WikiLinks to files in another folder do not work.
Completed
MacOS: 13.0.1
nvUltra: Version 1.0.0 (2022.11.02.23.49)
I have two folders for which I am using nvUltra. I open both of them in separate nvUltra windows.
If I drag an entry in the notes list from one window to the other it creates a WikiLink such as:
[[../other-folder/mynote.md]]
However when I click on the link in either the editor or the preview it does open the link.
I can understand not supporting links that are not in or below the folder opened in the nvUltra window, but if that is the case, it should not allow creating these links.

1. Correct -- nvUltra opens a folder, and can access anything inside that folder. It cannot access anything outside of that folder. There are no plans to attempt to change this.
2. Because Markdown/MultiMarkdown documents are plain text, there are no restrictions on what you can enter into them (e.g. linking to an inaccessible file). Restricting the user from doing this would just add frustration. And since they could just type the path directly (or copy/paste), it would not prevent them from doing something "wrong."
3. Since the underlying files are plain text, they can be opened in any other app, including Marked and MultiMarkdown Composer, which *do* work with more arbitrary relative paths. So there are legitimate use cases where you may be editing a file in nvUltra, but expecting to process it elsewhere that can make use of the file in question.
