Hi again, @martynas_b, sure! I'll do that now, thank you for your attention. I had to do it via WeTransfer, though, I hope that's not an issue for you. As for their state, I'll send them just as I have them here on my library and on the WebDAV serv…
-
@dstillman I’m sorry for the harsh language and now the bump and tag, and for not having checked these beta updates sooner, but surely you can now agree, in light of these examples, that this is a very serious regression, right? Example #3 was, IIR…

Okay, so here are a couple of examples: https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u6505448/n1n5mjmej3ouwx7hhpp1.jpg This is a scanned document, with the default light theme. https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u6505448/efosu…

No, no, NOOOO! (insert Michael Scott screaming GIF) I'm sorry for the strongly-worded comment, but it is what it is: this new functionality is ABYSMAL for scanned book/document PDFs. It completely borked the dark mode content view for anything but …
-
Okay, I've finally gotten around to installing the latest beta on one of my machines and testing it out. YES! Finally! The feature is already functional enough to suit my needs as it is. However, and seeing how we're here to give out feedback, the …
-
I don't know how long it will take until this feature becomes available on an actual stable release, and also that working with beta releases in a production environment is a terrible idea, but I've actually been missing this kind of search function…
-
@anhly while I was testing it – I've since moved to an all-webDAV solution, but for a few months I was indeed using the Zotero 7 betas and Attanger –, it certainly seemed to be the case. It's great that the community came together once again. As fo…
-
Congratulations and thanks to all in the team, it's been an honour to follow your work over this beta cycle! I think I'll hop off the 7.0.x betas, though, as with a thesis to write, it's probably a good idea to only use 100% tested and stable softw…
-
@dstillman thank you for your feedback, and sorry for the long report, I'll try to be more concise next time. There did seem to be some weird behaviour with my shortcuts still… I'll check if I can reproduce it across systems, after a reboot, etc., …
-
@mikisan that looks, indeed, like a more extreme case of what I just mention. However, isn't that something you can fix in Windows's own Regional/Date & Time settings? IIRC, leading zeros are related to date formats, and it seems those (DD/MM/YY…
-
@dstillman Cool, thank you for your attention! The main advantage is having all dates lining up neatly, which, in my case, is especially nice because I don't care much for the super granular time, only date. This allows me to size the correspondin…
-
Hi guys! Huge kudos on this gigantic achievement, it must've been a well kept secret. Even the icon, something I consider myself a bit of an expert in, was properly optimized for small sizes and non-retina screens (as was the old hexagonal one, of c…
-
Hey all! The new theme from the latest alpha version of Night, for Zotero 7, is much closer to my attempt at a native one, as while we've seemingly lost the ability to reskin the contextual menus to a dark theme, at least they look native, and the i…
-
@liminghuiable splendid news! As promised, I may try a transition to Zotero 7, then… Do you fellow users and devs reckon it will be stable enough (or close to being so) as a daily driver on at least one of my machines (i.e. is it safe enough for it…
-
I have been using the Night plugin by @ThomasJorna, but I heavily customized the css stylesheet on the Nord theme so it uses by default to use more neutral dark colors, closer to macOS's default, and Apple's own SF fonts instead of the outdated Luci…
-
@dennisneise Zotero 7, currently in Beta, is already a Universal app, and according to developers, it should be out this year. Even if it does get delayed, it will be out well in time before Apple deprecates Rosetta 2. You should, however, check if …
-
@megesgir thank you! Well, you can always use the version I linked to, it's as close as possible to the original icon while being Big Sur-compliant. ;) As for the developers, please excuse me the shameless plug and bump, but Zotero 7 would be a per…
-
@dstillman fair enough, and please excuse me my speculation; after such a definitive statement, I trust you did your best in communicating with the developer and that the message was properly received. Thank you for the heads up and for your patienc…
-
@dstillman That seems clear to you, but if a few more weeks pass with no updates (i.e. the definitive reinstatement of “the-plugin-formerly-known-as-‘Zotero File’” with a different name), it will be safe to assume that in the otherwise perfectly leg…
-
@enozkan of course we don't need ZotFile for that (in my case, that's what I am using it for, even though I have considered the slightly more complex route of setting up a WebDAV server), but having to run terminal commands still feels finicky and i…
-
@cristianbrodbeck Thanks! I’ve since done an even better version, in which I smoothed over all the resizing artifacts, but it’s still not perfect, as I had to resort a lot to cloning and retouching with the healing brush. If Zotero wanted to do a c…
-
@dararii not only that, some may only be able to buy the shamefully gimped 256 GB SSD M2 models… In any case, judging by how great of an update Zotero 6 was, the devs must have *a lot* of free time now to pour into the transition into Apple Silicon,…
-
@chrisgrieser meh, I've just checked one of my already approved icons (for LibreOffice) and, sadly, it seems macOSicons mangles our careful design work towards neat and compliant ICNS packages; it just takes the PNG file from the 512x512@2x instance…
-
As for Zotero devs… Will you take another look into this? The desktop icon looks even more out of place in iOS/iPadOS, and I'm guessing the final release must be drawing closer, so, yep. ;)
-
@justinschmidt thank you for the compliment!
-
@chrisgrieser you're welcome, and thank you for that resource, as well! I've just created an account there and finished uploading 60 Big Sur/Monterey-compliant icons of my own over there for a lot of apps and folders. Once they do get approved, you…
-
Any updates on this homebrew attempt at customising Zotero's interface on the Mac, @nickdvlpr ? Also, your screenshots are no longer accessible…
-
@ngmahfouz while I would normally agree with the two-tiered approach which you're proposing, when it comes to Zotero in particular, it doesn't seem like a great idea, and I'll play “devil's advocate” here for a bit now. As was already stated, Zoter…
-
Hey guys! Just a quick reminder, LibreOffice 7.2.0 for Apple Silicon was finally released… which means Zotero is now the last non-native link in many academics' toolset chain. I finally have access to M1 machines, and will do some tests to see how …
-
Also, for what it's worth, at least another freeware software developer took in a similar offer, namely Maarten Foukhar from Burn: https://burn-osx.sourceforge.io/Pages/English/home.html (he still hasn't updated the website, but the latest Universal…
