[Feature Request] Add option to automatically pin hover editor once user starts editing

Open ivan-lednev opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

It's annoying to find myself editing the parent document once I start typing and accidentally move the cursor away from the hover editor. I think the behavior described in the title is as intuitively expected by the user as auto-pinning on drag/resize.

I also wanted to thank you for this amazing plugin :heart:.

Do you mean automatically pinned after opening the hover window? If so, I have that need too. Because generally when I use a hover window, I just want that window to display a particular note. So I'd also like to suggest if you can add an option to automatically pin the hover window after opening it.

Actually under options, Hover Editor > Auto Pin, set that to always to achieve what you want.

OP is requesting that pin be activated when the user starts editing. Right now, the hover window can disappear even while editing inside the hover window.

I second this, i need this so bad.

i work real fast and windows keep popping away because you edit and you think you moved it but did not. and then boom gone.

so a trigger to pin while you edit would be perfect 👍
