Hi, I am running Joplin 1.3.15 in windows 10. All the links work well when clicked in the WYSIWYG editor. However I wonder if there is a way to activate the links in the markdown editor? In Obsidian this is possible by holding the command key and clicking. So I wondered if I had missed such a combination in Joplin. Thanks for any guidance.
