  • "Quality > Look up full text document" is great, but what if I want to do this for all entries?
  • It has no shortcut and it is not in the list of key bindings.
  • Also, if I have multiple entries selected, it only processes the first one.

Version 3.3

I fully agree with you, that would be a great enhancement 👍 . Stumbled across this a couple of days ago, too.

Good enhancement indeed! Although we need a completely new workflow for it.
My suggestion:

Easy:

  • progress bar downloading all stuff in the background, auto renaming and linking files, just a message dialog how many files could be linked.

Downsides: A lot of wrong downloads could be there.

Advanced:

  • Big window like merge dialog
  • On the left list of all entries (key, author, title)
  • On the right possibility for a larger PDF preview to judge if the download is correct
  • Download is triggered in the background
  • Some options to correct/delete wrong files

I have the same issue. Is there any alternative methods to achieve that?(I mean downloading full text for all the entries I selected)

@oscargus This was implemented by you a few weeks ago right? Inside the main menu quality - lookup full text document? If so, we should rename the description to Retrieve full text documents for the whole library or anything alike.

@vogler @envhyf You can find the functionality under quality - lookup full text documents. Just select multiple documents (but not to many 😄 )

Follow up at #2344

There is no shortcut. Maybe Ctrl + F7 as F7 is "Automatically set file links" and Shift + F7 is "Find unlinked files"?
