We've been told that the full path is unavailable, and that's why it can't make an external link on the fly.
It seems to me that TW must have available the plain file name. So if you could provide the path to the file via a configuration tiddler, then a complete uri could be formed. Maybe could overwrite the existing "import" button (the one you see after the drag-n-drop) so that it creates a canonical uri tiddler rather than actually importing the source. -- Mark On Tuesday, May 15, 2018 at 4:32:08 PM UTC-7, Zachary Storer wrote: > > Hello, > > I wish that there was a more intelligent [import] button that could link > to external images without the need > for manually inserting the _canonical_uri field.
