Append/Prepend data to field #265

Open joelparham opened 6 months ago

joelparham commented 6 months ago

Hello, I use Zotero and Zutilo extensively and my workflow would be exponentially improved if I was able to append/prepend data to a field. With Zutilo is there currently a way to do this? Or, is this something that can be added to future developments of Zutilo?

There is not a way to do this right now in Zutilo (and not in Zotero that I know of). How would it work? You would right-click a field and there would be options like "paste before/after current entry"?

The main issue with adding something like this to Zutilo right now is that I have not had time to get Zutilo working with Zotero 7 so far (see #248). Until that is done, I would not recommend trying to add anything to Zutilo.

Thanks for your response. I understand the need to prep for v7. I haven't fully thought about how the interface would function, but I know the end result I would like though. Your suggestion may be one such way to achieve this outcome.
