1. Toolbarbuttons changes:
1. “New Library” moved from toolbar to File menu
2. “New note” on click makes a standalone note
3. “New attachment” on click adds stored copy of a file
4. Menuitems from old note or attachment menus moved to the File menu
5. “Advanced search” removed. Sync and Locate buttons moved to the top-right corner (Locate - temporarily)
6. Added “Opened tabs” toolbarbutton
7. Updated tooltips
2. Added a toolbarbutton that reveals collection search field on click. Search field is hidden on blur if empty. Keyboard accessibility via tab/shift-tab.
3. Tab based navigation restructuring. For each component, create a mapping of target ids with desired focus destination for each relevant keyboard event and use that to determine where to move focus next. Fixed bugs with focus wraparound not working when a note or attachment is opened in contextMenu.
4. Make quick-search dropmarker a sibling of the textfield. QuickSearchTextbox does not extend search-textfield anymore. It serves as a container to house dropmarker and textfield as siblings. This is needed to remove focus ring from quick search textbook when focus moves onto the dropmarker.
5. Separate toolbars for item and collection trees. Removed unused code manually setting the width of toolbar section
6. Focusable tabs + keyboard navigation:
1. Shift-tab from opened tabs menu moves focus to the currently opened tab
2. When a tab has focus, use left/right arrows to select tabs, or CMD/Ctrl + arrows to move focus between tabs
3. Enter or Space on a focused tab will select it if needed and move focus to the contentPane of the reader of this tab
4. Shift-tab from tabs wraps focus around to itemTree or itemPane
7. “New collection” creates collection contextually within currently selected library or collection.
8. Items pane minimum width increase to avoid quicksearch from being squashed
9. Do not move focus to title field of itemBox after itemTypeMenu is closed with ESC.
10. Display all itemTypes without "Show more" submenu in "New Item" meunu. Removed "Store Copy of File" and "Link to File" from "New Item" menu.
- Sort the Open Documents section by reverse-open order and further by
reverse tab order (if unopened in this session).
- If Library is selected in the Zotero window, automatically show and
filter at the top selected items
- Move open-in prefs into reader prefs
- Move reader prefs up below File Handling
- Move new strings to Fluent
- Fix clicking on labels to focus open-in drop-downs
- Tweak text
- Move file-renaming prefs to separate prefs section
- Fix template preview not updating on paste
- Update documentation URL
- Tweak text, styling, and ids
- Change "Automatically rename attachment files using parent metadata"
to "Automatically rename locally added files" to reflect that
downloaded files are always renamed, and add an intro saying so
Firefox has switched on all platforms, Chrome and Edge on Windows use
"Settings", and we really don't want to have to say different things for
different platforms
(And update the en-US version with some strings that we don't use but
might if we updated to a slightly newer version of the updater before
they got rid of the dedicated update window)
So a custom build doesn't have to modify each .ftl file
`app-name` is redundant with the Firefox strings, but it's what we used
previously and is easier to remember.
From some 2017-era langpacks I had downloaded. These strings aren't in
current langpacks, which use a different update mechanism, but we're
bundling a modified version of updates.xhtml from Firefox.
- Show "More information" link next to relink option
- Automatically check relink option when coming from integration prompt
- Change done message to "[x] items were relinked" instead of "0 items
were imported"
New option only appears if importer version is < 1 or not present.
It will:
* Skip fetching collections and attachments
* Skip any new items
* Update relations on existing items
* Importer will now ask user for a login and password via form and will
perform sign-in directly using credentials rather than oauth
* Signing in this way enables importer to obtain desktop document ID
which is now stored for each item
* It's possible to switch back to the old method (ouath) by setting
`import.mendeleyUseOAuth` pref to `true`.
* New option to only import new items. This options only appears if
database contains previously imported items.
* Importer will now update mendeleyDB:documentUUID on existing items to
match value used in Mendeley Desktop if available
* Importer will no longer create collections when no new items are
imported * Importer will only report number of new items imported on
re-import * Importer will now preserve dateAdded on re-import

Now all included in `itemFields.`
We still use base-only fields as search conditions, and schema.json
consumers might want to do so as well, so it makes sense to include
them.
- Render cell text in its native direction
- Fix context menu positioning
- Fix item box (localizations needed)
- Fix column resizing
- Fix bidi text in collection tree
- Always right-align in RTL, always left-align in LTR.
I'm going off advice from this excellent guide for RTL website design
by Ahmad Shadeed: https://rtlstyling.com/posts/rtl-styling#tables
- Join creators in the tree ("Smith and Jones") using a format string to
support languages like Arabic and Hebrew where there shouldn't be a
space after the "and".
- Fix tabs
- Fix toolbar on Mac, flip icons on other platforms
When enabled:
- Double-clicking a PDF or choosing "Open PDF" opens a new window
- Shift-double-clicking opens a new tab
- "Open in New Window" locate option becomes "Open in New Tab" and has the
reverse behavior
Having the macOS Help button in a scrolling view feels kind of weird, but that's
what Apple is doing in the Ventura System Settings app, so I guess we go with
it. I like it better than Firefox's non-contextual "Firefox Support" button
under the pane list in their preferences, anyway - having pane-by-pane
contextual help buttons seems like good UX that there isn't a good reason for us
to ditch.
To allow creation of a standalone note with annotations from all the
selected top-level items and/or attachments. Annotations will be sorted
by the order of the items in the items list.
"Add Note from Annotations" remains when a single regular item or one or
more attachments under a single regular item are selected.
And remove all references to old id
We can do this because plugins will use new mechanisms for install and
update manifests that don't use the id (which also means it's now only
used internally).
We'll want to update the rest of the instances of "extensions" or
"add-ons" to say "plugins" (unless we think we might support themes, in
which case we can keep "add-ons").
Plugins are ZIPs containing at least these two files:
- manifest.json: A WebExtension MV2 manifest with basic metadata
properties and `applications.gecko` with `id` and `update_url`
- bootstrap.js: A bootstrap file, similar to old bootstrapped extensions,
with `installed()`, `startup()`, `shutdown()`, and `uninstalled()`
This is a confusing, bad option, which was already disabled in groups,
and this removes it from personal libraries as well. People seem to be
using it mainly because they think annotations are locked into Zotero if
they don't, which is causing them to ask for this to be done
automatically on every edit, which we don't do because it would result
in constant file syncing and file conflicts [1].
We provide multiple export options for exporting PDFs with annotations,
and people can use those when sharing a file with people who don't use
Zotero. Otherwise, if storing annotations in the file is a priority,
they can use an external reader that's not designed to be tightly
integrated into Zotero.
(As a rare hack, it's of course also possible to export the PDF with
annotations, replace the original file, and import the annotations.)

- Adjust text
- Add "Learn More" button with link to sync documentation for
set-up-sync notification
- Show "Don't Show Again" for set-up-sync even on first display
- Don't perform any action when clicking unlinked text
- Use yellow/orange background instead of blue for notification bar
- Prevent text from wrapping out of the bar at narrow window widths
- Use local variable for observer id
There are two:
- Sync never set up (no username in DB) / set up, but unlinked
- Sync set up but auto-sync disabled and sync not completed in 30 days
Checks are trigged on item adds.
- Show "Export Note…"/"Export Notes…" if only notes or attachments
selected
- Don't show export option if only attachments and no embedded notes
(was previously disabled, and still is if all notes or a mixture of
empty notes and attachments)
Closes#2265
There's also new code for showing a different icon for snapshots, files,
and DOI/URL links, like the web library and iOS app, but it's commented
out for now. The bitmap icons create too much visual noise with the
greater information density and hierarchical tree of the desktop app
(not to mention many more low-DPI displays). We can revisit after
switching to SVGs across the board.
Cmd/Ctrl-Shift-T is now used for reopening a closed tab
This is now a View menu option, so macOS users can assign an
app-specific shortcut key for it. For other platforms that can't do
that, Zutilo could add it, and it will be an option if we add general
key-binding configurability in a future version.
Closes#2281
- Select last reopened tab instead of opening all in background
- Rearrange Close/Close Other Tabs/Reopen Closed Tabs options
- Use proper plural for Reopen Closed Tab[s]
