Hi

Are latex macros supported in any way?

Seems like it was added at some point in 2020 https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/commit/cf355c16810cb4f0a5dea57ffdd6a3a01d67d4c8 but it was removed later

I was trying to figure this out too - it doesn't look like they're supported yet according to [this ticket](https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/1535). I found a simple workaround though - if you use vscode's [native markdown viewer](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/markdown#_markdown-preview) instead of the dendron's previewer, then the katex macros listed [here](https://katex.org/docs/supported.html#macros) work out of the box. For example this markdown snippet should render correctly using VSCode's markdown preview:

$$
\def\F{\mathcal{F}}
\gdef\pow#1#2{#1^#2}
$$


$\F$, $\pow{x}{2}$

$$\F$$

$$\pow{x}{2}$$

When configuring custom note traits, is it possible to set name to include a running number from 1? So in this function:

js
    setNameModifier(props) {
      return {
        name: "paper." + "1",
        promptUserForModification: true,
      };
    },

Is there a variable/a way to make it such that every time I create a note it will be

paper.1

,

paper.2

etc (perhaps some way to store a global variable in Dendron that can persist across closing the editor and across machines?)? Thanks in advanced!

Thanks! I give this a try. I tried enhanced markdown preview before but that doesn't seem to do the trick.

Hi guys, Is there a way to group note like this ? I watched it on dendron youtube channel.

I believe this happens automatically when you split the editor into groups via the

View: Split Editor

command

Hey, I’ve a question. How do I make Dendron keybinds specific to when the extension is enabled? I use Jupiter and “ctrl + enter” is a collision between the two. I’d like to make the keybind function when Dendron is disabled (ie when I’m in Jupiter mode)

I need help converting my vault from local to remote. Whenever i try to, it is stuck on "converting vault to remote"

Hi! I'm trying Dendron and I'm loving de concept and implementation! My first question was: Why can't I have Dendron navigation pane in VS Code "detached" from the file explorer, i.e., why do I need to open a second VS code instance when developing on my projects when I could have my notes just there, in every instance of VS Code?

^ I personally use an instance just for dendron, and disable other extensions for this workspace to make it more lightweight. You can also try using VSCodium just for dendron.

is it possible to search multiple keywords in parallel? normally, i have seen at a time there is a provision to enter 1 searchterm only.

Hi. Been using Dendron for over 3 years now but sometimes I like to browse my notes in Obsidian. I wonder if there's a way to unify the markdown syntax between the two. For example, the wikilink in Dendron is such

[[Note Title|this.is.a.note]]

and in Obsidian it's the reverse

[[this.is.a.note|Note Title]]

. My wikilinks are written as Dendron interprets them, but Obisidian thinks there are no notes for those wikilinks.

Same here. Using VSCodium and Dendron gets a specific workspace and instance. This b.t.w. is my general pattern for every (programming) language/technology stack (e.g. Java, TypeScript, Go, PHP).

There are two old issues asking for the standard wiki formatting: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/229 and https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/463

Newbie here. Can someone explain the purpose of having hierarchical file names instead of just normal directories? (ie like in foam) Don’t they both accomplish the same thing, but folders are just easier to work with and more compatible with other tools? or is it more so because hierarchical names are easier to re-factor with?

Here is a thread with links and convo around hierarchical approach that may be helpful: https://discord.com/channels/717965437182410783/1055645595404087431/1055647864241524806

Thank you that is very helpful! I feel like also maybe since I am rather new I will be able to more intuitively understand the differences simply as I grow our my knowledge base

Yeah! Welcome to the community 🙂 As you play around with it and get a feel for things, along with tools like the refactoring you mentioned, you'll get a better idea whether it feels like a good fit for your workflows

Is there any way to customize the formatting that you see in the markdown preview in Dendron?

Yes, see here: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/0fbg5vbv5jzb0623pbi4v3t/#applying-a-custom-theme

Does anyone have an example of visualizing schema graphs that they would be willing to share?

Thanks!

Is the default css theme available anywhere?

Not sure if this has been addressed already, but is it possible to show the 'title' values in VSCode tabs instead of the file names?

Hey, @kzilla, I don't think it's possible right now. There is an similar open issue requesting title values in "open editors" panel which also reflects the file name only (https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/412) and another one asking to add the vault name to the tab, so notes with similar titles can be distinguished between different vaults (https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/1168).

Hey everyone, super open ender markdown question that I feel might resonate with folks here - Im trying to find a good way to make nested tables in markdown in a sane way. The only "vanilla" markdown way I know of is ugly (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43591906/nested-tables-in-markdown)... I was thinking of writing a python script to turn YAML into a nested makdown table, and maybe find a clever way to automatically generate a markdown table in VScode from a yaml input

figured id see if anyone here has tried to do the same thing in the past

Thanks for your response, I went ahead and gave a 👍 on the open feature request. As for the "vault name" request, I can see my vault names next to the file names on the tabs if I select 'medium' for Workbench>Editor: Label Format settings in VSCode.
