Neat. Hmmm. I guess if you know that you're always dragging/dropping from a
particular path then you could strip off one prefix and add another. That
allows you to create a relative path _canoncal_uri tiddler. Like this (for
just the macro part of your code) :
\define embedded-image-actions()
<$set name="tiddlercontent2" mode="inline" filter=
"[<actionTiddler>removeprefix[file:///C:/Users/Mark/Downloads/]]">
<$action-createtiddler $basetitle="New Image" _canonical_uri=<<
tiddlercontent2>> type="image/jpeg" $savetitle="Embed JPEG!!tiddlertitle"/>
<$action-navigate $to={{Embed JPEG!!tiddlertitle}}/>
</$set>
\end
This lets you drag and drop from a local directory (browsed in your
browser) into a local tw and instantly create a _canonical_uri tiddler. The
only thing that would be better is if you could drag from explorer or some
other file browser.
Thanks!
