Description
Category: Note Enhancements

The Hover Reveal plugin enhances the interactivity of your Obsidian notes by allowing you to display tooltip-style hidden content when hovering over marked text. By using a simple inline syntax, you can define visible text that, when hovered, reveals additional information in a styled popup. This is especially useful for annotations, definitions, or adding extra context without cluttering the main content. The plugin supports live preview mode and automatically adapts to your current Obsidian theme. Users can fine-tune the appearance of tooltips through settings that control text color, background, borders, and bolded visible text, using color pickers or CSS variables.

    The idea of the plugin is great. As I use the share note plugin, I share my notes with other people frequently, and having definitions over complex terms is great as a refresher. The only problem is it frequently fails in reading mode, causing a line break instead of showing the hover reveal. If this could be fixed, this plugin would be awesome.
