- Add high-res webpage icon
- Show webpage icon in grayscale when no translator (except on hover, for fun)
- Remove pre-Australis icons
- Switch to CustomizableUI API for toolbar icon
- Move icon generation code to separate file
- Add Zotero.hiRes flag for Retina/etc. displays (available only after a window
has loaded)
Known issues:
- While the gray is mostly to be less distracting, the gray/color distinction
will probably be lost on most people. A separate guidance panel for the gray
icon might help.
- On pages with frames, the webpage icon appears first and then is replaced
with a translator icon.
- Each column in the middle pane can now have its own persistent
secondary sort column, configurable from a new submenu in the column
picker menu (top right of items list). The settings are stored in
extensions.zotero.secondarySort.[primaryField]. The submenu title
includes the current primary field (e.g., "Secondary Sort (Creator)"),
which is pretty weird, and I'm not sure I want to keep it, but it does
convey that the setting is specific to the selected column.
- The fallback sort fields (firstCreator, date, title, dateAdded) are
now configurable via the extensions.zotero.fallbackSort. Setting that
pref to an empty string avoids all fallback sorts, which
allows reverse-order clicking to set the order, as requested by
@aurimasv in #275.
- The previous behavior of sorting based on the exact Creator string
(rather than the actual creators) can now be restored with the
extensions.zotero.sortCreatorAsString pref. (It simply circumvents all
the newer code, so it's pretty safe.) This setting should result in
faster sorting in large libraries that have many items with the same
Creator string.
- Some of the lesser fields in the column picker menu are now in the
More Columns submenu (which is now alphabetical)
- The "Type" column is now the less-ambiguous "Item Type".
- This uses a different method to modify the column picker menu that is
simultaneously less and more hacky. (It no longer has to duplicate
Mozilla code in a custom XBL binding that wouldn't reflect future
upstream changes, and instead it bushwhacks its way through various
boxObject properties to get to the underlying menupopup.)
FT sync is enabled by default for new users and configurable in the Sync
prefs.
Also disable downgrades once full-text sync is enabled, since otherwise
someone switching back and forth between old and new versions could miss
full-text content updates.
Trigger a proxy authentication prompt at startup if a PAC file is
installed and one of a few randomly chosen big sites requires a proxy.
This also improves general proxy detection by not making a request
to S3 unless it would actually be proxied.
It's not clear when this became an issue, but our usual background HTTP
requests (set that way to avoid triggering auth prompts when saving from
websites) weren't triggering proxy authentication dialogs, which was breaking
most network activity in Standalone. To fix this, we now make a foreground
request at startup to a file on S3 and resolve the Zotero.proxyAuthComplete
promise when we're done. Any network requests that want to wait for proxy
authentication can wait for that promise.
This behavior can be disabled via the triggerProxyAuthentication hidden pref.
Adds three new preferences controlling whether a new collection is created upon import:
- extensions.zotero.import.createNewCollection.fromFile
Controls whether a new collection is created by import from cog menu
- extensions.zotero.import.createNewCollection.fromClipboard
Controls whether a new collection is created by import from clipboard
- extensions.zotero.import.createNewCollection.fromFileOpenHandler
Controls whether a new collection is created when import is initiated by
double-clicking a file or by dragging it over Zotero. This preference applies only to
Zotero Standalone, and is configurable in the dialog that appears asking the user
to confirm the import.
Closes#19, [papercuts] (26) Clipboard import into an open collection
Falls back to /usr/bin/xdg-open by default, configurable via
extensions.zotero.fallbackLauncher.unix (or .windows, though that
should be much rarer). Also used for file revealing.
If xdg-open fails, files launch via the external helper app dialog and
URLs just don't work.
Can choose to download files "at sync time" or "as needed"
On-demand defaults to on, but remains off for existing users
To-do:
- Handling of local and remote file changes on on-demand download
(currently if a file exists it isn't downloaded, which means a
remotely modified file won't be redownloaded in on-demand mode)
- Additional control over file downloading and retention
Other changes:
- Overhauled entire file syncing architecture
- Replaced numAttachments column with Note and Attachment columns with
dynamic icons to indicate status
- Double-clicking a parent with a missing best attachment and on-demand
downloading off no longer loads the parent URL
- Bugs
Does not currently support sorting or citation editor, and has not been tested on any platform but OS X, so off by default for now. Can be enabled with the hidden pref extensions.zotero.integration.quickFormat.
- Closes#1831, Connectors should be able to save via API in the absence of Zotero Standalone
- Fixes Zotero.Utilities.deepCopy() for arrays
- Fixes some circumstances where an error would not be saved for future error reporting
- Fixes connector status checking
- Implement connector for Firefox (should switch in/out of connector mode automatically when Standalone is launched or closed, although this has only been tested extensively on OS X)
- Share core translation code between Zotero and connectors
Still to be done:
- Run translators in non-Fx connectors (this works in theory, but it's not currently enabled for any translators)
- Show translation results in non-Fx connectors
- Ability to translate to server when Zotero Standalone is not running
also adds a parameter to disable proxy redirection by domain (although if I had known how much work would be involved in implementing this before I started, I wouldn't have bothered)
