Copy thee file path of one note in the note list via context menu, then paste in editor and you will see.

Brilliant, yes that works !

Update to an earlier sentence here that I deleted and replace with this:
I found that links to files outside the VNote may or may not work. 2 examples:

  • men​ - this works, it renders the image perfectly.
  • events feb 19 - this does not work, the space remains empty.

After posting this, I notice that the word men in the 1st example is turned into a"link, whereas events feb 19 is not turned into a link. So there must be something wrong in the syntax I am using in the 2nd example. Please explain this difference.

Spaces in URL should be escaped to 20%. Just copy your image file and paste in the editor. Manual maintenance is not needed.

Copy/paste is OK for a one-off image because it does not change anymore. But I also have an image that is a screenshot of an Excel sheet, and that image gets updated as the Excel sheet changes.
In that case I need a link in my note so it updates dynamically. When you say
"Spaces in URL should be escaped to 20%, what do you mean exactly? Can you take the 2nd link I provided above as an example and show what it should look like?

BTW, I want to congratulate you on a very interesting note management app. People tend to confuse note-taking and note management. VNote is note-taking AND note management, and has a lot of features. I just discovered it 2 days ago.

Hi,

The second example should be *![events feb 19](/home/peter/Documents/2019%20events/events20%feb%202019.png).

Thank you!

Thank you Le Tan, that works. Basically any gaps in the link should filled with %20. BTW, not 20% ;-)

Is there a possibility to link to a specific header or paragraph in a note? Sometimes it is called an anchor.

This is certainly a Markdown feature but does not seem to be supported by VNote.
Am I right? If so, will VNote eventually be amended to support this?
