English · 简体中文

A hidden table of contents in a corner of the editor. It shows a column of short dashes (one per heading, the current one darker) and expands into an outline card on hover. Click an entry to jump there; the target line is centered.

  • Choose the position in settings: left or right, top, middle or bottom (default: left, middle).
  • Lists the top, headings (up to h3 by default, with a level switcher when deeper headings exist), and the bottom.
  • Journal notes are split at horizontal rules into DONE / DOING / TODO sections. The journal folder follows the core Daily notes folder unless set in this plugin's settings.
  • Hidden on notes containing dataview code blocks.
  • On mobile, tap to open and tap again to close.

Install

Download main.js, manifest.json and styles.css from Releases into <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/hover-outline/ and enable it under Settings → Community plugins. Or install with BRAT: MatsuriMW/hover-outline.
