Sliding Panes (Andy Matuschak Mode) Plugin

Not here :slight_smile:
I use the “full width” option, with the stack option. I have opened 20 panes for the test. Minimal Theme with css tweaks, with 10 non-native plugins. I use Obsidian on PC with 16go RAM. Live preview and there with pictures, works fine :

@Naya Thanks for your response. I’ve disabled and re-enabled my plug-ins in batches and the issue has disappeared. I can’t exactly say which one it was but the 21 I re-installed after the purge seem fine. I have a test workspace with a ridiculous 27 panes working just fine (Minimal).
You’re feedback encouraged me to whittle down the issue and not assume general limitations of Sliding Panes. (I’m using similar settings as yours and work on the latest macOS / 32 GB RAM). Do you by any chance use the recent plugin Hover Editor?

No, I don’t use it :slight_smile: Maybe testing on plugin after the other would help to solve the issue. It could be a freeze of the GPU process due to overlapping plugins as the pane mode changes the UI. For my limited use of plugin, it is very stable. I sometimes make a little purge of memory cache as well.

@Naya: merci pour ton aide. Have sorted through the possible permutations of my plugins – Sliding Panes is fine with all of them save one. Have left a comment on Github to the dev of the wonderful Hover Editor.

This is a really great idea! I’d like to see the titles rotated when they are switched from the active to the inactive.

greetings!

I have been having issues with “stacking” in Sliding Panes. whenever, I open a new note in a new pane, it does not open properly. the gif will illustrate the problem better. - tried reinstalling the sliding pane plugin, disabled all other community plugins & also, disabled css-snippets.

here is video of the issue Discord

appreciate any advice/pointers. thank you

Regards,
M

I’m also experiencing issues with Sliding Panes since a few days. Sometimes it’s working, sometimes not.

Issues:

  • Opened notes don’t appear visually on the screen (however, I can manipulate and close them with keyboard, which is super dangerous!).
  • Multiple times I’ve ended up with an empty area to the right of my window.
  • Cycling through the panes sometimes does not shift them enough to see the full content. They will be active, but (partly) hidden behind the other panes.

I’ve experiencing this with “Blue Topas” as well as with “Vileplume”. But I think the instability is deeper and not related to the Templates.

Thank you!

I’ve just managed to reproduce the issues described in the previous post and made some screen recordings: WeTransfer - Send Large Files & Share Photos Online - Up to 2GB Free

  • Issue #3 (hidden panes) happens always when I use Obsidian on half of the screen.
  • Issue #1 and #2 (invisible panes and empty area) happened after using the plug-in command Pane relief: Swap pane with previous in split. As far as I can tell the two plugins could be combined without issues in the past.

I am on a Linux Fedora 36 with KDE. All issues also appear with the Obsidian standard Theme and all CSS turned off.


EDIT: the invisible pane issue just appeared in an Obsidian session without ever swapping panes. So it may help to trigger the issue, but inconsistency between the apps seems not to be the source of the problem, I believe.

I haven’t used Obsidian for a while, and as a consequence, I forgot how to create a sliding pane. Would somebody care to answer this newbie-again question? (I do have the plugin installed.)

Hi Technoshaman !
A lot has changed recently with version 0.16. Sliding panes in particular have been integrated as a standard feature, combined with tabs → Stacked tabs - Obsidian Help. You can safely uninstal the late “sliding panes” plugin !
Enjoy life.

And, Pane Relief plugin now has a ‘sliding panes’ toggle which will enable horizontal scrolling.
