Make URL linkable when opening from Google Drive #1382

Open fulldecent opened 6 years ago

fulldecent commented 6 years ago

When opening a file from Google Drive there is a canonical location to store the file. Namely in Google Drive. There is no reliance on local storage in this situation.

When opening a file from Google Drive, a URL the at the top of the screen should be reusable and shareable so that I may later open the same URL to access the same file and I may send the URL to somebody else that has access to the file in Google Drive so that they may open the file in StackEdit.

Implementing this feature will achieve feature parity with Google Docs.

If two or more files are opened in different tabs, after browser restart, they all become the last opened file. Adding file id to url should also fix this problem.

+1, not having this is actually surprising (and not the good kind of surprise). I have a habit of managing all sorts of ongoing work with browser bookmarks, and with Google Docs that works flawlessly - but if I open from Drive with StackEdit, that workflow no longer works, and I have to awkwardly bookmark the document in Drive itself and then manually click "edit with StackEdit". It can be worked arond, but it's not great.
