identity,[PDF] so colours may vary elsewhere.

I've noticed that Zotero doesn't always recalculate all of the author-date year disambiguations. Is APA still broken when you force it to recalculate from scratch by switching to it from a non-author style? Or when you hit the Refresh button?
-
I'm not a Zotero developer and can't speak for them. It's for them to say what information they need. What happens when you switch from "Zeitschrift für Soziologie" citation format to one of the default author-date formats that ship with the Engli…

Thanks to fbennett's work on this, I haven't had any problems with large citation counts per author per year, and I quite often deal with documents that cite in excess of twenty-six items per author per year. Are you using an unusual author-date cit…
-
Thanks! I used to be able to spot the title field data amongst a lot of entirely human-unreadable code, but a recent software upgrade seems to have reduced the contents of the tooltip to a mere single line, whereas it used to come with nearly the eq…
-
Thanks! I followed Frank's suggestion of extending the time that tooltips are displayed. I can now pick the title field from the tangle without the stress of needing to do it in four seconds. This is less than ideal, but it's good enough: I can keep…

Thanks!

No, as in freezing and becoming unavailable to Zotero: no further citations can be added even to the most recent files. Web browsing is unaffected, but Firefox needs to be killed and restarted rather than just closed and restarted for Zotero to work…
-
Yes, it was. Maybe the NoScript Firefox plugin supressed the prompt.
-
Thanks, this did the trick! It turned out there was a LibreOffice-specific Java library missing. Would there be any way of flagging such unmet dependencies during the installation process?
-
I managed to solve this myself. It turned out to be a LibreOffice setting: Tools > Options > General > Tips.
-
I was referring to the search box in the top-right of the classic Add Citation dialog but was unaware of the mode selector menu. I've now switched Title, Creator, Year mode to All Fields & Tags mode and everything works again like it used to. Th…
-
No. I work with a lot of data collected from the web, and "posting date" corresponds to Zotero's "date" field. I've just dealt with a case where I had six contributions by the same author to the same usenet thread, resulting in six different optio…
-
Thanks, I did that at the first sight of the new insert citation dialog, which has been a while, and I don't even recall for what reason I switched back to the old one. Inserting citations has worked the old way ever since, though, it's only now tha…
-
Ah, okay. The next best thing, then, would be an official tutorial that describes Gitty K's solution and provides the equivalent code for the other functions...
-
Worked for me -- thanks! This shouldn't be so hard, however, and I'd suggest that the word processing integration ship with a pre-built keyboard shortcut for every one of its functions.

Yup, predictable: year 1998 fixed by adding a 1998 citation, all other years messed up again in the process: Smith, J. (1997cg, September 18). Smith, J. (1998a, February). Smith, J. (1998b, February). Smith, J. (1998c, February 23). Smith, J. (1…
-
Next operation in the same document: the insertion of 2000a gets the year 2000 disambiguated correctly but messes up the year 1999 again: Smith, J. (1998cj, June 25). Smith, J. (1998ck, August 6). Smith, J. (1999cl, January 4). Smith, J. (1999cm,…
-
Here's an observation that might be helpful in isolating the bug. I've got a document (using Zotero 2.x) whose incorrect references ran from: Smith, J. (1989a, December 8) to: Smith, J. (2007cx, August 22). The year disambiguation suffixes jus…
-
After enabling Debug Output Logging, I started from a correctly disambiguated version of the 230-plus citation piece and added another citation, which, consistent with previous behaviour, resulted in messed-up year disambiguation with suffixes incre…
-
Thanks. Please let me know how it goes!
-
Clipboard bib comes out okay (tested only once, though). There appears to be a pattern in in-document reference lists: when I insert a new citation, the disambiguation goes funky. So far, using the 3.0 beta, I've hit Refresh on funky disambiguation…
-
You've Got Mail!
-
Also: I had some faint hope that the performance issue might disappear in the 3.0 beta -- it didn't: crunching through those 230+ citations still froze up Firefox and LibreOffice for a couple of minutes (Intel Core2 Duo CPU T7300, 2.00GHz). The old …
-
I've set up a Zotero 3.0b2 test install, got the most recent APA v.6 citation style from the repository, and added another citation to a longish document with some 230 citations already in place. Here's part of the output: Smith, J. (1993af, Nove…
-
Okay -- I followed the advice given here and reinstalled the OO extension from the Cite pane in Zotero's preferences. It's working now!
-
When I open a document in LibreOffice and try to insert a citation, I get the citation style dialog, but when I pick a citation style I get an error with the heading "Zotero integration" that reads something like this: An error occurred communicati…
