Description
Category: Customization & UI

The Checkbox Style Menu plugin introduces a long-press menu that lets you switch between a wide range of checkbox styles without breaking your writing flow. It supports all styles provided by the Minimal and Things themes, and you can curate exactly which ones appear in the menu. On desktop and mobile, the interaction feels natural, with touch friendly behaviour and optional haptic feedback. The menu adapts to your active theme, ensuring visual consistency, and works only in live preview to maintain accurate rendering. Timing for long-press gestures can be tuned separately for each platform, giving you control over how quickly the menu appears.
