Graph view in 1.0 fails to work properly

Steps to reproduce

I attempt to show the graph view by clicking the icon on the side strip.

Expected result

I expect to see a full graph of my vault, along with buttons to modify and filter my searches.

Actual result

I see the links for one random note, and no others (I have hundreds of cards in my vault). There are no buttons or menus for filtering or anything.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Custom theme and snippets: for cosmetic issues, please first try updating your theme and disabling your snippets. If still not fixed, please try to make the issue happen in the Sandbox Vault or disable community theme and snippets.
Community plugins: for bugs, please first try updating all your plugins to latest. If still not fixed, please try to make the issue happen in the Sandbox Vault or disable community plugins.


Additional information

I am not sure there’s anything wrong there. Anyway

Base steps:

  1. Check your Theme for updates: Settings > Appearance > Themes
  2. Check your plugins for updates: Settings > Community Plugins > Check for updates
  3. If you’re using custom snippets, consider disabling them.
  4. Restart Obsidian

If it’s still broken:

  1. Try going back to the default theme to check if it’s an issue with the theme
  2. Enter restricted mode and restart Obsidian to check if it’s an issue with the theme.

Two major changes are:

  • Instead of using Ctrl+Click (Cmd+click on macOS) to open links, you must now use Ctrl+Alt+Click (Cmd+Opt+Click on macOS)
  • The hotkey to toggle task completion has changed: you can reset it in Settings → Hotkeys (search for “Toggle Checkbox Status”)

Thanks for the suggestions. I’ve tried all of those things, and the problem persists as I’ve described it. Very perplexing.

here’s the Debug info for the state with everything disabled:

I am not sure I see anything wrong with this. Anyway.
Use the default theme, disable all snippets, enter restricted mode, restart obsidian. Post a screen recording of the graph view not working.

Again, I did all these things, and the problem persists. (Please see the screenshot). I even tried to reinstall Obsidian from scratch, and the problem STILL is there. I removed all the snippets, but the Debug still says there’s one installed. Is there a way to do a clean reinstall of the program, so that nothing from before is preserved? Thanks for your help with this frustrating problem. (None of the dots in the graph correspond to any of my note pages on the left)

What happens if you zoom in? How is your graph view configured?

Is it possible that you have search pre filled in place?

Can you go peek inside YourVault/.obsidian and see if you have any conflicted settings files? Do you store your vault in a cloud syncing tool?

If you have any sync-conflicted files, a setting might be getting stuck or something. Look for any files with numbers, or extra text (inside brackets) with a date.

Thank you for your help. I decided to delete everything (not my vault!) and start over. The graph view now functions normally, and the tedium of reinstalling plug-ins was worth it.
