Method

docLink.pathHead

The configured folder relative document links start from.

Reads the folder that relative document links start from, as a file:// URI, or null when none is set. A document link on a transaction or business document that is a relative path is opened from this folder. It is kept in red-ale's Configuration, not in the book, so the call works with no book open.

Examples
