Obsidian Editor does not automatically pair Markdown syntax for italics and bold text on Obsidian Mobile v1.0.2 when “Auto pair Markdown syntax” Editor setting is enabled.
Steps taken:
- Type
*
in the editor with “Auto pair Markdown syntax” enabled.
Desired result:
-
*|*
appears with cursor between auto-paired asterisks.
Result:
-
*|
appears with cursor after single asterisk.
Also, but unrelated, it would be great if the ⌘+I
shortcut respected the “Auto pair” setting; i.e. pressing it once with the setting disabled would produce a single *
(so the same shortcut adds another single *
to end the emphasis) and pressing it once with the setting enabled would produce *|*
with the cursor between the asterisks.
