Quickly navigate between links, or jump to any word on the page using hotkeys.

Jump To Link

Jump to Anywhere (RegEx based navigation)

Lightspeed

Settings

How to use (Link Navigation)

  • Open command palette (Ctrl+P), find and choose the Jump to link: Show link hints command
  • To reach it faster, assign your own hotkey under Settings -> Hotkeys (the plugin no longer ships default hotkeys, so they cannot clash with yours)
  • If there are any links in opened file you should see letters over them which should be pressed to open the link
  • Hold Shift while pressing link letters should open note in a new pane

How to use Jump to Anywhere (Editor Navigation)

  • Use the command palette, or a hotkey you assigned to Jump to anywhere regex, to instantly jump to any word on the page!
  • If you hold Shift while pressing the hotkey, you will select to the word you jump to.
  • Jump to Anywhere is a RegEx based navigation feature, similar to vim-easymotion.
  • Jump to Anywhere works both in regular editor mode, and in VIM mode!
  • Custom RegEx can be configured to user preference
  • Default configuration adds a label on words 3 characters or greater: [Regex: \b\w{3,}\b]
  • Suggested Characters used for link hints setting for Jump to Anywhere: asdfghjklqwertyuiopzxcvbnm
    • These settings ensure that all 26 letters are available for jumping in documents with large amounts of text.
    • If there are more matches than available letters, the label will show undefined and it will not be possible to jump there.

How to use Lightspeed

Lightspeed is originally a vim plugin similar to vim-sneak or easymotion. See this issue for videos.

You can either assign a hotkey, or use it in combination with the Obsidian vimrc plugin:

exmap jumpToLink obcommand mrj-jump-to-link:activate-lightspeed-jump
nmap gs :jumpToLink<CR>

The idea and original code is from @kohane27.

The look of it when invoked can be modified with CSS. By default, it is:

.theme-dark, .theme-light {
  --jump-to-link-lightspeed-color: var(--text-muted);
}

Lightspeed is only supported in the new Codemirror 6 editor.

How to install the plugin
