Details

Dendron: Go to is a command that lets you navigate to a link under your cursor. This command works on all link types and have different behavior depending on the type of link.

Links with relative paths will be opened relative to the vault that the note is located.

When this command is used on a link to an external file or web address, the link will be opened by the system's default application.

When this command is used on a link to a note, the behavior is identical to Dendron: Go to Note

When this command is used on a link to a proxy note, instead of opening the note in VSCode, the link that is specified in the frontmatter property uri will be opened with the system's default application.

Go to Note

  • shortcuts:
    • key: ctrl+enter
    • when: editorFocus

Go to the note in the wikilinks or the File Links under the cursor, creating them if they doesn't exist.

Go Next Sibling

Summary

Go to the next sibling in the hierarchy

Keybindings

  • shortcuts:

Siblings with numeric names will be sorted numerically, whereas siblings with alphabetical names will be sorted alphabetically when determining the next sibling.

When the active note is a Daily Journal Note, this command will traverse month boundaries (eg. daily.journal.2022.01.31 -> daily.journal.2022.02.01)

  • NOTE: this currently only works when journal.dateFormat is left as the default (y.MM.dd)
