Things I have tried
Renaming files and aliases
What I’m trying to do
When I open the quick switcher using cmd - O, I don’t understand the results.
e.g.
-
While most files are listed by the file name, some are listed also with the path in front of the name (not under it as with aliases). I thought the path was only if there were two files with the same name, and then it displayed each with the path in front. Am I correct on this assumption? I also thought maybe because some of these files had the same aliases, but when deleting them, it made no difference. You can see in the screenshot how “Elections, German” & “Elections, American” starts with the file name, but under those, instead of starting with the file name, it starts with the path to the next file.

Sometimes when I search using an apostrophe, such as “Smith’s . . .” I only get a single result, but when I search using just “Smith” I get all the results. However, other times, searching the same term with the apostrophe works. No clue why is sometimes does and sometimes doesn’t.

I don’t know if this is related, but I have a post in obsidian mobile about my iCloud files not showing up on the phone if they are not in one of my interior folders in obsidian.
