Hi. We have come up with this setting by convention now: (Ubuntu 14.04, zim 0.60)
* Icons are available as a git managed, shared resource. * convention, setting in every notebook.zim: document_root=~/Notebooks/docroot * symlink: docroot ~/Noteboooks/docroot symlinks to git managed shared external tree. This way there are all freedoms needed (see below, example: Music). And, the intentionally selected and agreed entry point "docroot" will carefully not be filled up with any unrelated stuff. * icons reside in: ~/Noteboooks/docroot/icons # or, following the symlink: /some/external/real/tree/for/docroot/icons * files, examples: cd ~/Noteboooks/docroot tree . ├── icons │ ├── led-green.gif │ ├── led-red.gif │ ├── led-yellow.gif │ ├── tux.png │ └── Warning.1.svg └── Music -> /tmp/Music/ * example link to some icon: /icons/led-blue.gif {{/icons/led-blue.gif}} * There also is place for other shared material as templates, videos or. Think about link to music via blue led symbol: {{/icons/led-blue.gif?href=/Music/A_flow_of_Tranquil.flac&width=20}} * Such symbols may be copied and pasted within a zim book to different levels as needed. They never break because tey are absolute links related to a given document_root OUT_SIDE of the zim book itself. * That last note is important. There is no such thing as an absolute link within a zim book, they all are transformed into relative links auto-magically by zim. Thanks, zim is great!
