Subject: Adding Hyperlinks to Notes
I have been trying to insert a URL Hyperlink into a Note.
When in "Edit Mode" on a Note a Menu Item named "Add Hypberlink"
becomes available under the Edit Menu.
When I choose this item a dialogue box pops up asking you to insert an
Internet URL. I enter a valid URL and close the dialogue box by saying
OK.
Nothing appears in my note, no hyperlink is inserted.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Note:
I am still using a "Demo" copy of the software but I would not think
this should make a difference.
I am using a 24" 2.8 Ghz iMac with 2 GB of Memory.

PS
I have also been trying to explore another item posted on the Web that
says you can make references to files by prefixing the file path with
“file://”.
See this URL:  http://www.atpm.com/12.06/yojimbo.shtml

Thanks
David

Unless you have some text selected before invoking this command, the
hyperlink won't be anchored to anything and thus won't be visible.

Try this:

Type in "Apple", then select it, choose "Add Hyperlink", type
"http://www.apple.com" in the link dialog, and click OK. The word "Apple"
should now have an active link to that location.

You can indeed do so, and here's a (hopefully :-) useful tip:

  Just drop a file or folder into the "Add Hyperlink" dialog
  and Yojimbo will insert the file URL for that item.

Thanks,

1. Can I add Hyperlinks from within the Comments section of a
Bookmark ?

2. Can I add a link to another Yojimbo item from within a Note (or
from within the Comments section of a bookmark) ?

Regards

Steve

Select the target item in Yojimbo then select Edit | Copy Item Link.
You can then paste the link into a new Note (or presumably the
comments section, though I haven't tried).

Cheers,

Though comments don't support rich text, you can add URLs to them,
including links to other Yojimbo items.

To resolve a URL in a comment, just right-click or Control-click on it and
choose "Open URL" from the contextual menu.

>2. Can I add a link to another Yojimbo item from within a Note (or
>from within the Comments section of a bookmark) ?

Yes; just select the target item and choose Edit -> Copy Item Link to get a
link which you can paste into a note or comment.

In a note, you'll get a rich text link with the target item's name; in a
comment (see above), you'll get the target item's URL.

(This is one of those things that's more awkward to describe than to do. :-)
