Shortcut for inserting date and time into a cell

[bbqian11]

Problem

In most excel-like programs, we have shortcuts to add the current date and time. Currently the templates do not work in datalooms - which makes it hard to insert the date, time and datetime combo.

Solution

any one of the below solutions should suffice

• column type of 'date' could have a feature to insert current date and/or time
• column type of 'date' could have a feature to auto populate current date and/or time when row is created
• Command to quickly insert date, time or datetime combo.
• Parse obsidian templates in the cell
• shortcut key insert date and time.
