Markdown syntax not captured in "Select word or next occurrence"

[danyim]

Hello, thanks for developing this plugin first of all!
Version: v1.10.0

I tend to use the "Select word or next occurrence" feature often and found that there's a bug when attempting to select Markdown formatting artifacts in Live Preview & Source mode.

To reproduce:

### Test 1
### Test 2
### Test 3

Selecting just the ### and invoking "Select word or next occurrence" should select the next instance of ### into the selection, but it does nothing. I was also able to repro using lists as well, searching for - .

The bug might be in findNextMatchPosition @ https://github.com/timhor/obsidian-editor-shortcuts/blob/master/src/actions.ts#L210

May be related to #35

Interesting, I can reproduce the H3 example you provided in Live Preview, but not in Source mode.

Lists also work as expected in both modes for me.

I'll look into the Live Preview issue; in the meantime, could you please double check the Source mode and list scenarios in a new vault with only Code Editor Shortcuts enabled?

[danyim]

Hmm, I tested Source mode using a new vault with just a theme and only your plugin enabled. Source mode seems to work but live preview breaks as you saw before.

Here's an example of the function breaking in Live Preview:

And here's an example of the list bullets breaking in LP:

Ah I see, so it was list characters before checkboxes. Presumably anything else that gets automatically hidden by Live Preview would have this bug too.

Thanks, will investigate! 👍

It looks like this is a bug on Obsidian's end – I made a minimal reproducible example and submitted a bug report to them here.

Same issue with backtick, where behavior is very erratic (sometimes adds caret but doesn't highlight actual backtick, sometimes skips a few...)

However, searching for - [ ] works well, so at least I can look for all tasks left to do.
