Improvements

Editor

  • Empty lines before the frontmatter block are no longer allowed. Previously this was supported by some parts of the app and ignored by others.
  • Adding inline formatting to text will now ignore whitespace at the start and end of the selection.

Properties

  • Date & time fields now include seconds.
  • Added command to fold properties.
  • When toggling "Properties view" core plugin the core plugin will immediately open the "All properties" view.
  • Added a tooltip when hovering over property names in case the property name is too long and gets cut off.
  • Sidebar view now indicates if file properties are invalid.
  • Right-click on the properties heading to quickly add a property or clear the properties from the file.
  • If your file properties cannot be parsed, the exact spot where there YAML is invalid is now highlighted.
