Unable to trigger "ZotLit: Update literature note" with hotkey
I know this action is available from the kebab menu on the note pane, but I typically navigate the interface with my keyboard for actions like this. I am able to assign the hotkey in the settings, but the plugin doesn't respond to it.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open Zotero and Obsidian with ZotLit installed on both.
- Create a new literature note from Zotero.
- In Obsidian, open
Settings
>Hotkeys
and search "Update" in the search filter. - Give
ZotLit: Update literature note
a hotkey that is not currently being used. (For me,Ctrl + U
was free.) - In Zotero, make an edit that will appear in your literature note on an update, such as a new annotation.
- In Obsidian, navigate to your matching literature note, ensure cursor focus is in that tab/pane, and press your selected hotkey.
Result:
- No change in literature note.
- Triggering an update from the kebab menu works as expected.
- No warnings or errors provided by the Obsidian interface or in the inspector.
Other Notes:
- This does not seem to be an issue with Obsidian or this particular hotkey assignment. I moved the assignment to a different plugin (Zotero Integration) and the action fired as expected from them.
- This action also doesn't show up in the command pallet, so even though I can pin it there from the settings menu, it still doesn't show up and can't be activated by a few keystrokes.
- Closing Obsidian and launching it again does not fix this issue.
