Ok, this may be a stupid question, but I just upgraded to VoodooPad 2.5 and one of the new features is supposed to be inter-document links. However it doesn't seem to automatically create them, and I can't find any way to create them manually.

Does anyone else use VoodooPad and know how to do this?

Thanks.

I had to ask Gus over at the support forums...

what you can do is drag the little icon thingie from one page into another - creating a link. the page to be dragged has to be saved first.

works pretty well in my experience

right, I'll get a piccie up in a bit when I'm less lazy.

Steps:

1. Write page.
2. Save page (otherwise it won't work)
3. Click on little voodooman (it will so it's selected as usual) and drag.

Seriously, it does work - if I can work out how to record a movie I will!

You need to get something like SnapzPro X to record what you're doing on your screen. That "icon thingie" is called a proxy icon. When the document is unsaved, it's slightly grayed out and you can't use it to drag to other windows. When you save it, just click and hold for a bit then try dragging. It's very handy once you get used to it (for instance, you can grab it, expose to another window and drop it)

Thanks!
