First header has unproportinal margin with frontmatter present and no title

[Pummelfisch]

Steps to reproduce

1. Open a new File and put a frontmatter in it. Doesnt even need to contain anything.
2. Put a header on top of the document.
3. Put “Properties in document” on hidden.
4. Deactive showing title of the note inside of the note.
5. Inspect the margin of the header. It is unproportional. The top margin is way bigger than the bottom one.

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Yes

Expected result

The margin should at least be the same height on top and bottom. It is that way if there is no frontmatter-section present.
Or even better: The top margin not beeing there. This is the behaviour of the “show title in note” feature.

Actual result

Top margin is bigger than bottom margin.

Additional information

For the debug-information i used the sandbox-vault and deactivated showing the title in the note and put “Properties in document” on hidden.

Here is an image how it looks without the frontmatter:

@Pummelfisch

Or even better: The top margin not beeing there. This is the behaviour of the “show title in note” feature.

Yes. I have suggested that as well here although it should be a separate post describing a new CSS variable “first heading top margin”.

[Pummelfisch]

Where did you suggest that, have I missed the post?

thanks

Does that behavior persist with the default theme and restricted mode turned on?

In my experience, the Typewriter Scroll plugin produces huge gaps between front matter and the note’s content (whether there’s a header at the top or not).

I switched to the newer Typewriter Mode plugin, which fixed the problem.

[Pummelfisch]

Yes this happens with the default Theme and also the default Sandbox-Vault. No external plugins are enabled.

This will be fixed in v1.7, thanks.
