Btw this can now be achieved without modifying a theme using CSS snippets: - In settings under appearance at the end there is a section CSS snippets. - Click the folder icon to open the location in the file system. - Create a new file with .css extension and paste in the same CSS code from the forum thread. - Go back to obsidian settings and click the reload icon. - The .css file you created will be listed under snippets, just press the toggle to enable this snippet and voila the the lines will appear!
thanks for sharing this tip, snippets are great, I made an example of a image gallery in obsidian, using snippets, th-cam.com/video/exbHSSbydKw/w-d-xo.html if anyone wants to see an example of what @frongy said
MAn...I just tried this one..and everything works in the Setting menu but it does not show up on my Obsidian. I am using the Ars Magna skin Could use some help :)
it did not appear for me. Can this be done with default theme? I have the css code with a css extension saved in the snippet folder but nothing appears?
Thank you Man , It was awesome to be able to do this , this is one of the feature in the Notion that i Loved so much . Now i am switching from notion to obsidian
I uploaded the code mentioned... But now I'm struggling how to create this kinda list with 1.1, 1.2. etc, cause my Obsidian doesn't do this automatically. Documetation, here I am!! ;D
In case you are having trouble with this, make sure you press TAB to indent the bullet points when you create them. Spaces don't seem to reveal the lines. Thanks to Kamal for helping me realize this, I didn't made this clear on the video
@@kofm that's interesting, I found that spaces didn't work. Perhaps try reaching out the creator of the prettifier plugin, to see if it's possible to make it compatible.
Hi Santi - - Is there a way to use Templater or some other obsidian plugin, to "prepend" the current note name to the newly created note? So if I'm in a note named "Test_Note_Parent" and I select some text in that note... Say I select the word "Child" and type in the doubles [[]] brackets to create a new note. When I click to add the note, it will create the note with the name as "Test_Note_Parent:Child" Basically creating a new note with the selected text as the Note name, but Prepending or prefixing the current note name to the beginning of the newly created note?
Hey Jeremy, I get you, that's an interesting and useful usecase. unfortunately I don't think there's any way to automatically achieve something like that at the moment. However maybe try asking in the official Obsidian Forums, there are some pretty clever people in there that might have workarounds or ideas. At the moment I can image how it must be a lot of manual work for you to set things up like that. Best of luck, sorry I can't be of more help!
Hey, yeah that is an option in the settings > editor > fold... (there are two options there, one for headings, the other one for bullets, I have them both on) if you want to master the fundamentals check out my online course on obsidian courses.santiyounger.com
awesome thanks for dropping that awesome comment hahaha, yeah my theme is now pulbic, you can search for it in the community themes as "Reverie" by Santi Younger hope you enjoy it!
unfortunately that's a bit more tricky to achieve, I recommend looking for CSS tutorials, my favorite TH-camr for this is called "Dani Krossing" he has great tutorials for CSS, sorry I can't be of more help
Hi Santi, I found this tutorial very useful! I followed your instructions and it works perfectly before. My problem is that it seems like the update of Obsidian v0.13.14 prevent the bullet relation ship lines from showing up in edit mode. I'm wondering if you have this problem and how you solve it. Thanks in advance!
hey, happy to hear that! yeah I've heard people having trouble with this CSS code with the latest updates. I personally highly recommend taking a look at the latest updates of a plugin called "outliner". I've been using outliner as a replacement for this CSS code for a while and I think it's much better hope that helps!

In that version and above you have to enable css snippets first, and then just create small css file which Santi showed in the video. Go to the Settings/Appearance and check CSS snippets section. Click on the folder icon and the snippets directory will be created: .obsidian/snippets (I'm using Linux, path might be slightly different on Windows & Macs).
@brissa buddha hey, it's not needed to use my theme, it should work with most themes, however some themes might have conflicts, if you try it with my theme for testing it should work without any issues.
