Finding documents localy

In the schema I hit “E” on keyboard to edit the symbols values.
I put a path to a PDF in “Datasheet” like “./pdf/bq32002.pdf” where “./pdf/” is the relative path from the schema.
But when I then hid “D” to open the documentation file it is not found. Is there any other way to state where documentation is located if they are local?

I have made a “KICAD_DATASHEET_DIR” for location of local datasheets, and use that var in the links in my own libraries.

You can also use ${KIPRJMOD} as start of a pathname which gets replaced by the root of your current project.

Edit:
Changed to curly brackets. Oops.

The syntax is ${KIPRJMOD}

The curly brackets are needed.
