    Where is the 
    dendron
    command in the path ? (To run from bash script)     
    npm install -g @dendronhq/dendron-cli
    solved the issue.

    When running 
    npm install -g @dendronhq/dendron-cli
    I see following warnings
    Copy code
    npm WARN deprecated mdast@3.0.0: `mdast` was renamed to `remark`
npm WARN deprecated @types/execa@2.0.0: This is a stub types definition. execa provides its own type definitions, so you do not need this installed.
npm WARN deprecated har-validator@5.1.5: this library is no longer supported
npm WARN deprecated querystring@0.2.1: The querystring API is considered Legacy. new code should use the URLSearchParams API instead.
..
..
npm WARN deprecated mkdirp@0.3.0: Legacy versions of mkdirp are no longer supported. Please update to mkdirp 1.x. (Note that the API surface has changed to use Promises in 1.x.)
npm WARN deprecated uuid@3.4.0: Please upgrade  to version 7 or higher.  Older versions may use Math.random() in certain circumstances, which is known to be problematic.  See https://v8.dev/blog/math-random for details.
npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142
npm WARN deprecated core-js@2.6.12: core-js@<3.3 is no longer maintained and not recommended for usage due to the number of issues. Because of the V8 engine whims, feature detection in old core-js versions could cause a slowdown up to 100x even if nothing is polyfilled. Please, upgrade your dependencies to the actual version of core-js.
    Anything to worry ?

    No, it should be fine. 
    dendron-cli
    does everything local and the pages are static, so there are no security risks.

    What is the 'ideal/intended' way for folks to open files? I presume lookup? Been enjoying Dendron, just trying to figure out my workflow and am used to opening just a handful of files at a time, but it appears to not really matter with Dendron.

    Has anyone tried using a single Spell Right (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ban.spellright) dictionary across several vaults? I can't get it to work as it always wants to save words into a specific vault's dictionary, and I don't want to pollute Spell Right's user dictionary. I'm thinking of just symlinking the 
    spellright.dict
    file across vaults, but it feels like a bad hack.

    Lookup is indeed the right way. You can also always use "Dendron: Goto Note" with a link selected which is bound to "Ctrl+Enter" by default. I personally use the lookup if I'm creating a new note or I'm trying to search for something, and just Goto links otherwise.

    Is there a way to make the labels show up for Show Schema Graph v2 at a lower zoom level? 🙂
  • t
    After looking around some more, I discovered the 
    min-zoomed-font-size
    property for the labels, which, upon lowering to a more reasonable size in my opinion, solved the problem. ✔️
  • t
    In other things: it must've been absolutely ages ago, but when did the question mark disappear for notes outside of the schemas? (this good ol' buddy: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/c5e5adde-5459-409b-b34d-a0d75cbb1052.html#unknown-schema)

    Does Dendron use Markdown Preview Enhanced?
  • a
    Is there a sane way to have multiline table cells in Markdown without having to embed html tables or use 
    br
    tags and make your markdown hard to read?
  • n
    as far as I know, yes. it works well with it

    has anyone used the frontmatter option 
    sort_order: reverse
    succesfully? mine doesn't seem to want to sort in reverse..
  • t
    discovered and used where, please? and with which values?
  • h
    A quick look at the code, it seems like it's gone 😅 I'll take a closer look what happened here. Good catch.
  • h
    We used to bundle 
    Dendron Markdown Preview Enhanced
    which builds on top of the original extension to add Dendron specific functionality, but we've deprecated it. The current 
    Show Preview V2
    is included in Dendron and you don't need another extension to preview. Not all things will work if you try to use MPE with Dendron.
  • n
    for the frontmatter 
    sort_order: reverse
    option, is this supposed to be applied to the children links in the page? cant seem to get mine working
  • h
    Yes, it's for collections. do you have 
    has_collection: true
    set for the page?
  • h
    This is part of cytoscape.js styling which can be applied in 
    Dendron: Configure Graph Style (css)
    like so:
    Copy code
    node {
  min-zoomed-font-size: 5; (default is 32)
}
  • h
    I apologize. The CSS properties that we use directly from cytoscape isn't thoroughly documented on our end. I'll make sure the docs for this get updated for easier discoverability.
  • u
    Good to know. How do I override styles in V2?
  • h
    That is coming soon 😅
  • t
    Thanks! citoscape has tons of juicy things so it would be great to know what and how is accessible via Dendron
  • h
    I agree 🙂 I spend way too much time customizing my graphs so I try to limit myself from diving into what cytoscape can do haha. Figuring out what's exposed by cytoscape was also one of the pain points I've encountered so I'll try to document what I've gone through and let you know when the doc gets an overhaul.
  • t
    Thanks. Generally, it would be great if more of cytoscape functionality could be exposed and usable in Dendron is some standard/recommended way. Otherwise it is like driving a super-car in a 40km residential zone. 🙂
  • n
    that works thx 🙂 what format does the 
    date:
    take? can it take for example: 
    date: 2021-08-29
    ?
  • n
    ^ ah yes it works with 
    date: 2021-08-29
  • h
    any ISO 8601 string should work 🙂
  • h
    otherwise it will use the reserved 
    created
    field to determine the order.
