Collapse the embedded results

[Dania]

I have a global index which has all the titles of my notes tagged with one common tag. I have created a query box in the global index note.

tag:#TheEnglishLegalSystem

The result:

What I’m trying to do

I would like the result to look more like this:

Things I have tried

I have tried adding css snippets. I have used various css codes. Some gathered via google and others via ChatGPT.
One example:
/* Hide Embedded search header text and icon */

/* Hide the query header text */
.index-query-header-title {
display: none;
}

/* Hide the query header icon */
.index .markdown-preview-view .internal-query.is-embed .internal-query-header-icon {
display: none;
}

None worked.

How to go about it? Thank you.

Previously I would recommend GitHub - nothingislost/obsidian-query-control: An experimental Obsidian plugin that adds controls to embedded queries for this, but it’s currently broken without a valiant half-fix.

I believe this is the feature request thread; give the first few posts a

Add UI and scripting support to embedded queries

Just to add more clarity from my perspective of what is wanted / needed in this overall feature request. I believe there are two parts to it: Add the Search results settings buttons like the screenshot below (same ones we get with Search results in the left side panel Search view) [image] Add ability to add syntax within a Search Query embed to persist the settings like a sort, show more context, collapse etc. parameters so that the Search Query embed itself can dictate how the results a…

I have tried the plugin and also the suggested code within the thread. The BRAT plugin. I may have to re-read the documentation. It wasn’t clear at first. And yes, the link is no longer. Thank you, ariehen.

I have tried the BRAT plugin. I also saw the latest remarks to the plugin. The plugin is simply not working in my Obsidian setup. Argh!!! I will have to keep trying.

arisen, you wrote in some other posts that the plugin worked for you. Must one grab the theme too? I have tried all sorts of ways. Any tips? Thanks.

The plugin half-works with the fork. There are no controls/buttons in Search or embedded search, but the extended syntax works.

You need to BRAT or manually install the plugin, then replace the original main.js file with the forked version.

Okay, the steps you showed above worked. The new file essentially made the query control obsolete. Great. I now have the title collapsed. Good to go. Thanks you, ariehen.
