Checked with the latest development build (copy version output from About dialog)

  • I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

JavaFX 23.0.1+4

  1. Go to the General tab
  2. Try to link to a file (PDF)
  3. Doesn't work. You can select a file, but its name doesn't come up on the file window, and the file name isn't added to the biblatex record.
