I also need to figure out how to handle Drummer images in Obsidian.
I have gotten the basic daily outline working in Obsidian! 😃 Now I have to work on how to build a subroutine in Shortcuts to loop through looking for subs.

I also need to figure out how to handle Drummer images in Obsidian. And this is a nested test for my checkSubs function.
I’m starting to believe that I’m wasting my time getting outline mode working in Obsidian.
This line is a sub of the previous text but is showing up flat in Obsidian. Time to start digging!
And another sub with additinal text to make it wrap around. And another sub with additinal text to make it wrap around. And another sub with additinal text to make it wrap around.
Another sub test.
I think using E/D is the way forward for me to integrate all of my thinking with Obsidian and really whatever tools I can also figure out out to connect. I'd love to figure out how to connect my <a href="http://readwise.io">Readwise</a> highlights. I

Another sub test. And still another sub test. Another one bites the dust
Continuing work on my Drummer/Obsidian/Shortcuts integration focusing on the Mac today. I have come to realize that my shortcut I am using from the Services menu doesn’t honor multiple levels of my outline so when I send the data over to Obsidian it is flat which for archiving purposes is fine but it would be cool if I could recreate the outline in Obsidian.
For some reason my micro.blog site isn't updating as fast as it used to but I don't know if it is related to E/D or something else. The posts show up in the micro.blog dashboard but not on my actual site so it must be a micro.blog issue.

This is a different test for handling 1 nested level.

I am exploring using Electric Drummer for my work with integrating my outlines with my Obsidian enviornment. What’s very cool is using url schemes in Electric Drummer do not trigger any security dialogs like Safari and Chrome! This could lead to some very cool capabilities on the Mac! I have many “automation tools” I currently use on the Mac including Shortcuts, AppleScript, Python and Node-Red.
Now fighting an iPad version of the shortcut not working properly!
I like where this is heading integrating Drummer with Obsidian. I’ve got a shortcut that I call from the Services menu that takes the data for a particular day and creates a file in Obsidian with the same date in the microblog folder.

Testing the link mechanism in Drummer
Today I have been noodling more that coding! I am truly amazed that the Mac Shortcuts app is running so smoothly since I cleaned up it’s corrupted prefs and database! 😃
Finally feel like I have a great path forward!! And no more use of url schemes from within Safari! 😀
I’ve taken a new path for integrating Drummer content with Obsidian. Thanks to Federico Viticci of macstories.net and his Obsidian Clip for Mac shortcut I have a starting point for how I can accomplish my goal. I’ve modified his shortcut so it will work both on the Mac as a Service and on the iPad as a Share Sheet extension. Very exciting night! I will now be able to make different shortcuts that will integrate different outlines in Drummer with specific areas of my Obsidian vault!
