Opening documents from the command line - partial string matching doesn't seem to work

Graham Criddle

If I try and open a Logos resource from the command line, partial string matching seems to work as shown below:

I can open a document I have created if I enter a subset of the start of the document name

but if I try and enter a part of the name (as works for resources) I don't get a match

This isn't just the case for notes but seems to be for documents in general.

Should similar matching rules work for documents as they do for resources?

Thanks, Graham

Hi Graham,

From your screenshots I thought this was about short names, but testing this showed me our resource matching in the command box is a lot more robust than I had thought! I'm not sure if there's anything "special" about resources that allows us that flexibility, but I'll make a case to see if we can extend that to documents. [:)]
