Issue with Hookmark linking specific items in Capacities.io on macOS

Bug Reports

I hope you are doing well.
I would like to report an issue I’m experiencing when using Hookmark with Capacities.io on macOS.

When I select a specific object/item in Capacities (for example a note or object instance) and invoke Hookmark to create or copy a link:

  1. The generated link has the format capacities://…, but
  2. The link title in Hookmark does not include the name of the selected item, and
  3. When I click the saved Hookmark link, Capacities opens only the object type page, not the specific item that was originally selected.

This makes it difficult to reliably use Hookmark for precise, item-level linking within Capacities, which would otherwise be a very powerful workflow.Please let me know if:
• This is a known limitation or bug,
• There is a recommended workaround,

Thank you very much for your time and for the excellent work on Hookmark.

Thank you for reporting this issue, @Atom . And sorry for late response.

Do you mean you can’t get a link to a block in a page?

Could you please let us know your Hookmark version and script version? You can find it in Hookmark about window.

Thank you

First of all, there is no need to apologize — on the contrary, thank you very much for getting back to me so quickly, especially during the holiday period. I really appreciate it.
I can obtain a link to the selected item in Capacities, but the issue is how the link is captured and resolved.

What happens is the following:
• Hookmark successfully captures a link, but it appears simply as capacities://… instead of showing the name of the selected item.

• While this is what I would expect to see based on Capacities’ documentation, where the item name is preserved:

Additionally, when I open the link generated by Hookmark, Capacities does not open the specific selected item. Instead, it opens the page corresponding to the object type (e.g. Meeting, People, Location, Weblink) that contains the item, rather than the item itself.

So the link seems to point to the object type view instead of acting as a deep link to the selected object instance.

Regarding versions:
• Hookmark version: 6.12 (6436)
• Hookmark script version: v. 399

Please let me know if you need any additional information or further screenshots.
Thanks again for your support and for the great work on Hookmark.

Thank you for your detailed information, @Atom .

Just want to make sure, Hookmark does not show correct title for page object, but for blocks in the page it can show the title. Is this correct?

I just tried it. And it seems if the page object is already opened, then the deeplink will not highlight the block. But if Capacities is in Pages view, then it will open the page and highlight the block.

Yes, that is exactly correct.

We have updated our script server with the fix for the page title issue, script version 402. Could you please update your Hookmark script and see if the issue is fixed? (Hookmark preference window->Update->Check now)

Also please note that it is UI scripting so sometimes you might need try multiple times.

We will contact Capacities regarding the deeplink issue.

I’ve just updated the Hookmark script to version 402 and can confirm that the page title issue is now fully resolved. It’s working perfectly on my side.

Thank you very much for the quick fix and for your excellent support.
