  10. Zotero 7 Beta: Click on "URL" and "DOI" in the Item Pane

    by mjthoraval · January 27, 2024
    All these options are already accessible from a right-click on the field, or a drag-and-drop of the authors, so I guess the main purpose of these icons is for keyboard accessibility. But the same func
  11. Query answered

    by dstillman · January 7, 2024
    We haven't tested with Kurzweil specifically, but we're working on accessibility improvements for Zotero 7 to make it work much better with screenreaders, so there's a good chance that will help.

  15. Suggestion: a quick way to transform a child note into a standalone note
