obsidian-key-promoter's Issues

Triggers on note titled "Search"

To reproduce:

1. Create note with title "Search"
2. Click on it in the file list
3. get notifcation about hotkeys for file search

does not capture all buttons

Switch between edit and preview

• Hotkey: Toggle edit/preview
• Label: Preview or Edit

Buttons that don't have an aria label

• split vertically/horizontally

Triggers when click on text with "commandlike" content

If i click on text inside note with words like "links", "template", "backlinks" it triggers.

Example:

# MyNote

template
## Links:

## Backlinks:

When i click on template, Links or Backlinks it triggers

FR: Don't show more than a few keys?

I don't know if I phrased this right, but when I open settings I get something like this:

I do want to be told when there is no hotkey but I don't need to get a trillion at once when settings is opened :(

FR: if key bind not set, notification may redirect to set this key bind

I would love to see that if I use mouse for action what does not have key bind yet, then I see notification like below what after click redirect me to setting this key bind.

BTW. great work, I love your plugin <3

FR: Add ability to cancel/filter some commands

For some reason key promoter triggers a reminder for extract note content when I just click the text area the vault—would be great to filter for this

Bug: After latest update crash my templater hotkey event

How I'm using templater:
I have template which wrap my text into tag with tp.file.selection() and tp.file.cursor(0).
This template assigned to the hotkey through native templater settings.

After update of key-promoter I faced with issue:
when I select text and use hotkey it broke my line and sent error to the console:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefinedUncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefined

t.onTrigger @ app.js:1
t.handleKey @ app.js:1
t.onKeyEvent @ app.js:1

After Disabling key-promoter or with using command through command pallete all is working good.

Statistics

• count the number of missed hotkey hits
• (count the number of successful hotkey hits)

Keep notifications open when hovering

Hi, I have a quick feature request: keep the popup notifications open longer than the allotted time when we hover the mouse on them.

Side note: is there a hotkey to enable/disable key promoter?

triggers on some buttons that don't have hotkeys

Settings -> Editor triggers focus on editor

Feature Request: Print all Hotkeys to File

Same as pjeby/hotkey-helper#1 — I would like to print all the hotkeys to a file so I can make an anki deck. a different sort of promotion but thought i'd ask :) feel free to close if out of scope
