Alt+click does not add link to Workbench (Obsidan 0.12.5 on Linux Mint 20.1)

Open sometxdude opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

I'm running Obsidian 0.12.5 on Linux Mint 20.1 Cinammon.
As far as I know Obsidian 0.12.5 was released today, so maybe there is a conflict with this latest version.
I can see the '+' symbol when I hold down the alt key and click or double-click a wiki link, but it does not append anything to the Workbench. I tried using a different Workbench file and restarting Obsidian. There are no error messages showing in the DevTools console. Running Workbench commands from the Ctrl+P menu works, but the alt-click does not.

Hmm. I'm still able to get it to work (Obsi version 0.12.6). Sometimes, if your cursor isn't already on the line or something, you need to alt+click twice. Does that help?

I dual boot Windows and Linux Mint and didn't see this issue on Windows. There are some Obsidian quirks I've found that only occur when I'm running Linux and this might be one of them. I will do some experimentation to see if I can narrow down the cause.

alt+click doesn't do anything. Meta+alt+click is working for me. I'm on 12.9 on MacOs 11.4.

I just tested Meta+alt+click on Obsidian .12.10 (Flatpak installation) on Linux Mint 20.2 and that works. As with @kevinrothermel on MacOS, only the alt-click or alt-double-click are not working.

Awesome plugin! Thank you for the wonderful work.

Hotkeys are working for me, but neither ALT+Click nor META+ALT+Click is working for me. Running latest Obsidian on MacOS11.4
