Expand Selection

An Obsidian plugin designed to simplify section selection with a single hotkey. This plugin is especially useful for mobile users who struggle with precise cursor control.

Features

Expand to Section (Shift-Cmd-L)

• Single Command: Quickly select the entire section your cursor is in. Repeatedly pressing the hotkey will expand the selection to parent sections and eventually the entire note.
• Mobile Convenience: Designed to overcome the challenges of mobile interfaces where cursors can be difficult to control.

Integration with Code Shortcuts

• Line Selection: For line-by-line selection, use the Code Shortcuts plugin with the hotkey Cmd-L.

Mobile Interface Challenges

• Cursor Control: On mobile, grabbing a cursor can cause it to move off-screen, making it hard to track the selection.
• Visibility Issues: It's often difficult to see where the top of the cursor is, leading to inaccurate selections.
• Efficiency: Simplifies the selection process, reducing the need for precise cursor adjustments.

This plugin is ideal for users who want to streamline their selection process, especially on mobile devices where traditional selection methods can be cumbersome.
