Hi Nondys,
I’m the author of the first link you mentioned.
I totally agree that this is more difficult than it should be. I searched for a bunch of different options and the only viable one I came up with is the method I wrote about.
I’m curious if you have since found any better solution or what you ultimately decided upon.
I’ve also since added more steps to be a more complete walkthrough; though it is still quite complicated. I’ll try and see if I can think of a simpler solution.
