Can one make a link / a connection to a folder / file (in the binder) from the folder / file of one project to another?
And in the same project a link / bookmark / connection in a file or folder to a part of a text in a folder / file?
Yes to both counts! You can find the details on how to do so in §10.1.6, External Links, in the user manual.
Easy mode answer though: just drag the item from one project into the text editor of another project window, or into its Bookmark lists in the inspector.
The technology it uses is universal by the way, these links can even be stored in other programs and documents that support links.
Many thanks!
But sorry, I cannot get it working at all.
Nothing seems to happen then. No link.
When I do this, the item is copied to the other project (instead of being linked): just drag the item from one project into the binder of another project.
And this does not work either: And in the same project a link / bookmark / connection in a file or folder to a part of a text in a folder / file?
Update: actually there may be a bug here. Dragging into the text editor should work, and was working at some point, but now it is not. For now you would need to copy the URL as described in the manual, method (2), and create a regular hyperlink with that URL.
There was a typo that may have made it confusing. You have to drop it into the place where you want the link: in the text editor or bookmarks list. If you drag it into the binder, corkboard or outliner it will copy the whole item, as you say.
And this does not work either: And in the same project a link / bookmark / connection in a file or folder to a part of a text in a folder / file?
Could you give an example of what you are trying to do? Within the same project if I drag an item from the binder into a text editor or bookmark list it creates an internal link to that item.
With this option?
Is there a shortcut?

OK, but at the moment it does not work because of that bug, if I understood correctly.

Yes, here the same. Sorry, I meant:

So I want a phrase, a text to be linked, e.g. only the x-text:
So the same text would be shown in another item or / and a link to that paragraph / text phrase would be set.
There doesn’t appear to be a way to customise the shortcut at the moment, so just Alt,e,y,l.
As for the second query, here is a howto on linking to specific pieces of text.
