Great thanks @mjthoraval! Can’t wait to check this out.
-
Thanks @mjthoraval! This had also escaped me as a possibility, that will solve at least one pain point (although would still love a way to have an annotation across two pages!)
-
Thanks so much for this script! It's one other thing that has stopped me moving over to Zotero 7, since this function in Zutilo is essential for me.

This is fantastic - it's definitely a reason I've been hanging on to the Classic Citation dialog. But unless I'm missing something, the 'selected items' feature doesn't work when using the Quick Format dialog button within notes - I can see my open …

Agree with @SorenKF - this is a small thing, but agree that it interrupts the otherwise excellent note-taking flow!

Just in case anyone else also comes across this and is wondering how the default interface can insert items, it's in Zotero 7: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/454090#Comment_454090

I do a similar thing using RIS - export to .csv then in Excel or Google Sheets, on another tab, I have formulas that add the RIS tags. I copy these into a text or code editor, save it as a .ris file and import. I just use RIS rather than Bibtex as i…

Looks like it is possible again: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/406054#Comment_406054 You would just have to change the css code in this to set a background colour:https://www.w3docs.com/snippets/html/how-to-set-background-color-in-ht…

I don't think this exists yet, I'm hoping it may be part of the plan with the other annotation improvements that are coming. Absolutely agree that batch tagging would be key to speeding up workflow - at the moment, because you can't yet use annotati…

@cleonett - I tried to have a look at the code to see if I could help, but all I got was html for a webpage rather than a style. Nevertheless, these are likely to be easy fixes - I recommend you try using the Visual CSL editor (https://editor.cita…

@AlyssaK - the reason for this appears to be that AGLC4 says that subsequent references for secondary sources by default do not include the title (or short title), unless another work by the same author has already been cited. This is one of those r…

Thanks - I did upgrade to Zotero 6.0.5 but can't get that to open. I've followed the instructions so will send through the file with a link to this thread.

Unfortunately, this has now recurred - again, it seemed to be triggered by using the 'Add to note' option on right-click. It generated a Report ID 319762837, but when I tried to restart with debug output logging, it crashed. Force-quitting, restarti…

Ah, thanks for clarifying @dstillman! I thought that I'd used it for more than two letters in the past, but it isn't a function I use very frequently.
-
Sorry, I meant the application crashed three times, each when I tried to 'add to note'. It may just have been something else going on my computer - it was having some difficulties yesterday so I did a number of cleanups and (touch wood) today it is …

Each time (I think three times so far) I was highlighting a PDF within Zotero. It triggered three times when I then tried to 'add to note' (with a standalone note). The document was already half-annotated, and would work for a few more annotations e…

Re 1 - yes, I don't think I ever realised that. I rarely have a lot of subfolders, so it's not usually an issue for me. Re 2 - you can change the quick search to 'All fields & tags' using the dropdown arrow in the quick search field, although p…
-
Re 1 - this already exists. If you are in the library pane, you can start typing the folder name and it will navigate to the collection. Re 2 - the quick search field also has an option to search all fields (use the dropdown to change this). You ca…

You’re not doing anything wrong. The omit author only works with authors, not with titles (which is what the case name is). I’m not sure if there’s a workaround but I just find it easiest to deal with this at the end when I am finalising the docum…
-
In most PDF editors, comments are different from highlights - certainly Acrobat Pro sees them as different types. There’s a ton of pdf editors out there so if there first one I linked to removed all annotations, then there’s bound to be one that wil…
-
If you want to go back to using Preview, it’s easy enough to switch preferences. But personally I think the new reader is terrific and the annotations and notes have really improved my workflow. Not everyone wants to change their workflow, and I thi…

On top of the other suggestions, I use a saved search to show everything I’ve added in the past week. Then I clean the data up at the end of the week.

Ah sorry - I was referring to the desktop version! I don't tend to read long documents on ios, so hadn't noticed it wasn't there. Makes sense if they could add it. For my simple needs, the navigation thumbnails down the bottom tend to be enough. Th…

Can I suggest you just delete all the comments before using Zotero's import function? I have a memory of Acrobat Pro's batch processing features (I no longer subscribe so can't check), but it looks like there is other PDF software that will do it to…

While I don't think you can create your own bookmarks, you can see the contents if your PDFs are properly formatted already to include them, which they should be for textbooks and anything official (not always for self-published material or grey lit…
-
While it is great that items can be in multiple folders at once (once you get used to it, you realise why that makes sense), you can also move items from one collection to another by holding down Cmd (on a Mac, I assume Ctrl on a Windows) and draggi…

I agree @dmvalmadre - the more you work with it, the more you realise it is a different workflow, but a much better workflow than Zotfile (and I say that as a huge Zotfile fan). @astroHao - I agree that there's a need for better documentation, and w…

Unfortunately, I couldn't get a Debug ID as Zotero would just hang every time I started up and I couldn't enable anything in the menus. In the end, I uninstalled Zotero and reinstalled, and that seems to have fixed the issue (at least for now!)

No - the annotations don't automatically become notes, but it's easy to either add them as notes (just right-click or drag and drop into an existing note) or create a note from annotations (there's a button in the Note pane to automatically create e…
