@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it uses by default to use more neutral dark colors, closer to macOS's default, and Apple's own SF fonts instead of the outdated Luci…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…
-
Any updates on this issue? My workflow revolves a lot around making annotations in Acrobat, and I absolutely must have pages labeled as they should, otherwise I risk inserting the wrong page numbers in citations when searching for said annotations. …
-
Another quick update: I swapped my old-school 24'' 1080p screen with a 27'' 4K one, running in 5K resolution downsampled to 4K to match the UI elements on the iMac's internal screen… Accordingly, I now no longer experience that @1x/@2x issue I and o…
-
Quick update: I only realized this today, but I don't need to take Zotero to fullscreen and back, a simple manual resize (which doesn't even have to wait for the operation to be finished, I can just drag down some pixels from the top edge of the win…
-
Oh, sorry, you're right, I misread that part, I must be tired or something. I can certainly use Zotero and do my ZotFile renaming operations (now I'm doing it using the keyboard after opening the contextual menus because they're all over the place …
-
Hi guys. I still have the external monitor issue, even though I'm not entirely sure it's the same manifestation thereof as it was supposedly fixed… So, my setup is a Hi-DPI built-in monitor (I'm using a 5K iMac) and an old-school 1080p 24'' Philips…

Hi ZenonMarko, Thank you for doing the grunt work of testing. I wanted to do it as well but I had my hands full with a scholarship application. I'm done with that now, so, to all the devs, if you want me to do further testing, please let me know. …
