Steps to reproduce
- Set “New link format” in File preferences to “Relative path to file.”
- Create a new link with a relative format (this has to be done manually, as the file doesn’t exist yet so Obsidian can’t guess your desired folder path. E.g.,
../Calendar/20200803
- Try to create a new note from the link
- Cry
Expected result
Successful creation of the new file in the expected directory.
Actual result
An ENOENT error.
Environment
- Operating system: macOS 10.15
- Obsidian version: 0.8.1
Additional information
Oddly, new note creation in the desired folder works perfectly with Absolute paths (e.g., Calendar/20200803
instead of ../Calendar/20200803
.
