When in a card/file and trying to add a link to another file, I either type [[ or choose the item from the toolbar. I then type a word that I think is in the title of the card I’m looking for (could be in the body too). For example, I might type “[[action]]” (without the quotes). Obsidian gives me a list of files that include the word action but it also includes anything with the letters a c t i o n in that order. For example, “In aconversation, be a midwife”. How do I get it to only return items with the whole word “action”?
Things I have tried
I’ve tried putting the word “action” in quotes in the search: [[“action”]] (with quotes)
I’ve tried on both PC and iOS
If you search this forum for Quick Switcher, you’ll find a wide range of opinions how it should work. I haven’t found your idea, so you might have to write a feature request.
Thanks again for replying. This is the weirdest search behavior I’ve ever seen. Can’t believe it works this way. I guess I’ll learn to live with it. I’ll do the search you suggest so at least I’ll understand why anyone would want it this way.
