Could this be related to a plugin you are using? I am not sure what this could be due to. Perhaps worth asking in the Discord.

I understand support for transparent windows isn’t currently supported (?). Nevertheless: I noticed a small issue on Windows 10 when transparency is enabled (this might not be an issue with the theme, because transparency is broken on Windows in general for quite a few people), causing the action button area to darken. This happens whether or not Focus Mode is enabled; happens in both light and dark mode; happens whether or not sidebar borders are turned on. I’m using Obsidian v0.10.11 (Installer version: v0.10.7) running on Windows 10 Pro 20H2 19042.746.

At the moment transparency is not a priority for the theme due to the performance issues it causes. I would recommend checking out the California Coast theme which I believe has good transparency support.

#258

Understood. Appreciate the response!

For anyone else having the same issue, it seemed to be remedied by removing background-color: transparent from .workspace-ribbon.mod-left.is-collapsed {}. Doing so makes the action button area behave as expected.

#259

I do have issues with the “export to PDF” feature when using this theme (or California Coast theme); no issues with the default Obsidian theme.

See attached screenshots: from the moment I use italics in my note, text is scrambled in the PDF.

Anyone encountering the same issue?

If someone has time to investigate, I would love some help on the PDF export styles for Minimal. It’s not a feature I use so I haven’t prioritized it yet. I’m open to contributions via pull requests or sharing your snippets here.

Issue fixed by setting font to “Inter”.

#262

Okay, just a quick update and the solution to my emoji-rendering problem:

You were right, the problem was caused by the plugin “Emoji Toolbar” (I should have investigated this obvious connection earlier haha). The Plugin Option “Twitter Emoji” must be turned off to fix this.

thanks for your help!

I’m having a similar issue. The PDF is rendered correctly, however when I use italics, the PDF export does not honor it. (Both styles are rendered excaltly the same).
Tested on Windows 10, obsd v0.10.12, latest minimal theme. I’ll try it on my Mac later today.

#264

Interesting. I have not been able to replicate this issue on Mac. Here is the default font stack:

-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,"Segoe UI",Roboto,Oxygen-Sans,Ubuntu,Cantarell,"Helvetica Neue",sans-serif;

This code tries to use the default system font across OSs. It would be interesting to see if you can identify which font is causing the problem by removing fonts one at a time from this list (in the custom font settings of Minimal)

Hi @kepano, I salute you referencing the Apple HIG, I have installed this theme. My main issue with the theme and the reason I have installed it is that I have hoped it would switch automatically when I toggle appearance in macOS. This for some reason is not working. Is this something on the roadmap still?

Update

You probably going to suggest the plugin and the another plugin, I know in fact it’s possible to achieve this without any plugins, this can work in pure CSS by removing hard coded background colours and using following CSS:

:root {
    color-scheme: light dark;
}

More here https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2019/511/

Please do not suggest a plugin as enabling plugins opens up a security risk.

#266

Indeed this functionality is available in the Minimal Theme plugin. The code is open source so you can evaluate the security risk for yourself. Unfortunately hard coding this into the theme CSS is a non-option because this would prevent users from overriding the system’s setting. You can always modify the CSS yourself via snippets or the theme file if you want to implement this solution without using the plugin.

I keep having trouble with the theme switching to Dark/Light mode automatically. I have to go to the Minimal Theme settings and deactivate/activate the “Use system level setting for light or dark mode” for the theme to pick up the change. Obsidian base color scheme is set to “Light”. Is there a configuration I’m missing to get this to work?

#268

@PR-C, in my experience, I have found the theme to switch with my system if Obsidian is open. On startup, Obsidian takes on the “Base Theme,” which is why I believe the setting is not working as you expected. There is a hotkey included with the Minimal Theme Settings plugin called “Minimal Theme Settings: Switch between light and dark mode,” which I have found helpful. If anyone knows how to get around the limitation in Obsidian, I’d love to hear about it!

#269

Thanks @JonathanBuchh, in fact, this is the same behavior I’m experiencing. Because I close Obsidian at certain times in the day I don’t get the switch on startup. But leaving it open works just fine. Cheers!

Small updates have been pushed to Minimal theme to address issues with image width and lists.

Will investigate the issue with the system theme.

Thanks, Stephan!

#272

Does this theme allow for spell correction and capitalization?

#273

Hi Stephan,

I just found a bug in the Minimal Theme.

When I make a number list that does start with “1” it shows it starts from “1” in the Preview.

Please see the screenshot.

Thanks!

Can I ask, what is the use case? The reason it’s happening is that the incrementing is done in CSS and it assumes that you’re starting at 1.

This is a solution you can add as a CSS snippet, but it isn’t a very elegant solution because I don’t think it can be done generically

ol[start="2"] { counter-reset: counter 1;}
ol[start="3"] { counter-reset: counter 2;}
ol[start="4"] { counter-reset: counter 3;}
ol[start="5"] { counter-reset: counter 4;}
ol[start="6"] { counter-reset: counter 5;}
ol[start="7"] { counter-reset: counter 6;}

Alternatively you could create a snippet to remove the ol styling altogether.
