Drafts Directory: Footnote

Action

Posted by Colin Walker, Last update over 6 years ago

Prompts for the footnote text and adds both the inline element ( [^1] ) and footnote at end of draft ( [^1]: )

Returns you to where you left off to continue typing.

Steps

script

var p = Prompt.create();
p.isCancellable = "true";
p.title = "Enter the footnote text";
p.addTextView("footnote","","", {
	"height": 100.0
});
p.addButton("Add");

if (p.show()) {

  var content = editor.getText();
  var count = (content.match(/\[\^/g) || []).length;
  var fn = (count/2) + 1;

  var selRange = editor.getSelectedRange();
  
  editor.focus();
  var inline = "[^"+fn+"]";
  if (fn == 1) {
    var footnote = "\n\n\n[^"+fn+"]: "+p.fieldValues["footnote"];
  } else {
    var footnote = "\n[^"+fn+"]: "+p.fieldValues["footnote"];
  }

  if (p.buttonPressed == "Add") {
    editor.setSelectedText(inline);

    content = editor.getText() + footnote;
    editor.setText(content);
    editor.setSelectedRange(selRange[0]+inline.length,0);

  }

}
