Open rchaklashiya opened 3 months ago
Thank you for the feedback, it's exactly what I was looking for :pray:
I can eventually bring back the old mechanism as a setting, however, since it's an undocumented Obsidian API that often breaks (then I need to ping the devs and they sometimes have other priorities), I rather try to get the new way right.
No problem!
If I were to open it up in hover editor in reading view then it would show up how map view used to show it, which is what I'm looking for, see here:
I'm realizing this specific one isn't the best example because here the image is in the first property, so some of it does actually show up in the first view I just shared, but it would not be the case always, see this for an example:
current view:
desired view:
If I understand your screenshots correctly, the preview renders your note differently than the "real" Reading View or the Obsidian popup, but not in source mode, which would not show images at all. Like you mentioned, maybe it's more similar to Live Preview. This is what the Obsidian Markdown rendering API provides, and while it had gotten better compared to a few months ago, it doesn't provide to plugins the fully-featured Reading View renderer :(
So:
Thanks for looking into this!
First I want to say thank you for the frequent updates on this plugin! I really like almost all the new changes post-5.0.0. However, one thing that I feel strongly about is the note popup mechanism on the map upon hovering over a marker. I also noticed that in the changelog it was stated that if anyone feels strongly about it to make it an issue on Github, so I'm doing that now.
I find that because I often add lots of properties to my notes, that the new way of doing the marker note popup mechanism makes it difficult to see a good snapshot of what is happening in the note. The previous popup mechanism was perfect in that it could be made to be live preview or reading mode, so that I could instantly see the top of the note minus the properties. Usually in my use case, the first thing in my notes on the map is an image, which makes them easy to recognize/distinguish--however, the new popup mechanism would not allow that to show up, because it cannot scroll, and it shows things in raw form (with properties showing up).
I understand the need for less complexity long-term, and am wondering if a simple fix could be to simply enable changing how the note shows up from raw mode to reading mode or live preview mode. For my own use case, that might be enough. Adding the ability to scroll would be ideal but I understand if that would be too much.
In any case, thanks for all that you do, and for working on this!
