Obsidian provides autocomplete suggestions for property values, for example in Bases or in the Properties tab. I noticed that very long values are not suggested for autocomplete. Is there a reason why the maximum length of a value is limited? If so, can this limit be circumvented? I sometimes have very long values in my projects property and would like them to be suggested.
For better understanding, I did a small test:
I used a list property with the following values:
- Long string with some spaces
- Long string without any spaces
- Long string with spaces in between – maximal length
- Long string with spaces in between – maximal length + 1
As shown in the image, only values 2 and 3 are suggested for autocomplete in Bases. Value 1 and 4 are not suggested:
This was the property used for the test:
