Require ⌘ to trigger page preview on hover for graph view.See the preview of the note.
Nothing happens. No preview.
Workaround is holding ⌘, hovering out of the node (note), and hovering back to a node.
I can confirm this bug, on windows it is also not working when pressing ctrl.
It works for me. press ctrl/cmd hover the mouse over a note.
Post a screen recording of this not working in the sandbox vault
You’re using the workaround as noted in the post. Try to hover first and press/cmd
this is not a the workaround this is how it works. you must first press ctrl/cmd and then hover.
Not just in graph view, but everywhere.
Not just in graph view, but everywhere.
That is false. You can Hover to a link and press ctrl/cmd inside notes.
your are right, this was changed recently. open a feature request for graph view.
Nevermind, let’s keep it in bug reports.
Renamed BR for clarity.
Yeah… Hey @WhiteNoise, no disrespect but I wasn’t too happy about the responses here.
You didn’t read the full post the first time, you made a false claim (the part about not just in graph view, but everywhere), and then you told me to open a feature request because this was a recent change. Pressing cmd/ctrl and hovering to preview works fine for everywhere else. I haven’t tested all of them thoroughly but it works for notes, search, mentions, and file explorer.
Regardless, thanks for taking a second look
I didn’t make a false claim intentionally. This was changed recently, previously you needed to hold ctlr/cmd before hovering. it was the only way it worked.
I apologize for not reading completely your post.
WhiteNoise,
Why is the preview behavior different between the editor and the graph view? Wouldn’t it make more sense that you should be able to hover over a graph node and then click ctrl/cmd to see the preview page. If this behaviour has been added everywhere else, what’s preventing it from being added to the graph view. I find it annoying every time I forget that you have to pre press the cmd button before hovering over a node to get the preview. Is this a bug or a intended feature? are there any plans to fix or change this behaviour in the graph view?
I have seen several posts from people on this sub confused about this exact behaviour, so clearly it’s poorly documented and inconsistent with how page previews work in the rest of Obsidian
