Got it. As you say, if I've got the gumption to actually click on them and see what item they come from - and now I have, they're all from one item added in _2016_ which has managed to get its tags added. Sorry, but thanks. I do think it's amaz…

Yes, I think I understand: all my stuff is in My Library, so all my tags should be in the panel shouldn't they? And they are ('Beckfoot' too now) but they weren't two hours ago when I did the pic. I'd no idea Tags was so dynamic - that it could pi…

Sorry, missed your earlier answer. Roman _is_ in my tag pane - now, but it wasn't!
-
Now this is getting weird! I've just tried entering every letter of the alphabet in Tags and got some MOST unexpected suggested results: A - Ambleside; B - Birdoswald; C - Castleshaw; D - 0; E - 0; F - 0; G - 0; H - History; I - 0; J - 0; K - Kirk…

Yes sorry, I thought I was sounding a bit panicky! I like to understand how anything works, even if I can't control it. The way this has suddenly appeared is annoying as well as unexpected. And I turned autocomplete off many versions ago. Latest e…

Where? This isn't a pdf with a string of automatic tags. 'Automatically tag items' was indeed turned on (not by me - upgrade?) but as I say, there isn't an obvious source. There's descriptive text in Abstracts but Zotero wouldn't pull it in from the…

Hi! It's a bit late to be answering your query, but if it's of any interest - I was spending too much time reading pdfs and tagging them, so a few weeks ago I got Claude to help me produce 'Tag / PDF Comparison tool.exe'. It produces a list of tags,…

Thank you very much for this, and for following up my old Comment. I shall certainly test it in a few days - at the moment, having been scammed, I'm without a credit card to set up the AI.

REALLY? I do check this stuff before I complain. I'm in the middle of something but I'll try again when I can. But I'm not going to trouble you with every file (small proportion) that fails. You might like to try a couple that have just failed thou…

If anyone is thinking of installing this plugin but is worrying about whether their files will be indexed, I'm in the process myself and have had a progress message - https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u3113719/evem98e1vctfbj48lq5d.p…

Here - https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-actions-tags/discussions/390 But Zutilo now works for Zotero 7 so I use that.

Dan - thanks for the positive response. Just to show you what I mean, here's a section of my full screen when I'm looking for the slider - https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u3113719/4goe093bckonm3pmf2sr.png and when it's 'fulled' - …

I was a bit stupid here - I assumed Zotero had generated it while, as dstillman says, it's just a shortcut. When I looked in my taskbar folder (live and learn, I didn't even know there was one) there were four more instances on the shortcut. Now the…

If anyone has been following this, I have (not surprisingly) found that copying the Contents list into the Abstract panel means that one can find an article in a book or journal - providing one searches with All fields and tags.
-
Works like a dream. Thanks so much! I think it's best with Tags pinned, so it's fully visible (in my setup, anyway). You've made an old man very happy.
-
Magic, and thanks!
-
Indeed - I check every day to see if the update has been released!

Just playing around - I use v7 - I tried enlarging text with the Windows setting but couldn't live with that. My Zotero is set up View>Density>Compact. I've just tried View>Font size>Bigger and I'm sure the drop down is more readable -…

Did you get an answer to these points John? The small drop down text is getting on my nerves.

Although claude70's suggestion doesn't quite meet the case, I am happy to report that I have created a test sub-collection and added a test item in it (an item with am attached file), and when I right-click on the item in the sub-collection I am off…
-
Thank you for this useful contribution claude70.

Thank you guys for your time, particularly Dan who must be incredibly busy, but it's obvious that our discussion isn't going anywhere, and the answer to my original question is, that it isn't possible to remove an item from a sub-collection only.
-
I'm really not confused - I understand the situation perfectly. I understand that just because an item is in a sub-collection it is still in its collection. But I make a sub-collection and add items to it for a function; when the function changes o…
-
You see, I can drag an item out of a collection into a sub-collection, but I can't just drag it out. Or delete it. It's not a big deal, but it would seem logical.
-
- only
-
But I don't want to remove it from the collection, I want to remove it from the sub-collection.
-
Yes?
-
Er no - it's just an item in a sub-collection. I can Move item to bin, but of course then it's deleted from the parent collection too, since as you say 'sub-collections are only views of sub-sets of the total data' I don't want to see it in the su…

Thanks, of course you're right, should have thought. Zoplicate. Didn't know it worked that way. Useful.
