Not sure if this is related, but fyi: iOS: Switching light/dark appearance changes page position
-
If the page is zoomed in, that context appears to be lost as well. (1.0.8 build #2) Not sure if this is related, but fyi: [iOS beta] [Bug - UI - Regression] PDF viewer loses zoom state (Testflight v.1.0.8 build #2)

Ahh, that makes sense - the first thing I do most mornings is to add the daily newspaper to Zotero (via the iOS share sheet connector), and then I open the actual Zotero app for reading/markup; the app itself hasn't had a chance to sync any incoming…

You're welcome, @dstillman, and thank you for the update. It's reassuring that you found something, since this happened again last night. (Details: four new items were created in the Windows client via the browser extension; many hours later, sim…

@adamsmith: For an individual item, sure, you can just check the web library. That would work for limited testing purposes. For a regular user (and especially for frequent users) of the app (with, e.g. hundreds or thousands of items) encountering t…

Thanks. - (Each of the above debug traces spanned both an app start and a sync / refresh request, but that's the best I could do.) Is there a practical way for a normal user to "confirm that any data (they) added on the phone has been uploaded", th…

Minor update: URLs can be tapped on the 'info' screen, but not from the 'edit' screen.

Related: [iOS] Possible to automatically save source URL when saving a PDF? - June 28, 2022

Correction to the above... it appears to have changed between 1.0.7 build 1 and 1.0.7 build 2. Any URLs entered in previous builds are still visible (and colored / highlighted as such)in later ones, but they are ~not~ clickable in 1.0.7 Build 2 and…

Related to your first question: Put data and files on your own server - 22 June 2022
-
Whether or not it was what the original poster meant, I was envisioning something like: In the Zotero desktop app itself (not 'Zotero Connector'), if an item had a 'doi:' URI within a metadata field (such as 'extra:similar:' or perhaps a list of th…

While intercepting links in a normal browser presents issues, couldn't this still be allowed in the Zotero application* itself? (* even if it is built on ~top~ of a browser engine, it's not exposing a normal web browsing user interface)
-
You did not make a mistake. Field editing on iOS for ~attachments without parent items~ ('Accessed' & 'URL' fields) was still working as of the latest 1.0.4 Testflight build. It no longer works in 1.0.6, 1.0.7 from build #2, or 1.0.8. I'm not …

Yes, something similar will absolutely work on macOS!
-
Reports of success (or even a summary of why your endeavor ~didn’t~ succeed) would be appreciated. P.S. Thanks to Adam for the clarifications!

I do not know if this is possible within Zotero itself, but: You could use a free general file/folder tool such as “WinDirStat” (for Windows) or OmniDiskSweeper” (for macOS) to sort the contents of the storage folder by size. You would still have …
-
While the Zotero server software appears to be open source[1], there might be additional bits that need to be integrated to make it work elsewhere. For example, it appears their server may be designed to store files on Amazon’s S3 service, so you…

Even if notes cannot be added outside of the page area (bounding box) of the PDF, they still could be _displayed_ there by a custom viewer. - - For example, in-band (text) metadata could be included in a note causing the Zotero PDF viewer to disp…
-
I just realized that _selecting_ text in the Zotero iOS PDF viewer appears to use the default iOS text selection system, with the blue text selection ‘handles’ at each end. A simple solution may be to, when the highlight tool is invoked and some te…

Perhaps Zotero could implement bookmarks as a special kind of annotation (that is, hidden by default but appearing in exported annotated PDFs, e.g. as “Page bookmarked in Zotero; Description: ______”). In other words, they would have nothing to do …
