That way the colleague / supervisor can make changes and comments without affecting my original work and I can then easily see the comments and incorporate them into my working copy.Īlthough I haven't verified this recently, this 'problem' occurs with other bib management software (BMS) such as EndNote and Mandeley. I turn on track changes in the copy I forward to my colleague.
The way I handle this is to always share a copy of my working document that has all field codes removed. I suppose that you are sharing your document with a colleague or a supervisor.
Zotero will automatically update the manuscript to reflect the insertion of the new reference and the reference numbers will change. In your post on another thread it appeared to me that you were complaining that when you entered a new reference (before the end of your document while using a numbered style such as Vancouver) and the reference numbers updated you object to track changes marking the updated numbers being flagged as changes.
