Linking to Devonthink 2

[russdquinn]

Jon,

I am very excited about the tighter integration possibilities with Devonthink 2.

I can pull a link from Bookends into a document in Devonthink but I can't figure out how to link to a Devonthink document in Bookends like you describe in the new features for 10.4.3.

I am using version 2.0pb1 of Devonthink.

Would you mind walking us through linking a Bookends reference to a Devonthink note?

Thanks,
Russ

Hi,

I'm no DT Pro expert, but there is a menu item Edit -> Copy Item Link. If you paste that into a Bookends field (on it's own line) and right-click on that field, the link will appear and you can select it to return to DT Pro and open that item. It certainly works for me.

If you have problems with this, please contact tech support with further information.

Worked perfectly for me also.

Thanks, that is really great to have two way linking between Bookends and Devonthink.

Do think there might be a possibility for that link to be incorporated into the Attachment Inspector in some way so it could be accessed like a file with the paper clip in the main list?

I hadn't thought of that (I'll give it some thought now). But it can be accessed with a single click in the Concise View pane in the List View, which I think is more useful.
