@emilianoeheyns Thank you for pointing out how support for BBT works. Apologies for not posting the issue on GitHub. I have since also posted this issue on BBT GitHub's forum together with the solution. I hope that this was the correct thing to do. …
-
@adamsmith Understood. I will do for any future issues I may have. In this case, the issue was entirely my fault for not filling the "language" in the "info" window of the item. I now realize why I need to fill in this for each item. ;) Thank you a…
-
@poettli That was it! Fixed immediately. Thank you for pointing this out to me. Just in case others search this forum with a similar issue: Make sure that the "Language" is filled in correctly in info>Language>[input "日本語” or "ja"]. Thi…
-
@emilianoehenyns I changed language settings under Zotero>Settings...>Advanced>General>Micellaneous>Language. I changed this setting to 日本語 (Japanese), and added a new Japanese-language paper to Zotero. Unfortunately, this did not…

distillman: Just to follow up. I once again tried searching for the template on a different Mac and found it. :) On the website (https://www.zotero.org/support/note_templates) it says to search for "annotations.noteTemplates". But it seems to actu…
-
distillman: Will do. Thank you as always for all your help. :)
-
distillman: Good to know that this is being planned. Excellent. :) I am using the beta version of Zotero 6.0-beta.2+8d8170583. Is this the latest version? I check often for updates in the pull-down help menu under "Check for Updates ...". Current…

I am trying to work out how to get my highlights, highlight annotations, and note annotations together with the full citation information out of Zotero. When I drag and drop the highlight/note annotation out of Zotero it into another app I get the h…
-
@joycekwc, I followed your instructions and exported the note I selected. Thanks for your guidance. :) How did you get the live links added? All that was exported was the text of the note, no live links to Zotero. Also, does this feature work only …
-
Is there any documentation or a step-by-step guide that explains how to use this new beta feature for exporting annotations (highlights + notes)? As someone not familiar with computer programming, I am having a hard time trying to follow this disc…
-
@qqbb Ah, I see now what you were explaining. >5. If Better BibTeX plug-in creates an incorrect romajization, right-click on the >Item, and choose "Better BibTeX" -> "Change BibTeX key...". Manually enter the >correct citation key and …
-
Thanks @qqbb and @emilianoeheyns. Your valuable guidance has proved invaluable. :) For those who are new to Zotero and come across this post, let me leave a little comment on how to be up and running using the method I understood. 1. Install the a…
-
@qqbb Should this result in a change in an item's "Citation Key" at the top of the "info" pane? When I try doing this, it does not show the change. I may be doing it all wrong.
-
@emilianoeheyns Perfect! This is actually the type of setting I was looking for! Thanks soooo much. Just one more quick related question, in the case where BBT gets the romajization wrong, is there a way to manually make corrections?
-
Any update on this issue, please?
-
@dstillman I would like to add my vote for this suggestion. Zotero's in-built PDF reader is awesome. I would love to see the Zotero (beta) play nicely with the other tools. Therefore, it is great to read that the development team is on top of this. …
-
@dstillermann Great! I just uploaded to the latest beta and can confirm that this "tooltip" function is working. In upgrading I also realized just what it is for. It is to reveal the entire text of an item that is hidden depending on the width of…
-
@martynas_b Thanks. Double-clicking did the job! :) I was clicking the extracted text once and nothing happened, so I thought this was no possible. It is great to know that the developers have even thought of this. Zotero's PDF Reader is truly won…
-
@ emilianoeheyns Thanks for your instructions. I managed to find the file path and past the issue on GitHub. ( https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/issues/1154 ) Hopefully some solution can be found. :)
-
I got the above results when I typed in "ls /tmp". Where do I find the /tmp files on my Mac? What is the path to find these files?
-
I get the following when I type in the "ls /tmp" command: boost_interprocess clipboard-state-manual.txt clipboard-contents-bbt.txt com.apple.launchd.KXBN1OTnxe clipboard-contents-manual.txt com.apple.launchd.LkIbvRzNn4 clipboard-state-bbt.txt pow…
-
@emilianoeheyns Thanks for following up on this issue. I really appreciate it! :) I followed your instructions and believe I have the 4 files in /tmp, but I am at a loss as to where the /tmp folder is on my Mac. If you could provide me with the fi…
-
@emilianoeheyns Would you mind giving me detailed instructions on how to get the information you need? I have only basic computer skills. I look forward to getting the information to you so this issue can be solved. I will work on it tomorrow. (It …
-
@emilianoeheyns I downloaded and used "Clipboard Viewer". I typed in "{ | Brewer, 1991 | | | zu:276004:4EAB2LZW }". Then I copied and again pasted the same into a note taking application. Clipboard Viewer showed the results for all the following fil…
-
@emilianoeheyns I am not sure if I understand you mean exactly, but what I did was launch Bookends floating citation window in the note taking application. I then clicked on the "paste" button in this window to have the citation pasted in the text …
-
@emilianoeheyns It would be great to try some debugging of BBT to see if this works. I will have to depend on somebody to open an issue on the BBT tracker as I do not have expertise in this type of thing.
-
@fbennett I put two | (vertical bar) in front of the surname of the author in Bookends citation information itself. Then I used the floating citation window to get the following: {||Brewer, 1991} I even put two | (vertical bar) in Japanese usi…
-
@emilianoeheyns When I use the Floating Citation Window in Bookends with a note taking application, I get the following: {Brewer, 1991} ATOK does not seem to be activated.
-
I am just wondering if there is any way around this. To explain more what I originally requested, let me describe the type of workflow I envisage in steps. Explaining this may bring other ways/methods to mind. -------------------------- Scenario 1…

@emilianoeheyns This is what appears in the clipboard: { | Brewer, 1991 | | | zu:276004:4EAB2LZW } But it pasted in an application as following: {|Bれうぇr、1991|||ず:276004:4EAB2LZW} It appears to be correct when copied into the clipb…
