    I'm sure I'm just missing a configuration setting somewhere, but is there a way to enable dark mode for the preview window?

    I found the setting. It was in the settings for the Dendron Markdown Preview Enhanced plugin.

    One other question. I seem to have the worst time with Wikilinks. I suspect user error. Shouldn't the title of the page linked to render in the markdown preview? Here's a side-by-side of the editor and the preview.

    The note that is linked to absolutely has a title. The frontmatter of that note looks like this:

    You can use the
    useFMTitle: true
    option in
    dendron.yml
    to display the title in preview: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/f83c1d87-eac0-48f3-a5cf-8a69989d8ec1/#usefmtitle

    Can you try using "Dendron: Show Preview" to see if it works in the Dendron preview? (This is different from the Dendron Markdown Enhanced Preview)

    Yes, it works correctly there. Actually, that preview is a whole lot better looking than DMEP. What's the difference between the two?

    HTML tables / NextJS question here: - NextJS published Dendron looks great - am already using it live in production - but the html tables are unformatted and quite ugly - is it on the feature list coming up soon? πŸ˜… - or is there a way I can add it myself somewhat easily? - html tables formatting would be great.. πŸ™

    Markdown Preview Enhanced is the old one, and the "Show Preview" is the new one πŸ™‚ Show Preview doesn't have all the features yet which is why the old one is still around, but we're trying to completely replace it.

    I encounter a bug here in
    Dendron Preview
    I write this line in Editor pane
    Copy code
    markdown
    tutorial at [here](https://logseq.github.io/#/page/Publishing%20(Desktop%20App%20Only))
    Then the Preview pane is also displayed tutorial at [here](https://logseq.github.io/#/page/Publishing%20(Desktop%20App%20Only)) instead of the expected tutorial at here I doubt that the 2 parentheses in the url are the cause. Anyone can teach me how to solve this?

    preview needs a md file open to show up. you could argue that we were overzealous on the command context. we’ll roll it back to only require dendron to be active

    Ok, here is an odd one for you. I'm obviously keeping all my notes in Dendron. Over the last week I have needed to cut and paste tables I have in Dendron into Outlook emails. Since Outlook auto word wraps, these tables look very confusing to the recipient. Is there some way to fix a block of text in Outlook so it doesn't auto wrap, or have a Markdown table paste in as formatted Office table?

    Kevin, I recall reading at some point how many notes you have across your vaults, and if I recall the number was about 10,000. You mentioned that at that scale, there was no perceivable performance impact with regards to using the Lookup tool. Is this wisdom still the same that we don't have to be stingy with notes? I'm currently at 1400 across my vaults, and tend towards creating sections in a note, rather than separate notes. I am starting to see the benefits of being more atomic with the scale of notes. Where do you currently stand on this?
  • k

    11/09/2021, 8:15 PM
    no reason to be stingy with notes but no need to atomize until necessary. amoeba pattern works great for this -> https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/e780000d-c784-4945-8e42-35218a3ecf10.html as your notes grow, dendron lets you extract and refactor
  • t

    11/09/2021, 8:21 PM
    I'm familiar with the Amoeba approach, but my concern is that the benefits of the Lookup tool are too much to pass up, which is what we inevitably do when a node of information is just a heading inside a note. Unless I have a consistent approach, how can I know if a piece of information is contained within its own note, or forms part of a bigger note? to be comprehensive in my search, I need to use both the lookup tool and global search
  • k

    kevins8

    11/09/2021, 8:36 PM
    yeah, that’s a limitation at the moment. we have discussed lookup extending to inside of notes so you can find section headers for example meanwhile, you can use the search editor functionality in vscode to find notes inside a specific hierarchy
  • t

    Tychronos

    11/09/2021, 8:42 PM
    Interesting. That leaves a considerable unknown when it comes to deciding on an overall approach towards making notes. Is extending Lookup to scan headings attainable? Is it part of the natural growth path for Dendron? Sometimes it feels odd to create a note with 1 or 2 lines. In cases like these my instinct would always be to combine it in a bigger note, assuming the search functionality was identical in both cases.

    I like this amoeba pattern And @Tychronos question prompts me to ask how do you know the number of notes across dendron?

    if you use
    Show Note Graph
    , its in the information dropdown on the left. otherwise,
    ls -l | wc -l
    inside your vaults πŸ˜…
