There should be a user pref to select the desired output format.

As discussed here, there's also the possibility of using the domain of the page in the active window to determine copied format, with user-definable mappings.

This could also be done via drag-and-drop, though that should be a separate ticket.

Unfortunately, until Gecko/OS X supports rich text copy this would have to be limited to Markdown-style formats on Macs, but this would probably be most useful for blogs, Wikipedia and the like anyway.

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

(In [1178]) Closes #405, Pressing copy keystroke with item selected should copy citation to clipboard

Shortcut key defaults to "C"

Abstracted clipboard logic in Zotero_File_Interface._doBibliographyOptions() to separate function, Z_F_I.copyItemsToClipboard(items, style), which ZoteroPane.copySelectedItemsToClipboard() calls

Currently limited to citation styles, but there's no reason it couldn't support export formats, etc.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
