Howdy! As of 2022 I’ve been using this theme. Because of that I have also been tweaking it and making it stylized for my own use. Because of that I have removed the CSS related to Andy Mode and instead use the plugin in. In addition to that I’ve been using horizontal headers instead of vertical ones. I also updated the design to be more muted for headers. Here is the Github page for the theme.
obsidian.css - my 2022 updated theme
obsidianAlt.css - a muted version of my original theme
obsidianOriginal.css - the original CSS if you want to keep that
Major Design Changes (01/07/2022)

Fix Left Sidebar Collapsed Arrow (Not Visible)

Fix the Selector Icon for Notes put in the Sidebars
One thing I’m struggling with is that my Obsidian-window is often pretty small horizontally (as I work with one computer screen only). With the default Obsidian theme words wrap then but with this theme words don’t wrap, making it difficult to use the editor. See example below:
@lizardmenfromspace No I mean the insider build for release 0.70 - big changes in how panels work. Group release is usually fairly quick (few days) after the insider build shows up. Hopefully the fix will not be too difficult - I really like this theme.
@Gnopps it has word wrap, you are just getting beyond the minimum width of a note, which is necessary for the note stacking to work. You can try experimenting with minimum note width to see if you can get it within an acceptable width.
Hey man, amazing theme! If you could show me how to turn off the Andy Matuschak Mode. I tend to read and refer multiple notes at the same time, and so it would be more convenient for me if I was able to see multiple notes without them sliding under each other.
Open the obsidian.css file and search for “Andy”. Comment out the lines from your first match down to the next comment. Save and switch to Obsidian.
That should have turned it off.
Since updating to v0.7.3 the file selector pane is very difficult to read as it has grey text on a grey background (light theme). Would it be possible to do something about this?
Same problem here. I’ve switched back to using the Roam theme in the light mode.
Another feature that is frustrating me is that - before, in the absence of the [[Andy Matuschak mode]] I could scroll across panels, and they would all remain in the same size. Now all windows have reduced in size
Just curious, might be off-topic, if the names of document are in Zettelkasten style (only timestamps), how helpful would the graph mode be in this case?
@Gnopps ya they reworked the side panels and it broke all my CSS I’ll let you know when I get it all fixed
@Kuncy I don’t follow, sounds like a problem with the original theme not mine?
@ghprince you can still use it as a navigation tool, but it definitely has reduced functionality. I’m not completely settled on what my note title strategy is going to end up being. I’m still thinking about it and experimenting.
This might be off-topic, but that light blue square (in light mode) looks like a block reference or something. what is that? sorry if this is a noob question.
