Steps to reproduce

Reduce font to 14px or smaller, create a file with many lines of bullets, each of which include internal links to other notes. Enable live preview (WYSIWYG) mode and navigate to the page either via forward or back buttons or via quick switcher.

Expected result

The page loads in preview mode with no visible markdown notation.

Actual result

The links further down the file will display with block notation [[]] and unhighlighted before rendering as normal theme-highlighted text after some load time.

I have a similar issue on MacOS (MacBook Air M1)

Post a screen recording of this happening in the sandbox vault and attach a copy of the file that is causing this.

Thanks for the quick reply! Not sure what the sandbox vault is, but in a brand new vault with no plugins enabled I was able to reproduce.

I created a test file in a brand new vault with no community plugins installed, with the following contents:

then I did the following:

  • clicked through the links in the test file to create them as files in the new vault.
  • changed Editor font size to 14px
  • folded all headings

Then navigating to the page via quick switcher (need to be on another page and navigate TO the problem page) or by nav back buttons, you will see the bottom ones clip and have the slow rendering problem.

@WhiteNoise just wanted to see if the steps I followed were sufficient!

the steps are sufficient. This is not going to get “fixed” anytime soon.
