Setting to open notes SCROLLED ALL THE WAY DOWN

[Silviu]

Use case or problem

I often work with long notes. I want them to open by default scrolled down!
This would make perfect sense for many people… because we usually ADD text to existing notes, so always having to scroll down before typing is very frustrating.

This is particularly important on the mobile app, where scrolling manually is tedious.

Proposed solution

Whenever opening a note, open it scrolled all the way down to the end of the file.
Maybe have this behavior as a setting that one can change
1-normal behavior, like today
2-scrolled down behavior, like I’m suggesting.

Observation: remembering the cursor position is not needed. All I want is for notes to open scrolled all the way to the end. I basically NEVER want to add notes in the middle of a document, only at the very end…

Current workaround (optional)

There is no available workaround on the phone app.
The “Remember cursor position” plug in only works on Desktop, and is anyway currently broken.

Plugins to remember cursor position on startup or switching file don't work anymore

I’ve tried all the plugins to remember the cursor position available in the Plugin Community, and I know that at least one used to work. Did some recent Obsidian update break these? Any advice on how to get this functionality back? Thanks!

How to always start at the bottom of a note OR remember the cursor position on startup?

Things I have tried I have tried Remember cursor position and remember file state but they don’t persists on startup. Remember cursor position, in theory, is what I want. But it doesn’t persist if I close obsidian and reopen it UNLESS I close all my tabs first. What I’m trying to do I have two files about 10,000 lines long that I need to open every day and add a little bit of text to. I have been using VScode which handles it beautifully, but I’d rather use Obsidian. How can I get Obsidian…

Canvas - remember scroll position of notes

Use case or problem Canvas often refreshes itself - when zooming out and then back in, or I think even changing tabs and coming back. When this refresh happens, all the notes in the canvas are refreshed and scrolled back to the top. If we go to a real world analogy, if the canvas is my “desk” or “vision board” with multiple documents/notebooks open on it to certain pages, every time I step away from my desk or step a few feet back to “zoom out”, someone is “cleaning up” and closing all my not…

Restore last document position/scroll position/cursor position

Hi. I wrote a plugin that remembers the position of the cursor and scroll for each note. Look for “Remember cursor position” in the community plugins list. Here is the repository: GitHub - derwish-pro/obsidian-remember-cursor-position: Obsidian plugin. Remember cursor position for each note

Every time Obsidian opens a document to read after startup and then enters edit mode, the cursor will always jump to the top of the documentgra

What exactly is your feature request? Do you want obsidian to remember the cursor position when you last edited the document? Or do you want an option to have the cursor at the bottom of the document? Anyway, check out this community plugin: Also, there already is a feature request open: You can find several more or less related feature requests by searching for “cursor position”.
