Good afternoon. Does the Obsidian SDK support the ability for plugin developers to add submenus or nested menus when right-clicking a file/folder in the navigator and/or note?
Thanks!
This is how to do it for file/folder in the left file-navigation panel : Task-Board/main.ts at 220c81f942e2ec25f9fce1e4ef5144e02d457af6 · tu2-atmanand/Task-Board · GitHub
This is how to do it on basically any HTML component in Obsidian : Task-Board/src/components/KanbanView/LazyColumn.tsx at 220c81f942e2ec25f9fce1e4ef5144e02d457af6 · tu2-atmanand/Task-Board · GitHub
In the second example, you may see the way to add the subMenu as well. I am not sure, but I think subMenu is an internal API. Someone may please confirm this.
Thank you for the reply. I ask because I use a couple of plugins that add too many options on the right-click menu and have submitted issues asking of the commands could me moved to sub-menus to clean up a messy contest menu. I was told that sub-menu capabilities are not part of the Obsidian API. But I have seen some extensions (like Folder Notes) that do use submenus so I thought I would ask if submenus are supported. I would like to send some information to the plugin developers to see if submenus can be implemented.
