I have a large technical publication with item links that I am trying to update to a revised version. So far I can get the new document version through item linking but the text/annotation I want is being searched for. This is my syntax:
(x-devonthink-item://1E34C440-CA2C-485F-8998-F75A227F9E6D?search=Sabre&Flight)
I am searching for the phrase, “Sabre Flight Planning Manual”. The document does have an OCR layer; I can get to the page using the page parameter but I am trying to avoid that as page numbers do change sometimes.
Why are you using an ampersand? That denotes a new parameter.
Also, from the Automation > Item Links of the built-in Help and manual…
Because the voice in my head told me to.
Removing the ampersand doesn’t result in a successful search…
You can’t just remove it and expect it to work. See the example I marked in the documentation? The search string needs to be URL-encoded, so a space is %20
.
Ok.
(x-devonthink-item://1E34C440-CA2C-485F-8998-F75A227F9E6D?search=SABRE%FLIGHT%PLANNING%MANAGER)
Still just takes me to the first page in the document. This is what I am trying to search for:
Also as noted in my screen capture, it only jumps to the first occurrence.
Indeed that is true as well.
You guys got me straightened out. Thanks so much.
