    Are the links to files in the preview supposed to display like this?

    you're looking at the normal preview - for dendron, you'll want our custom markdown preview

    it should be one of the recommended extensions when you first initialize your workspace

    The two icons (markdown enhanced preview and normal preview) look very similar but if you hover on top of them I think you may differentiate them by the popup message

    I look at @User animations and I wonder what application he's using! VS Code manages to look substantially different

    Hi, it's my first time usind vscode. Is it fine making a new workspace folder for Dendron 0.4 inside the old workspace folder for Dendron 0.3?

    - if you run
    Initialize Workspace
    again with the same folder and select
    continue
    when it warns you about the workspace replacing, Dendron will keep your current files and copy over the new files. it will overwrite your
    dendron.code-workspace
    file though so as long as you didn't make changes there, it will be fine - that being said, dendron automatically upgrades your settings as you upgrade so you might not need to run
    Initialize
    . the main benefit is being able to access the revamped getting started which will be copied over to your vault - note that if you do decide to copy over the new files, we changed the namign convention. previously, dendron files were stored as
    pro.dendron.*
    . for
    0.4
    , they are now
    dendron.*
    - because we don't delete files during upgrade, you will have both sets of files. you can delete the
    pro.dendron.*
    files manually if you no longer need them - this process will be simplified in the future.
    0.4 to 0.5
    will ideally just be a confirmation prompt πŸ˜…

    exactly my point of view too: separation of concerns and choice to the users

    @User "copied over" simplifies everything. Thank you.

    @User But I have a mess now because I did upgrade in the new 0.4 workspace inside the old 0.3 one. I should have asked before doing πŸ˜„

    you can delete the old files by going into your vault and running
    rm pro.dendron*

    - run
    Dendron: Reload Index
    to reindex your workspace afterwards

    Do the backlinks not work if you do give the link text? eg.
    [[example | pro.dendron.quickstart]]
    ?
