New implicit file value: blurb

Open evitiello opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I'd like to build a table that lists the title of the page, and a short description like what pops up when you hover over a link. I believe obsidian generates this based on the first sentence of the page.

Would you have a screenshot? I believe implementating something like this could cause slowdown since we'd have to read file contents.

We already read file contents so it's possible, but the Obsidian hover is actually rendering the entire page in a small popup (so it just shows the first few sentences or so). Could maybe expose the first paragraph element.
