  • The simplest way to implement this would be to treat notes as annotations in the sidebar - there could be a Add Note button at the bottom, and then general item notes could be edited live in the sidebar much as annotation notes can be.
  • There does seem to be something going on after leaving Zotero running for a while and opening lots of PDFs in the viewer (and then closing them). CPU usage on a MacBook M1 can remain at over 25-30% even when Zotero isn't doing anything. Closing and …
  • There is a helpful Twitter thread on the role of the Z-symbol by a leading scholar on Russia: https://twitter.com/kamilkazani/status/1500495309595725831?s=21 Washington Post article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/03/09/letter-z-russi…

  • @dstillman makes a good suggestion, but there is a use common case which can be significantly improved by viewing all of these three things at the same time: - Zotero library - PDF main content - PDF references section This use case presents when …
  • That's excellent, quick work, thank you! One thing to have on a long term wish list might be nesting of variables in the advanced search, to demonstrate visually how Creator contains Author, Book Author, and Editor. E.g.: Creator –Author -Book Aut…
  • I'd like to add to this by suggesting that 'Author' and 'Book Author' be added to the list of fields available to search (in addition to 'Creator'). If I am searching for book chapters by a particular author, Zotero returns unexpected results becau…
