(Get the code!)
This does not create a bug report, but it worked in 0.66 and now does not work correctly in 0.67.
I keep all external files (primarily PDF's) in a single Media folder in my main Notes folder. It is not part of the Wiki link structure directly, but whenever I need to link to one of the files, I use the Browse button to navigate to it directly - this makes the external files easier to look through instead of seeking out individual attachment folders within each page.
While the Browse button leads to the same window, and I can find the Media folder and all its contents within the Link widget, it creates a faulty file path in the link.
The page at
ToDo List
->Learning
->->Further Reading
->->->Books
->->->->From Religion to Philosophy
->->->->->Full Text
has a link named PDF that should navigate to
C:\Users\
Philosophy.pdf
(copied from File Explorer pathbar)
It creates the link
..\Media\From Religion to Philosophy.pdf
and clicking on it gives the message
No such file or folder:
C:\Users\
\Further_
The file or folder you specified does not exist.
Please check if you the path is correct. [sic]
If I manually paste the file path into the Edit Link widget, the same error results.
If I try to manually edit in more "..\"s, they are automatically deleted.
Links to PDFs created prior to the switch to 0.67 are unaffected and still pull up the PDF correctly.
If I copy "../../
../..
it changes to
~\Notebooks\
and clicking on it gives
No such file or folder: C:\Users\
Religion to Philosophy.pdf
The file or folder you specified does not exist.
Please check if you the path is correct. [sic]
If I copy "../../
../..
it changes to
~\Notebooks\
and clicking on it gives
No such file or folder: C:\Users\
Religion to Philosophy.pdf
The file or folder you specified does not exist.
Please check if you the path is correct. [sic]
If I edit the Notes folder into the automatically generated link to create
~\Notebooks\
it changes to
..\Media\From Religion to Philosophy.pdf
and clicking on it gives
No such file or folder: C:\Users\
\Learning\
The file or folder you specified does not exist.
Please check if you the path is correct. [sic]
If I change one of the working links at an analogous hierarchy level from
../..
to
../..
it changes to
..\Media\From Religion to Philosophy.pdf
and clicking it gives
No such file or folder: C:\Users\
\Learning\
The file or folder you specified does not exist.
Please check if you the path is correct. [sic]
If I replace the formerly working link with its original file path
../..
it changes to
..\Media\Alvin Toffler - Future Shock.pdf
and gives
No such file or folder: C:\Users\
\Learning\
The file or folder you specified does not exist.
Please check if you the path is correct. [sic]
