2.4.0

Notes Explorer v2.0.0

Big New Features 🎁

• Page View Mode

  • If you are not scrolling through many cards, you can use the plugin as usual. You will also see an indicator in the status bar to show how many cards you’ve scrolled. If scrolling through more than a thousand cards doesn’t cause Obsidian to freeze, and resizing the view still rearranges the cards properly, it means you have a powerful PC and may not need to enable this feature. (Still, take a note of the number, when you start feeling that, you shouldn't scroll beyond these many cards.)
  • To enable the new Page View Mode, toggle the feature in the settings. You can also set how many cards you want to see on a single page (default is 100). This is entirely up to you. On my laptop, I noticed lag when I set it to '1000,' so I usually keep it below that. (Choose a number below the limit you noted earlier.)

• Page Bar: A new page bar has been added, which you can open by clicking on the Page: # button in the status bar. You can also use the left and right arrow buttons on either side of the page number to navigate between pages without opening the page bar.

• Hide Action Bar: A new button in the board header has been added. If you’d like to hide the action bar and get a full-screen, distraction-free view, you can use this button.

• Save button removed from color picker, so users can directly select the color and close the picker by clicking outside the picker pop-up.

• The tags in action bar has been made to scroll horizontally, to solve the various issue occurring earlier while accusing the tags.

• Delete permanently option removed for deleted files setting, since it was similar to Move to system trash option.

Bug Fixes 🛠

• Footer background is only appearing on hover, when footer always visible setting is true. Fixed ✅
• Tag color indicator are not applied as per priority set in settings, when front matter has been selected as the tags location. Fixed ✅
• Filename in top-bar is not wrapping and flowing out of the card. Fixed ✅

Other Changes 🔎

2.0.0

Notes Explorer v2.0.0 🥳

Initially started as simple fork from the Cards View plugin, now has become a highly functional plugin in itself with a lot of new functionalities. I started integrating all these new features to explore vault efficiently. Although, now after hearing few suggestions from the users, I have decided to publish my own new plugin with all these new changes, as I presume, the author of the Cards View might not be interested in integrating all these new features. This Beta version will be now published with a new name : Notes Explorer.

What's changed ?

The old beta version will now be released on the Obsidian plugin marketplace with a new name : Notes Explorer.

Full Changelog: 1.14.0...2.0.0

1.14.0

Cards View (Beta) v1.14.0 🥳

New Big Features 🎁

• UI/UX for the Tag color indicator has been enhanced to give best experience for configuring the colors.
  

• New setting option to select the Tag color indicator type

• The functionality for the new Tag color indicator type = Card's sidebar has been implemented, as can be seen in the first image. This specific feature has been integrated because, the rendered cards are not simple cards like Google Notes or other simple cards. In Obsidian, the markdown is rendered using various styles for all the different types of elements, such as headings, blockquotes, codeblocks, etc. And their colors varies with different themes too. To be able to view the content in the cards properly, users can use this new option to see the tag color indicator in a new way.

Bug Fixes 🛠
