Continuing the discussion from Obsidian Release v0.8.1 (insider build):
Thank you for the outliner plugin and now making it possible with a right-click to either open the note with a default md app, or to open the folder in which the flie is located. This makes it now possible to create a hook link ([hookproductivity.com](http://hook productivity.com)) so I can link the file to another file from another application.
Neat!
If I understand correctly, though, this is more a workaround than anythingāitās not yet possible to Hook into a note inside Obsidian, right? Youāre creating Hook links to the file on the filesystem and then opening it in other applications?
Correct it is a workaround that was actually always possible - but this makes it easier and more elegant compared to the crude way I had to do it.
This does require briefly opening Finder to create the Hook link, but hereās a way to make it fairly painlessā¦
Perhaps someone better at Keyboard Maestro ā @ryanjamurphy ? ā can help with this:
As I just wrote, Iām very happy about āShow in Folder.ā What Iād really like to use this for, however, is putting onto my clipboard a link to the current Obsidian note, so that when I navigate to another note or a create a new one, I can start by pasting a link to the note I will just have come from. Iām now trying to do that (on macOS) with a Keyboard Maestro macro to do the following, but Iām having trouble getting āGet File Attributeā to work. Hereās what Iām looking to do:
[[base filename]] in the clipboard (could also be done later, during the pasting)Any thoughts on how to get this to work? Perhaps a feature request for a plugin?
@AutonomyGaps In Obsidian, there is command/hotkey named āEdit file titleā that selects filename without ā.mdā extension which can be copied then. (Default value is āF2ā, I use āAlt+Dā).
There is also command/hotkey āCopy file pathā.
