Steps to reproduce

(Below is a video).

Add the following links into Obsidian and hover over them with the mouse.

[[Text1 `Text2` Text3]]
[[Text1 [Text2] Text3]]
[[Text1 *Text2* Text3]]
[[Text1 _Text2_ Text3]]

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? Y

Expected result

When I hover over the links with the mouse the whole text should be highlighted.

Actual result

Only a part of the link is highlighted when hovering over the text.

Do you see this problem in reading view or only in editing view?

Ahh, interesting I just tested it and in Reading View this doesn’t happen. It only happens in Editing Mode - and it behaves like that no matter whether I’m in Source Mode or Live Preview Mode. (I was in sandbox vault while testing this)

Thanks! I updated the title to specify that.
