So excited right now. Landing page and design seems quite promising.
Come aboard!
Although I haven’t start using it, and not sure how MN4 experience would be, at least today, I feels like time I’ve been waiting for so long is finally worth it.
I hope there will be official announcement about MN4 updates soon.
Thanks for the MN team.
Anybody knows what “External File Source” with Zotero means? I mean I can actually point marginnote to the cryptic local Zotero File Path with random Number/Letter-Combinations but that’s super-inconvient and annotations still can’t be synced between these two, right? (This sync would be a dream though.)
Hey, this is pretty straightforward. Have you tried setting an external folder? It simply makes documents in that folder available within MarginNote. Those documents behave the same as those in the local folder
Thanks! So it’s more a shared source forder thing but Marginnote doesn’t have Zotero’s annotations (like the Zotlit plugin in Obsidian).
For anyone interested, this is translated manual for Zotero-Marginnote from the chinese manual which seems to be partly online again.
Would be great to see Zotero and Marginnote synchronise annotations in the future! The perspective of having Marginnote as kinda the annotation editor for Zotero would be really awesome.
I would like to also please ask for full zotero support. And i am not sure i understand the ai excerpt mentioned. Could someone please explain what is it supposed to be helping with?
So, is there a way to open MN3 study files on MN4? I can’t seem to be able to do so. I really want to check out the new version by I’m working on a study doc on MN3!
Is there a summary of MN4 features relative to MN3 somewhere? Or any English-language documentation?
This is not obvious to me from the product information provided in the App Store.
Can this be done in ipad environment only? I just have iphone and ipad with MN4 max. I upgraded just to get the zotero working with marginnote. Is there any tutorial?
I’m unsure about the iPad only condition. From what I remember reading elsewhere (memory may be flawed), the iPad cannot access “external” files. MarginNote (again if I recall correctly) has said that this is due to limitations in the iPad OS. I seem to recall other apps that work with files from other apps but their use of those may be limited compared to what MN needs.
All that being said, you can find the instructions for working with Zotero in the Chinese manual (MarginNote is translating these if we are to believe them). You can use Chrome to auto translate the manual page found here: 连接Zotero文档库插件配置🌟
The translation isn’t perfect, I don’t have a need for this so did not test it but hopefully it helps.
Ah, it does have this statement (translated) at the end of the help page: “2. Zotero on iPad will not be able to open PDF documents in linked format”
on a separate point: I’ve been going between liquidtext and marginnote. One thing liquidtext can do is draw a line linking two documents together - with no use of the canvas/mindmap part at all. Is this possible now in marginnote? For example, if an appendix is a different PDF to the original doc, can I create a link between “see appendix A” on the main doc, and the other PDF Appendix A?
