I think both scenarios are rather unlikely; the machine is less than two years old and hasn't shown any other issues and as it's a Linux machine I doubt there's any malware involved. I know that correlation doesn't imply causation but the error occu…

I'm on version 7.6.5.2. This is the first crash I've had in LibreOffice since quite a while. I've also never encountered the case that after a LibreOffice crash Zotero wouldn't open.
-
Yes it is - sorry, I somehow had not found that post.
-
In Zotero 7.0.0-beta.66 the problem of the reader jumping back to the previously clicked bookmark persists.
-
I have to admit that after using the beta for longer, I do find the search behaviour a tiny bit irritating. The amount of false matches is often higher than that of real matches; for example searching for "mother" also matches "other", "brothers", "…

In the most recent beta (7.0.0-beta.64+8f8c0d079) the problem persists but now clicking on an item from the dropdown list doesn't bring the citation picker to the front anymore (which was actually quite useful, because it always opens behind the LO …

I think both would be great, thank you!

Yes, I mean the outline icon at the top of the left-hand pane. The tooltip says "double-click to expand/collapse all items" and that is also the behaviour of the PDF viewer in Firefox.
-
I noticed that in the current beta neither single clicking nor double clicking the outline icon in the reader expands or collapses all outline items.
-
It seems like the PDFs have not been OCRed, which means that Zotero sees them as just an image, not as text. There's different software that can do OCR, for example Adobe Acrobat: https://www.adobe.com/de/acrobat/how-to/ocr-software-convert-pdf-to-t…

The pop-up is part of the screen recording to show mouse clicks. I'm using Zotero on Kubuntu 23.10. It doesn't matter for me what kind of PDFs they are. It does make a difference, however, whether the tab has been openend before. If document B has…

I don't have any plugins enabled. Here's a video of the issue: https://imgur.com/4Ec6GTG

Calibre allows you to export eBooks metadata as .bib files (which can be imported into Zotero) through its „Create catalog“ feature.
-
I can reproduce it on a different computer. To do so: Open a book with a long title (e.g. „This is a relatively long title“) Open the citation picker and type „this“ -> one result in Open Documents Keep typing "is" -> two results in Open…

I personally keep my Zotero notes inside Zotero and use Zotero's search. If you want them as files, maybe this plug-in could be for you (I've only used it sporadically because it does more than I need): https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-better-…

After using the beta a bit more, I've found two arguments against keeping the annotions selected. As warwickmm noted, accidentally deleting annotations is a risk - I've done so on a few occasions when I thought the focus was still in the search bar …
-
I usually just download the individual chapters in those cases and merge the pdfs. So for me the best solution would probably be that Zotero just doesn't download any file if it cannot download the whole book.
-
Perfect, thank you!
-
The problem seems to be fixed in the latest beta. Thank you!
-
Okay, good to know it wasn't entirely my misunderstanding. Looking forward to the fixes!

Hi all, after once again running into problems with Zotero's automatic page detection I was wondering what the "automatically detect" checkbox actually does - it would be great if one could "reset" the page numbers to use the automatically detected…
-
I'm now on 7.0.0-beta.56 and have noticed that after triple-click selecting something, keys like the arrow keys or home also don't move the cursor but instead select different tools in the note toolbar. I assume that is the same problem.
-
I think that's also been described here: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/108717/user-feedback-on-page-number-navigation-in-zotero-pdf-reader
-
I see. Maybe it makes sense to clarify in the Documentation that changing the setting might lead to problems on Linux systems, but it might of course also just be my specific configuration that's so problematic.
-
Yes, it's still there in 7.0.0-beta.56+9edfcba9a.
-
Oh, sorry, I didn't see that.
-
If I may I would add that it would be nice if the annotation list could also be filtered by tag or colour, just as in the reader's annotation pane. And I personally would prefer it if the annotations were already shown when selecting the parent item.
-
Just another small observation: When I open the Notes tab in the righthand pane, the white line is not visible.
-
I've noticed another small thing: On a system where I'm using a very light accent colour, the white Zotero font is quite hard to read: https://i.imgur.com/o2pR9ZU.png

Eccentric? There's dozens of us, dozens! But I appreciate you looking into it!
