I have been working with long documents with lots of comments inserted in them ( %% text %%). I have developed a plugin to help with 2 use cases:
- Extracting all of the comments for viewing, editing or deleting in a side panel
- A list view of all comments, sequentially in the document
- An outline view where the comments are grouped under headings which can be expanded and collapsed like Obsidian Outliner
- Being able to print to pdf and show these comments
- I also added the functionality to be able to convert the individual comments (%% text %%) into Obsidian callouts (configurable in plugin settings, defaults to comment)
The plugin was written with Claude and is not published (I am a hack at coding) so you will have to install it manually or use BRAT.
