When using the "Custom File Organization" option in the settings, Obsidian Ink can silently fail if the user inputs an invalid directory. In my case, I tried using .ink/drawing and .ink/writing because I wanted to "hide" the folders, not knowing that creating a directory with a dot prefix (.blah) is not allowed in Obsidian.
To Reproduce
Go to "Custom File Organization" in the plugin settings.
Edit the default Ink/... path to .ink/....
Go into any note and create a handwriting section.
The section is not created, and there is no feedback to the user; it silently fails.
Expected behavior
We should validate the user input and notify them if the path is not allowed by Obsidian.
Desktop (please complete the following information):
Device & OS: iPad OS
Plugin version: Latest
Obsidian version: Latest
Additional context
This is a weird edge case, but a bug nonetheless. Also thanks for this awesome plugin! This gives me greater confidence that I can move everything to Obsidian, both for typed and handwritten notes.
