188BET靠谱吗I want to fix the column width even though I maximize zotero window, such as column"year", "note".I don't want to maximize these columns.I just let me see more column within the field of vision.

Many thanks!

Can you explain step by step what you're doing and what happens?Provide screenshots.

ok, I have update my question, thanks a lot

That's not a bug, but I see why you would want to do that.We'll consider adding support for this.

I also have this problem with the new version 6.0.5.I have enlarged the width of the title column.188BET靠谱吗However, when I maximize the window of Zotero, and then restore the window size, my adjustment of the column width is lost.

Thanks for your reply.We know the contents in "attachment","note","Year" etc columns are relatively short while The "title" column is long.Also, we want to see more words in title column.However, when I exchange the window from maxium to common size, all the columns are minimize and I cannot see the content in creator, year columns ,just like this https://photos.app.goo.gl/r3TLTjiW4qpXCJst7
188BET靠谱吗I wish zotero just like endnote can fix column width, it is very perfect!
Please consider my suggestions
Also forget me for my poor English

Many Thanks

scroll bar could be a better tool

188BET靠谱吗I could reproduce this in Zotero 6.0.5.

If you keep repeating "Maximize" followed by "Restore Down", the columns end up being equally spaced.The same happens if you grab the the window's border to minimize/maximize its width.Perhaps a horizontal scroll bar could help?

This problem persists in 6.0.7-beta.1+5e0674b84 (Windows 11)

@xingli1104I cannot agree with you more.188BET靠谱吗I also wish zotero can fix column width, just like ENDNOTE!In ENDNOTE, you can adjust the column width to any width without affecting the width of the other columns, because there is a sliding bar at the bottom of the endnote window.You can even double-click on the dividing line between two columns to automatically adjust the column width to show the entire contents of the left column.188BET靠谱吗As for me, this is the only advantage of ENDNOTE now, after zotero6.0.6 allow adding multiple sources at once in classic citation dialog.

188BET靠谱吗By the way, when you click on an item, is it possibility to preview the pdf in the information section on the right side of zotero, though you can do this by a plugin named zoteroquicklook and a software named quicklook.Then, you may switch entries slower, I don't kwon if it is a good idea, because ENDNOTEX20 elimination of this function, you can only use this in ENDNOTEX9, this make ENDNOTE worse.

Same issue here.Plus it happens if I switch from laptop screen to external and back (always in fullscreen mode).Screens do not have the same aspect ratio/resolution: 2048x1152 and 1920x1200

This is fixed in the latest 188BET靠谱吗Zotero beta188BET靠谱吗, and the fix will be included in Zotero 6.0.7 soon.

Zhoclzo

Many thanks for the fix.

dstillman

188BET靠谱吗Zotero 6.0.7 is available now with the fix.

Zhoclzo

Thanks a lot for the update!

Wilson411424

@dstillmanThanks a lot first.However, may be a new bug has appeared.When you click the dividing line between two columns or adjust the width of a column, the column width of the title column will become wider and the column width of the other columns will gradually become narrower until the narrowest.

dstillman

@Wilson411424: That's fixed in the beta for 6.0.8.

Hey!

There are many topics related to column width adjustment, so I'm unsure to which one I should post to, but I chose this since @Wilson411424'searlier comment describes my problem too.188BET靠谱吗Basically, in "[PROGRAM X" you can adjust the column width to any width without affecting the width of the other columns", which is not what Zotero does, which makes adjusting column width quite tedious for me at least.188BET靠谱吗I'm running Zotero 6.0.26.

Are there any comments from the developers concerning this?

Hey @dstillman!I hope you don't mind me pinging you into this topic.Please see my earlier post regarding my problems with column width adjustments affecting the neighboring columns, as described by @Wilson411424.
