Link Abbreviations with Org-Attach

Link Abbreviations with Org-Attach

Hello,

Is it possible to use org-attachments with link abbreviation definitions?

I'm testing it, and it seems not to work. I'm referring to elements like these:

* 1 Link Abbreviation Definition
#+LINK: shortcut /path/to/folder/

* 2 Attachment Directory Property doesn't work
:PROPERTIES:
:DIR: shortcut:file.el
:END:

Best regards

:DIR: value must be a directory path, not an Org link.
So, what you are asking for is not supported.

Hi Ihor,

I've moved on, and I probably won't need that feature.

I placed a file in :DIR: by mistake. The same question applied to a directory in :DIR: was the correct.
