Painter plugin breaks Obsidian hotkeys functionality #11

Closed dalesimpson closed 3 months ago

dalesimpson commented 3 months ago

Summary

After installing Painter v1.1.0 the hotkeys (e.g., CMD+k, CMD+i, CMD+b, CMD+n, etc.) stopped working. There were no error messages on the screen or in the console.

Obsidian version v1.6.5.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Painter
  2. Create a new note.
  3. Add some text to the new note.
  4. Highlight the text with Painter using the right-click menu.
  5. Try to use a hotkey (e.g., CMD+k or CMD+n), and nothing will happen.

Workaround Steps

  1. Disable Painter
  2. Quit Obsidian (this is needed so the disabled state of the Painter plugin is persisted for a later startup)
  3. Restart Obsidian
  4. Disable all community plugins (Obsidian will restart on its own when you do this). At this point, after the restart, hotkey functionality will have been restored.
  5. Enable all community plugins (Obsidian will restart again; the disabled state of the Painter plugin will be "remembered" from step 2)

At this point, the hotkeys will work again.

Troubleshooting notes

I disabled every Community Plugin and one-by-one turned them back on and the problem returned as soon as I enabled Painter. This is limit of the means I have available to troubleshoot this issue, otherwise, I would have gone further.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Fwiw, I was excited to use Painter and for the few hours I used it before discovering hotkey problem, I really enjoyed it.

Thank you for responding so quickly. My apologies for the duplicate report. I'm afraid I didn't recognize the overlap when I looked at #4

Thanks again for your help. I'm looking forward to using Painter again!
