This should make it much easier to debug startup errors, particularly in
Standalone.
This also adds a general mechanism to set Zotero initialization options via
command-line flags.
- Close Zotero pane before database is closed prior to reload, instead
of waiting until reload is complete
- Show an error message if Zotero Standalone is not accessible when it
should be
- New tag colors support, with the ability to assign colors to up to 6
tags per library. Tags with colors assigned will show up at the top of
the tag selector and can be added to (and removed from) selected items
by pressing the 1-6 keys on the keyboard. The tags will show up as
color swatches before an item's title in the items list.
- Synced settings, with Notifier triggers when they change and
accessible via the API (currently restricted on the server to
'tagColors', but available for other things upon request)
- Silent DB upgrades for backwards-compatible changes. We'll do
something fancier with async DB queries in 4.0, but this will work for
changes that can be made without breaking compatibility with older
clients, like the creation of new tables. The 'userdata' value is
capped at 76, while further increments go to 'userdata2'.
TODO:
- Try to avoid jitter when redrawing swatches
- Optimize tag color images for retina displays
- Redo attachment dots in flat style?
- Clear all colors from an item with 0 (as in Thunderbird), but I don't
think we can do this without undo
- New promise-based architecture
- Library-specific file sync queues, allowing other libraries to
continue if there's an error in one library
- Library-specific sync errors, with error icons next to each library
- Changed file uploading in on-demand download mode, which had been missing
- On-demand download progress indicator in middle pane
- More accurate progress indicator
- Various tweaks and bug fixes
- Various future tweaks and bug fixes
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.
