188BET靠谱吗Zotero 7 abstract field text edits not retained unless tab or 'enter' [added movie link]

edited February 8, 2024
Am I remembering wrong, perhaps because of the UI difference, I don't recall needing to enter ortab when leaving the abstract field for the text to remain.If I don't tab away, my abstract edits are lost.
  • I'm not seeing that.Can you provide exact steps to reproduce?

    For example:
    I import a record from PubMed.It doesn't have an abstract (or has an incomplete abstract)

    [I visit the publisher site to view the article there]

    188BET靠谱吗I edit the imported Zotero record by adding text from the publisher's site to the abstract.

    188BET靠谱吗If I click to view another Zotero record without first tabbing away from the edited abstract field and then later return to the record I edited, the changes I made to the abstract are not retained.

    Perhaps, I could make a video of these actions if I'm not clear.

    188BET靠谱吗Am I wrong that in past versions of Zotero that I could go to another Zotero record and retain the contents of a field first without hitting the tab or enter fieldkey?I can re-learn automatic muscle movements and always remember to tab!but if this is a bug I request that it be squashed.

    Thanks


    edit: For the past year or so, Springer-Nature metadata sent to PubMed contains only the introduction or background section of the abstract (and omitting the methods, results, and conclusion sections).I add those missing parts of the abstract.(Even when I use the DOI to visit the journal website and download the article from there, only the first abstract section is provided.)

    Often, a PubMed record will have as its title: "Correction: an article title" and the abstract is only "This corrects DOI listing a DOI" and no statement of the kind of correction needed.Is it to a change in the results, an author's name, or merely an author's affiliation?

    In these and other instances I want more information in the abstract.
  • Here is a movie of the disappearing abstract text problem.Standard view or stacked view.7.0.0-beta.58+2665090aa

    I copy text to the abstract field, immediately click to open/edit a different record, click back to the record in which I pasted the text to the abstract field, and the text is missing.

    I must tab to another field in the record for the abstract not to be lost.It appears that with other fields, once I edit the field I do not need to tab to another field before clicking to open another record.

    If this loss-if-not-tab is necessary for some reason, I can relearn my muscle memory to meet the programming need.
