you can do that. dendron uses the first folder found in your

folders

setting to index files

the one limitation is that its looking for a

dendron.code-workspace

file when setting up a workspace. have an issue to make this configurable

So if I'm in a Python repo I just need to set the path to the folder for

~/Dendron

?

yeah - so add the folder to dendron, and add this to the settings

"dendron.rootDir": "."

see this as an example workspace: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron-template/blob/master/dendron.code-workspace

you'll also need to change your workspace name to dendron.code-workspace

at that point, you can run

Dendron: Change Workspace

to use your new workspace

as far as your earlier message about windows - its a path separator issue. working on that now and should be ready before end of the day

Cool 👍

@User heads up that windows support just landed in the latest version of dendron! https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/38#issuecomment-661508563

Nice. I’ll try it out tomorrow

Hi! I've bounced between Roam and Obsidian and now giving Dendron a try. I got the windows edition working and I'm curious about Markdown preview image support.

For example, I have my markdown notes formatted like this, but the image preview doesn't work. This works in Zettlr and Obsidian. Do you support image linking? Also, I use a lot of #tags, but I see there is no tag autocomplete. Is there a way to enable this? Apologies, I am not super familiar with VSCode, thank you!

@User yep, we support image linking. whats confusing is that vscode has its own markdown preview which contributes a button. you want to click on the other identical preview button to get the dendron version 😅

(if you hover, it will say markdown preview enhanced)

thanks for the very quick reply @User! I am seeing the same behavior when I click that button, although I do get a white background and different formatting

that being said, either preview you use should support image linking. can you try using posix style paths? (so a '/' instead of a '\') and making sure the file exists?

I will give that a shot

as for tag autocomplete - we don't support that yet. we do support auto complete on wiki-links

feel free to open an issue for tagging if that's important for your use case https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues

Thanks! I've tried tweaking the image path a few different ways and unfortunately no dice. I also see in the markdown preview that a #tag is formatted like a header.

In Zettlr the same file renders like this:

But I will continue trying Dendron because I like the ease of search and the input experience. Thank you for making it. 🙂

glad to hear it and thanks for using it, especially for the preview

for the tags, we're still experimenting with different ways of presenting it. currently, the best way to add it is as a bullet under the title

eg:

# Street Fighter
- tags: #foo #bar #foobar

as for images, the easiest way of getting images in dendron is using the

> Paste Image

command

if you copy an image to your clipboard, you can paste it in

Great, I'll try that.
