Amazingly done! This is the best quick tutorial on Obsidian so far! No BS, just short & useful information. Keep it going!

Very useful, thanks. Been using Obsidian for almost a year now, and still I keep discovering new improvements and enhancements and such.

I have noticed that when you select more than 1 line with ALT key (cause you want to highlight 2 sentences but they are separated) it will highlight them both but will copy text from the sentence that you first selected and replace text in second sentence.

I've been looking at this plugin with Metadata Menu. It would be great if Supercharged links had an API which other plugins could use to get a callback to allow for metadata updates, calling templates, etc, to enable automation and workflow beyond even super tags.

Hey Danny, This looks like exactly what I need. Being new to obsidian i’ve been hesitant to use community pluggins, as some of the comments are that using community pluggins could present a problem down the road if the developer stops updating with the app. I mostly use mobile, but have keyboard and mouse and really liked the ease of Highlighter, right click and so fast- 1. Do you think its safe. and if any thoughts, about which one. Im only a few minutes into video but already think ‘HIGHLIGHTER’ would be good for me

working with Highlightr this morning. At first I thought one ipad was working differently than the other. The code that pops up surrounding your text. when highlighting. If the text has been there for a few seconds rather than immediate, I can get it to highlight without having to see the code. if i try to highlight immediately, it looks messy until you enter, or tab out of

I'm gonna have to start using Highlightr, especially for highlighting the parts of my notes I'm gonna use for my uni assignments. Not sure about the other plugin though!

[Frisson]

looks likeI was wrong, has something to do with source mode, if you have it disabled or enabled, one of them makes the highlighting quick and esy

Why so many dislikes? Absolutely fantastic content, thanks.

Cool
But I got used to using Cybertron (Legacy) at this point, I think I'll just stick to it.
This is just so much setup and work required. For a purely aesthetic reasons
"Maybe" I'll play with Highlightr

You have "a watchable style" (it's a quote from West Wing)

For an international audience, speaking speed is relevant and high speed is a drawback not a plus, belive me.
