Minimal Theme

I’m wondering if it would be possible to add a setting to toggle the way results are highlighted? This is the result of clicking on a link that had [[my-file#a subsection I want to transclude]] for example:

Can the contrast of “Bold” items and headlines in dark mode be increased? It’s very hard to pick out bolded items in “View mode” compared to the “Light theme”. Some examples:

“Fundamental Attribution Error” is clearly visible in light mode

It’s a bit harder to pick out in dark mode

I would recommend tweaking this via a CSS snippet because the visual weight depends so much on personal preference, the fonts you use, and the theme variant/colors.

Your snippet should be something like:

.theme-dark {
--bold-weight:800;
}

I’m trying to figure out what’s going on in your screenshot. It seems like you have some modifications to show spaces that may be causing conflicts? If you use the vanilla version of Minimal theme, the style you should see when clicking from a link is a yellow highlight that fades away. The outlines are only used for the “find in file” functionality. Do you still see this in the default Minimal styles? Can you share a video/GIF of the issue?

I’m getting this effect with plain Minimal (selected through ‘Community Themes’), with no plugins or snippets.

@Jeffurry I am seeing the same thing. but only if I have file in the edit mode. If in preview mode it highlights the entire line/block. @argentum I have seen that type of result before, I don’t remember the condition that caused it.

Thanks for the beautiful theme! Minor issue: when I have an equation bracketed in $$ on a level 4 (say) title, which capitalises the letter automatically, I cannot enter a simple equation such as $x^2$

Thanks for your help I think I figured it out. If you download the latest version from community themes it should look better.

Well, this is weird, I made sure I had the latest version of minimal before posting, but it seems that I didn’t. After (re-) updating it does go to the highlight version and not the boxes.

Just in case someone bumps into this and wanted to know about the spaces: I had the Show Whitspace plugin activated and I’m using spaces instead of tabs (this is a core preference). None of it was related to my problem above, it seems I just had an outdated version.

Hi @kepano. First of all, thank you for this great theme.
There is another topic to share our Minimal Theme personal screenshot/configuration but I share it here to signal a small ‘bug’ on the header: the icon and the title are in conflict with the red/yellow/green buttons in title bar (with the “hide title bar” of Hider plugin activated, of course).
Thanks.

This is fixed if you update to the latest version. This was quite complex to solve given the number of different possible scenarios. Let me know if it works for you now.

It works perfectly. Thank you so much.
[with the latest version I only had two ‘surprises’: 1) the changing of the settings tab font (from text UI to preview font - solved with a css snippet); 2) the changing of the settings graph tab]
Just one more question: Why does the graph change the appearance (font size, line thickness, etc.) when using an external display?
Thanks

Hello, I encounter a bug on macOS Big Sur.
I have the plugin and the theme enabled.

I enabled auto-switch between day and night in order to test the option the first day, and deactivated it (mostly because I love the white theme). But since then, each night, it goes to the black theme, and I have to keep reverting it.

This could be due to one of these issues:

  1. Your Obsidian Settings are set to the Dark theme (change it to Light in Settings > Appearance)
  2. You have another plugin e.g. California Coast, that is overriding your settings

Obsidian settings are always in white.
The only plugins I have are git, sliding panes and the minimal theme settings.

I deleted every other css themes, even that I think it’s not related

A reminder that Minimal Theme, and my plugins (Hider, System Dark Mode, Advanced Appearance and Minimal Theme Settings), are offered as pay what you want software.

I develop them in my spare time because I love using Obsidian.

If you’ve enjoyed using my theme and plugins, please consider supporting my work.

I’m having trouble with some weird spacings when Andy mode is enabled. Can’t even imagine why!

If I disable frameless mode on Hider plugin, those spaces show just fine:

I just pushed a quick fix for this. Might need some more refinements but it should help.

It worked, except for the page icon that’s now under the traffic light buttons :wink:

That’s on my radar. I will think about how to make that better.
