Themes #

iA Writer #

The recommended artisticat1/focus-active-sentence plugin blinks when scrolling the page, which I found distracting. Instead, I tried michaellee/stille which turned out to be great.

Unfortunately, the very appealing artisticat1/nl-syntax-highlighting only supports English, which is not my primary writing language in Obsidian.

The file tree is very buggy on my setup.

iB Writer #

Repo: whereiswhere/iB-Writer

Less buggy than iA Writer, but does not respect the accent colour setting.

Some tiny fixes to this theme that I wrote:

* {
  /* iB: hsl(195, ..., ...) */
  --indicator-color: #4480EF;
  --my-accent-color: #D4E2FC;
  --my-accent-color-render: #D4E2FC;
  /* hsl(219, 84%, 85%) #B9CFF9 */
  /* hsl(219, 87%, 91%) #D4E2FC */
}

/* recover setting font size */
.markdown-source-view {
  font-size: unset;
}

body:not(.is-grabbing) .nav-file-title.is-active:hover,
body:not(.is-grabbing) .nav-folder-title.is-active:hover,
.nav-file-title.is-active, .nav-folder-title.is-active {
  color: var(--text-on-accent);
}

.cm-s-obsidian span.cm-hmd-internal-link:hover {
  color: var(--indicator-color, var(--interactive-accent));
}

Minimal #

Repo: kepano/obsidian-minimal

Changed a lot of CSS classes (maybe for good but very confusing when writing snippets). It did not made a huge difference to me compared to default theme with Hider, so in the end I went back to that.

Some styles I wrote to make the right sidebar to have the same background colour as the left sidebar:

.workspace-split.mod-right-split .workspace-tabs {
    --tab-container-background: var(--bg2) !important;
    --background-secondary: var(--bg2) !important;
    --titlebar-background-focused: var(--bg2) !important;
}

.sidebar-toggle-button.mod-right {
    background-color: var(--bg2) !important;
}
