tldr; I want to link text that exists to a file that exists without changing the text that is already there. (this corresponds to how links generally work: the text is not the same as the target )
What I’m trying to do
I’ve typed some text in a previously created document and want to link it to a file (with a different name that already exists)
Things I have tried
At present, I need to go through an awkward sequence
- select/cut the text (Command-X)
- invoke the link (Command-L / customShortCut)
- search for the link
- tab
- type |
- paste (Command-C)
- return + space
If you type | it works to link to the internal file but then when you select that file the original text is changed.
Suggest
Invoke link
Type ~ or something
Invokes search - select file and return
