NotePlan 3.20 (1474)
Note Helpers v1.3.0

When I run most of the options availble from the plugin (e.g. /list inconsistent note filename), I get the select folder pop-up/dialogue. However once I select from that windows it closes and nothing happens.

Steps:

  • type the following in a note "/list con"
  • Select folder popup appears
  • Choose the folder (using up/down)
  • Press enter to select or click with mouse
Executing function 'listInconsistentNames'

What is the correct way to select an option from that dialogue?
