what a pity! I only use a local Zotero application/database. They have an equation editor unlike softmaker's TextMaker, which has a much better Zotero Plugin

I found that if I selected the top entry in the trash and then scrolled down fairly steadily so that all entries were rendered properly in the browser then I could Shift+click to select all down to that paper then clicked the delete icon I couldnt …

So, most of my co-authors use Latex and/or Word I have found a solution which is the best for me at the moment: (i) For writing papers with other people, MS Office Word in a Virtualbox Win10 Virtual Machine on ArchLabs Linux. This allows me to sta…

Thanks @damnation That's me :) I'm still finding the best solution the lack of equation editor in Linux Softmaker is a dealbreaker for me I have just got my Windows10 in VirtualBox going to check if that is yet another viable solution
-
Is there any plan for this? I want to move completely to Linux LibreOffice is great, but co-writing with Word users makes this problematic Softmaker is great, co-writing with Word users is better, but it has no equation editor in Linux Using Word we…

You can collaboratively cite in the same document with multiple Zotero libraries. The item information missing from your library will come from the one stored in the document along with citations. We don't technically recommend this, but it is possi…
-
Either way, before committing to TextMaker, I would at the very least post on their forums to find out if there is anyone there that will be able to provide Zotero support if you discover any bugs and if they are planning to keep the plugin up to da…

Oh, this may be a dealbreaker for me - no equation editor in Linux version of Softmaker https://forum.softmaker.com/viewtopic.php?f=389&t=20201

Thanks @bwiernik Thats actually what I have been doing I am thinking more and more that flattening of Zotero citations is not any real drawback for me
-
Also One point of consideration is how well the Linux word processor software can 'exchange' the citations with Word (my co-authors will no doubt be using this even if I am not), and whether Zotero citations are flattened However, if these co-aut…

Sorry, I missed that. I was looking for the tab or the same icon as in the library view Doh! Thanks
-
I just made a file in Softmaker on ArchLabs Linux with just a title and a citation of 66 papers and generated the bibliography and then saved it as a Microsoft Word File 1.docx file Then I opened that in Word in Win 10 and all was good So I edited…

Forum posts support HTML here, so your comment Aha! Thanks!

"This means SoftMaker haven't updated their Zotero integration since Zotero 6.0 release. " Ah, thanks. "I think you'll find that it isn't sustainable since often you need to go back and forth multiple times with a manuscript and the citations will…
-
@dstillman Oh, sorry. I thought Softmaker was using the Libreoffice plugin as when I open a Softmaker doc and put in a Zotero citation I get the following warning: The Zotero plugin for LibreOffice is outdated. Reinstall the plugin from Preferen…
-
Thanks for replies! I guess you two are 'from Zotero'? @adomasven By flattened you mean as in codes removed and just text? If so this is fine as when I send a document to my colleagues I usually do this anyway as they dont all use Zotero (fools! :…

I am trying to be helpful here :) I just updated to 6.0.4 and both Ctrl+C and context menu Copy still work for me
-
Updated to 6.0.3 because of https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/95641/new-update-grays-out-the-citation-in-the-red-bar#latest and now both Ctrl C and context menu copy work for me :) Thanks!
-
Update from 6.0.2 to 6.0.3 solved this for me :)
-
Same here, Ctrl C works, context menu copy nothing 6.0.2 windows 10
-
OK! So used the 'multiple sources' option and then add the ones I want to the list in the pane on the right and then click OK to do what I want :) Great stuff - that has been annoying me for years Thanks you so much You, @damnation, are a Rock a…

Thanks I am using Zotero Standalone 5.0.96.3, Win10, Word 2016 I cant see how you switch to classic view, either in Zotero or Word Sorry, I should have search before asking https://zotero-manual.github.io/citations/#classic-layout

Hi, I installed Master PDF editor: https://code-industry.net/free-pdf-editor/ Didnt use it much tho, so no expert - give it a try and see. Best

Please! For loads of things, not least: Authors initials with and without a 'dot' Missing fields etc etc etc

Thanks Adam, That is no problem at all - My personal, and very easy solution was first to write the paper using Elseveir ('spit'!) Harvard and just insert the references. Then, when done I went through and cut and text pasted the AUTHORS from th…
-
Thanks! Boy am I happy :) I had just found out that this was a 'numeric' citation system - duh! I used 'Elsevir numeric (with titles)' and its all done. Is there any way to get citations in both of the forms below, depending on the sentence struc…

Thanks, even easier!
-
just tried it, changed file extension from .txt to .bib and Zotero imported it Thanks Adam
-
Thanks how do I convert .txt to bibtex? just change the extension? If so, what to?

I more or less used the idea of Beatrice Penati on academia.edu http://www.academia.edu/1747759/From_spreadsheet_Excel_to_.bib_file_-_a_simple_solution This is how I managed to do it: To import from spreadsheet: * Use DDFilecatcher to make a .C…
