Feature Request: Indent all lines to current level when multiple lines are pasted
Let's say I have this list
- Item 1
- Item 2
-
and I want to add these items with the caret on the blank line:
Item 3
Item 4
I want the list to look like this:
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
- Item 4
As of now, the plugin would only do this:
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
Item 4
I believe because the plugin is trying to do this https://github.com/jglev/obsidian-paste-mode/issues/19?
Currently the plugin would do this
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
Item 4
instead of what you reported, which is
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
Item 4
In that case, I think @jglev should consider adding a setting for how its pastes, whether it just indents like this:
- Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Item 4
Or also includes bullet points, numbers, or checkboxes depending on which its being pasted on, how I'd like it to:
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
- Item 4
Using your example at the beginning, this is what I wanted (and expected):
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
- Item 4
In fact, the behavior
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
Item 4
really confused me and for a while I thought it was a bug. But I came here and see noone reported it so I thought it's just me and my inexperience with Markdown or coming from an outliner (Logseq). I understand the behavior now (posting muli-line as pressing Shift + Enter) but indeed I'd like to have a bullet points option. (You then can use the built-in commands in Obsidian to convert them to checkboxes or numbered list).
Thank you both for your correspondence! I'm sorry for my delay in responding; it's been a busy few months! I'm writing just to say that this is on my radar, and that I am starting to think through this.
