[Feature Request] Remember Cursor Position ONLY FOR Specific Notes

Open FelipeRearden opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Hello @derwish-pro !

First of all, thank you so much for this plug-in. It fills a gap in Obsidian that is extremely important to my workflow.

I'd like to make a feature related to my workflow:

Create an option to let the user define which notes will be affected by the remember cursor plug-in:

  • I only want to remember the cursor position to a subset of notes in my vault. Specially, the notes related to my reading and writing workflow.
  • In some cases, after finishing to read/write long texts, it's not necessary anymote to remember the cursor position.

As far as I know, there is two ways to do this:

1. YAML

Uses YAML to toggle/activate Remember Cursor Position ON to Specific Notes.

2. Plug-in Settings

Create an option on plug-ins settings to let the user choose which notes will be "remembered".

Inspiration/Information: The plug-in "Hotkeys for Specific Files" found out a way to select notes from the vault and apply some behavior (in his case, to create hotkeys to specific notes)

I hope you like my suggestion! Let me know if you need more information.

Thanks and have a great day!

What about enabling it on a certain note if that note have a tag in its frontmatter?

Maybe is more straight-forward than adding the file to a list on settings, or a separate yaml in the .obsidian/ folder?

A frontmatter field seems the most sensible to me
