Minimal 7.0

It :has() been a while

This update is focused on a ground-up rewrite of the Line width and Block width features. It requires Obsidian installer v1.1.9+ (December 2022). The Contextual Typography plugin is no longer needed and I strongly recommend uninstalling it.

Hopefully you will not notice anything different. Everything should pretty much look and work the same as before, but the theme should have a better first-run experience for most users when Minimal is used without any plugins.

Since this is a significant rewrite, I am sure I missed edge cases related to line widths and cards in certain contexts. Please report bugs in Issues.

      • Overflow — long tables overflow the line width and scroll inside the pane
      • Fill — all tables fill the line width, long tables overflow the line width and scroll inside the pane
    • Row lines has been removed as they are now on by default, use row-lines-off to disable on a per file basis
  • Text
    • Heading spacing defines the space between paragraphs and headings in reading mode (Obsidian 1.3.7+)

In the weeds

The goal of this rewrite is to simplify width calculations to make the code more maintainable and less brittle to new content types offered by plugins. The minimum Obsidian app installer version has been bumped to v1.1.9 built with Electron v21 which includes CSS support for :has(). Previously, block widths relied on the Contextual Typography plugin to detect the content type.

This update should improve compatibility with community snippets such as modular layout, and also fixes a variety of bugs that were a side-effect of the previous code.
