Relative URL when Graph file is in a shared directory ?

+1 vote

Hello,

I try to use relative URL, (yEd ver : 3.16.2.1)

I had made some tests :

I have a graphml file and MyTextFile.txt in the same folder on local machine and in a remote shared folder

If the graphml and text files are in a local folder

URL= MyTextFile.txt -> OK (Relative URL without protocol)

URL= file://MyTextFile.txt -> NOT OK (Relative URL with protocol)

URL= file://./MyTextFile.txt -> NOT OK (Relative URL with protocol and ./ or .\)

URL= \\RemoteComputer\SharedFolder\MyTextFile.txt -> NOT OK (Absolute URL without protocol)

URL= file://\\RemoteComputer\SharedFolder\MyTextFile.txt -> OK (Absolute URL with protocol)

If the graphml and text files are in a shared folder

URL= MyTextFile.txt -> NOT OK (Relative URL)

URL= file://MyTextFile.txt -> NOT OK (Relative URL with protocol)

URL= file://./MyTextFile.txt -> NOT OK (Relative URL with protocol and ./ or .\)

URL= file://\\RemoteComputer\SharedFolder\MyTextFile.txt -> OK (Absolute URL with protocol)

So after all this tests done, my question is how can I write a relative URL from a graphml file saved in a shared folder ?

May be in the next release it will be fine if the URL can manage ./ as current directory and ../ as parent directory.

Thanks a lot for your software very usefull and easy to use.
