Incompatibility with 'Scroll Offset' plugin #71

Open Drachonia opened 1 year ago

Drachonia commented 1 year ago

Influx works great for me, except for some bugs already mentioned by others. One thing I noticed though is that the 'Scroll Offset' plugin stops working when Influx is being enabled. So there seems to be some incompatibility. That raises the question of course which plugin causes this, but 'Scroll Offset' doesn't seem to interfere with the any of the features of Influx. It would be great if you could look into this.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Have the 'Scroll Offset' plugin installed and enabled. - It works as intended.
  2. Have the 'Influx' plugin installed and enable it. - The text no longer sticks to the percentage set in 'Scroll Offset' but instead sticks to the bottom of the note.

Expected behavior Having 'Influx' and 'Scroll Offset' both installed and enabled, I expect Influx to hide while typing in a note (which works) and having the height of the cursor while typing not at the bottom of the screen but rather on the offset percentage set in the 'Scroll Offset' settings, say 25% from the bottom of the screen. This should only apply when the specific note is long enough to fall of the screen. After typing has stopped, Influx should appear again, at the end of the note, but visible on the screen. (At the moment Influx shows itself off-screen since the cursor and last typed word is at the end of the screen).

Hi,

I just thought I should mention that this bug also happens for both the Typewriter Mode and Typewriter Scroll plugin (both scroll offset plugins):

https://github.com/davisriedel/obsidian-typewriter-mode https://github.com/deathau/cm-typewriter-scroll-obsidian

I would love it if this could be fixed because I love Influx, but I can't use it because it interferes with my scroll offset plugins.

Hello, as mentioned in README, the creator abandoned the plugin. You might want to check out an alternative (not in community plugins list yet, available via BRAT): https://github.com/ivan-lednev/better-search-views
