There's a VSCode keyboard shortcut to trigger autocomplete. I think it's control+space by default. If you have something autocomplete-able selected, it should pop up when you hit that key

Hmm, I tried that but it does not work. I guess I have to figure out why, but it's good to know that that is supposed to work!

Yup, please do send a bug report if it seems broken!

If you often find yourself typing something and then realize you want that to be an alias of a wikilink, you can do this: Set

commands.insertNoteLink.aliasMode

to

selection

in

dendron.yml

...
commands:
  insertNoteLink:
    aliasMode: "selection"
...

or Create a custom keybinding for insert note link with

aliasMode: selection

as argument:

/* in keybindings.json.
* Use `Preference: Open Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON)` to open.
*/
[
  ...
  {
    "key": "{desired keybinding}",
    "command": "dendron.insertNoteLink",
    "args": {
      "aliasMode": "selection" // choose one from the list
    }
  },
  ...
]

Then you can select some text in the editor and run

Dendron: Insert Note Link

to use the selection as an alias to a wikilink you choose to insert

Or you can choose any of the alias modes listed here: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/eea2b078-1acc-4071-a14e-18299fc28f47/#insert-note-link

Nice, thanks! I'll try to use that in the future!

Suggestion box started working again after I restarted VSCode. Was working in other other workspaces (not dendron), so I'm thinking something happens when Dendron has been running for a while.

Huh that's weird, please do send a bug report if it happens again then. Especially if you can attach a diagnostic report (

Dendron:Dev: Diagnostic Report

command), that would be very helpful to figure out what's wrong.

how do i use dndron with sequence diagrams

graph TD; A-->B; A-->C; B-->D; C-->D;

i'm trying to just put this in a note and its not showing in preview

do i need to wrap it in something?

using mermaid syntax

oh nvm i think i got it

sorry duck debugging here

for others

```mermaid
graph TD;
    A-->B;
    A-->C;
    B-->D;
    C-->D;

```

Hey! Is there an option I'm missing that would allow me to retain the name I configure for a node upon moving it? Using Zettelkasten titles for some things and find that I lose a long sequence if the file title is a slugged version

Neat

when you say moving it, do you mean importing to dendron or something else?

Moving or renaming the note. For instance, if I have a note where the title differs from the page name, any modification to the file results in the page title metadata being changed. I can see how that'd be an awesome default behavior, but there are scenarios where I'd like to freeze it at its current value so it doesn't get modified if I need to change the slug or if I want to reorder the page within Dendron.

got it. the behavior is to change the title if its not different from the filename but if you have a custom title, dendron should leave it alone (even when performing a rename - if not, then thats a bug) as for keeping name constant in all cases, if you submit a feature, we can track it on the roadmap 🙂 https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/new?assignees=&labels=&template=feature_request.md&title=

Thanks very much!

in your DM. still not working. manual git operations work ok...

Hello, I tried to change the font and word size in the dendron markdown preview. Is there any document talk about this? It seems like we can customize by Dendron Markdown Preview Enhanced's css setting before, but this extension is deprecated.

There's currently no way to customize the theme used in the preview. There's an issue tracking interest in this here: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/1171

Thanks~I see. look forward to this 😀

im writing a presentation in dendron. does the markdown preview support anything like slides?

You can use

vscode-reveal

to do it. It's in the awesome-dendron list: https://github.com/dendronhq/awesome-dendron/#markdown-enhancers

vscode-reveal

is SUPERCOOL. I had to write a good deal of HTML to get img's to line up correctly, but one you get that dialed, presentations are quick to create AND beautiful

Hi everyone, Dendron no longer uses Markdown Preview Enhanced right? I miss some features of MPE
