[Feature Request] New Command: Select Table about obsidian-editor-shortcuts HOT 6 CLOSED

would less difficult for Obsidian Editor Shortcuts to add this additional feature

Finding the start/end of a word is relatively simple since we only need to search for word boundaries on a single line, whereas finding the start/end of a table would require some additional logic to locate the first and last rows. That logic doesn't exist in this plugin at the moment, so the effort would be roughly similar IMO.

At least I'm happy to have the opportunity to connect with you for the first time and to share with you a new workflow :)

Likewise, I appreciate it!

Hey @FelipeRearden, thanks for the feedback, it means a lot!

Looking at your feature request, I wonder whether it makes more sense for this to be implemented by the Table Editor plugin instead. If it's always necessary to have the table selected before making edits, a nice improvement would be to automatically select the entire table when activating the plugin (or to support edits with the cursor anywhere inside a markdown table).

I 100% understood your comment :)

I thought about this before writing this FR for you ...

In my user limited mind, would less difficult for Obsidian Editor Shortcuts to add this additional feature (I'm assuming that the engine to select a table should be similar to the engine of Select Word and Select Line ) than for Markdown Editor Table to create a new engine for this feature.

If it's always necessary to have the table selected before making edits, a nice improvement would be to automatically select the entire table when activating the plugin (or to support edits with the cursor anywhere inside a markdown table).

That exactly what I thought :)

For this, my idea is to use QuickAdd Macro to stack these two commands into a single hotkey to get the same behavior.

Feel free to close this issue if you think it's is something that you feel that is not a good feature to this amazing plugin.

• If we forget about the MTE plugin, would be a great command to transfer tables inside the note and/or between notes. For academic artcle notes that have a lot tables to manage :)

Thanks for reading this!!!!

Have a great day!!!!

Thanks for considering this in the future and for your technical explanation !!!!!!

I will follow your recommendation and create a new FR at MTE. I update you about it in the future.

Thanks again for you time and I wish you the best :)

Let's keep talking!
