JabRef version

Latest development branch build (please note build date below)

Operating system

Windows

Details on version and operating system

Windows 10

Checked with the latest development build

  • I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
  • I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

  1. Library properties: Set pdf/ as directory
  2. Drag'n'drop a PDF onto an entry
  3. PDF is attached to the entry
  4. PDF is put in the directory of the .bib file

Expected behavior:

PDF is put into pdf/ sub directory

Notes

  • Note that the PDF still opens. Maybe some magic at JabRef's file open behavior?
  • If the PDF is moved into pdf/, the PDF still opens
