I'm on Windows 11 and am not having the problem. I'm not sure what Ctrl+0 is supposed to do, but on mine (both keyboard and numeric keypad), Ctrl+0 does what "Automatically Resize" does on the menu. It does the same whether my page is blown up large…

I am finding MANY problems with searching. But I've just checked, and I don't have these problems in the Web Library. Could my index be corrupted?
-
Thanks, @adamsmith. So that would be another item for the wishlist--for Zotero to add the capacity to find headings in a PDF and reinterpret them as TOCs?
-
Well, this is interesting. I just pulled the book I'm about to publish--in PDF form--into Zotero to test the TOC situation. Zotero doesn't interpret a TOC, though the document is formatted with standard headings. The book has its own TOC, of course,…

@adamsmith. I wasn't using Zotfile, but I did use Zutilo.

It gets deeper. With "Zotero:" in the Everything search on My Library, it brings up some good results and a whole lot of items with PDFs that are not related, as mentioned. But while Zotero: is still in the search Window, clicking on a tag in the Ta…

It's the left pane, one of the buttons at the top of the pane.

And another string is giving me a problem--this one a more significant problem for us all. I was trying to bring up every item where I had an internal link to another Zotero collection or topic. I searched on "Zotero:" and it once again brought up h…

I somehow let my original question drop and wanted to follow up with @martynas_b and @dstillman to confirm that the way the text boxes are working is much better than I imagined. Without actually trying it, I had the idea that if I was dragging the …

@adamsmith: Adam, I've found this happening on another string that I had created as unique. It's "*RP: " This string allowed me to find all of the Research Plans I have in operation. It's doing the same thing as "*DO: ". I wonder if the asterisk is …

@Joyxxb, welcome to Zotero. Let me ask, were the items you merged identical? If your interest is in putting the same item in multiple folders for organizational purposes, you can do that without getting the two versions back. Just drag the item into…

So glad it worked! @chenglongma, bravo! Already saving the world, one scholar at a time.

Thanks, @adamsmith. I thought I had a vague recollection....

While I understand that the Zotero Connector method of adding a webpage is preferred, it's not mandated. It keeps getting reported as an error and certainly would appear to be an error. It seems that much time to users and developers could be saved …

Great idea, @chenglongma!

I have figured out how to do this with Gmail, though the process is convoluted. It would be great to have it as a feature that works on the most commonly used email systems. Here's the Gmail process: https://genohistory.com/forum/topic/emails-in-gm…

Maybe import the second batch and leave the first where it is. Then perhaps you can merge your duplicates. It would be one by one, but really fast, I think. I've never tried to merge an orphaned PDF to a parented one, so try one first.
-
If possible, Dave, I'd try removing them from Zotero and doing it over in one big batch, if you haven't done things to them beyond the import yet. I don't know what can be done with Google Scholar. Perhaps someone else has an idea on that.

Hi, @Dave12042024. There are several factors that shape how to answer your question. First, you need to decide if you are going to embed the PDFs in Zotero or link out to them where they sit on your drive. If the second, you drop them into Zotero wh…

Thanks so much!

@adamsmith: Hey, Adam. Do you know if there's a way to confirm that this has been put in the bug list? It was odd luck that the "*DO" triggered it. It makes me think there might be other letter/symbol combinations that have not yet been identified w…

It could be cool to have a tool that facilitates collaboration on and sharing of EPUBs with annotations. But I don't want to sync an entire book every time I add an annotation. By approaching this in a modular way, I only have to sync the tiny annot…

Hi, @emp12705. There have been some changes to the interface since I wrote Zotero for Genealogy. Zotero was on Release 5 at that time. Feel free to contact me with questions at donna.baker@genohistory.com or at our forum specifically for genealogist…

I don't know of a way inside Zotero, but you can change the scale of your computer's monitor--going to 125% or more to enlarge everything.

@sdflewrit783, I think Actions and Tags for Zotero covers this one: Create book section (#204) https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-actions-tags/discussions/204 If you want to request others, you can do it here: https://github.com/windingwind/zo…

I just read at Github that the Zotero PDF Preview won't be updated until Zotero 7 is stable. So anyone on the Z7 beta needs to disable this plugin until then.
-
Yes, that fixed it. Thanks!
-
Thank you, @hsiangyu_wong. The ability to share scripts will be very helpful. Also, correct me if I'm wrong on @oldtimer's question, but I believe this script is supposed to do what the "Copy select collection link" did? https://github.com/windingw…

I would love it to be standard.

Thanks, @erazlogo. The instructions appear to require Zotero OCR, or is there a way without it?
