Why is the dropdown only triggered after a space?

Closed this issue · 7 comments

For notes whose filenames have multiple words, then only after typing the space in between the words that the dropdown is triggered. I assume that it's for less clutter when you are typing. Is that correct? The issue is that if I want to create a new note, then it will make the filename with a space, e.g. multiple words .md. This creates a little annoying, since Obsidian reads [[multiple words ]] (with a space) the same with [[multiple words]] and links to multiple words.md, while the plugin will create multiple words .md.

I am not sure if I understand your problem. The only space that should be required is the one after the inline field name and double colon fieldName::⠀. I can change it so it is not required in the next release This behavior is already changed in release 0.1.1 so that the starting space is not required. If that is not what you meant, please provide a video or gif recording of what leads to the problem you are seeing.

No it's not. Here is the screen recorder. You can see that there are two new created files: newfile.md and newfile .md. They are not the same. I hope it's clearer

This is strange and should not happen. I can see the + Create New option the whole time. I tried to reproduce the issue on my end but I was not successfull. Could try to open your devtools console window and see if you can see any errors pop up when doing the same as on the recording above?

It turns out that it conflicts with the Various Complements plugin. I check the console and find nothing. Do you have a debug mode?

I installed the Various Complements plugin and tried to reproduce the issue, but I was still not successfull. The problem may depend on the plugins setting and/or Obsidian vault content. Maybe you could try disabling the "Complement automatically" setting of the Various Complements plugin, I have a hunch that that could help.

Yes that's the cause of the issue. Thanks. I guess you cannot have two suggesters at the same time

I am closing this as won't fix and I will add an information about the incompatibility to the README.
