    i think i fixed it it was the same cli-version bug i keep getting but more persistent this time (i had to edit/restart vs more than once before it stopped replacing it)

    It took me an embarrassingly long time to "see" the new icon lurking there, in the middle of the ones that I was already expecting to see.😅 I didn't have to enable it, but I did have to reload the window a couple times. I'm on regular VS Code in Mac, if that ends up being relevant.

    @foureyedsoul thansk for the screenshot, for me it wasn’t there at all - the problem was that the cli-version bug both was present, but also i didn’t get an error message telling me it was happening any more

    so it prevented the view from loading at all wihtout any error message appearing anywhere (i checked all the logs)

    Anyone know of any way to have a keybinding in vscode that executes a terminal command and inserts the output at the current text cursor position?

    I haven't tried this myself, but I would imagine this could be done by creating a [task](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/tasks), and assigning a keybinding to run that task. The task would have to execute the terminal command and pipe it to your system's clipboard which you would have to paste to the cursor position.

    That could work. Thanks

    Got curious if this works. It does: tasks.json:
    Copy code
    {
      // See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
      // for the documentation about the tasks.json format
      "version": "2.0.0",
      "tasks": [
        {
          "label": "echo",
          "type": "shell",
          "command": "pwd | pbcopy",
          "problemMatcher": [],
          "presentation": {
            "echo": false,
            "reveal": "never",
            "focus": false,
            "panel": "shared",
            "showReuseMessage": false,
            "clear": true
          }
        },
        {
          "label": "insert",
          "command": "${command:editor.action.clipboardPasteAction}",
          "dependsOn": [
            "echo"
          ],
          "problemMatcher": [],
          "presentation": {
            "echo": false,
            "reveal": "never",
            "focus": false,
            "panel": "shared",
            "showReuseMessage": false,
            "clear": true
          }
        }
      ]
    }
    keybindings.json:
    Copy code
    // Place your key bindings in this file to override the defaults
    [
        {
            "key": "cmd+q 0", // your choice of binding
            "command": "workbench.action.tasks.runTask",
            "args": "insert"
        }
    ]
    nice 😄 I'll be using this a lot in the future I think

    anyone with macos use image paste regularly? I figured out that if i do a screenshot to clipboard everything works but if i copy an image file it does not work - is there a way to copy an image file and image paste or is screenshot to clipboard the only way to go?

    its an interesting thing though i see what Kevin is saying - but what i am not sure about then is like the following workflow 1. create a diagram in draw.io 2. export diagram as png
  • a

    alexis<3

    05/04/2022, 6:42 AM
    i guess i could open the png in the browser and copy the image that way - its probably less friction than manually adding the asset and linking to it

    I created a new vault and want to copy the top-level notes from another vault into the new one. I want a duplicate, not a link. I presume that it is not the right way to copy with the filesystem because the ids would be non-unique. What is the best way to do this ? Thanks a lot !

    You could copy the files, then use the "Dendron: Doctor" command, and pick "regenerateNoteId". This will change all the note IDs so they'll be unique again.

    I like the new Dendron View ! But I would like to amend it with the 'outline' view of the vscode explorer view. Is this possible ? I presume that this is more a vscode than a dendron question but maybe someone has an idea ?

    Focus into the secondary side bar (the one that's on the right side of VSCode), drag either the entire Dendron View or the outline view there. now you'll have both the Dendron view and the outline view displayed. Drag the outline view into the dendron view container.

    In my installation the new Release of Dendron seems to break the Outline view . All my notes show 'No symbols found in document' . But when I open the same file with vscode without dendron, the outline is shown. Should I file an issue ?
