    Hi, I'm the author of PDF++. Thanks a lot for sharing this great tutorial, which is comprehensive and concise at the same time!
    Let me comment on a few things:
    - You can add highlight colors from the "+" button right next to the "Highlight colors" setting.
    - The auto-paste command is planned to be removed in the near future, so please use the command "Copy link to selection or annotation" with the auto-paste toggle (located in the left ribbon menu) turned on.
    - Context menus can be screen-captured by going to Settings > Appearance > Advanced and disabling the "Native menus" option.
    I will take a look at the Hover Editor issue. Thanks for bringing my attention to it.
    Thanks again for your great job!

      The *only* thing left for this plugin to do that it seems *no one can do* is allow obsidian to know when the *actual* page one is in a large textbook / reference book so that page numbers are accurate; even if you could manually (a) tell obsidian where page 1 of a textbook is and (b) tell obsidian that a journal article starts at page 233 it would be great. Zotero sort of does it but never gets it right and wont transfer those details to obsidian no matter how hard I try. Your plugin helps me complete my Masters at university

      @@CaptZenPetabyte In fact, you can already do it with PDF++ (if I understand you correctly)! Enable PDF editing and run the command "Edit page labels". See also the documentation page for page labels.

    Yet again you bring us another great plugin Prakash. You are the best on UA-cam at finding and presenting really useful plugins that make using Obsidian better and better. This one is a real game changer for many I am sure. I did have to play this video on 0.75 speed, as you did seem to rush through it :-). I can't wait to try this out. Thank you.

    I have faced issues in Obsidian where it gets stuck when opening multiple large books (PDF). Considering Obsidian was not natively built to process PDFs, I switched to Zotero. Does the PDF++ plugin improve performance of Obsidian in handling PDFs?

    • @RujioWR

      you have to delete the note which is copied to your markdown file. Highlights only appear if they are linked somewhere in your reference note. Therefore highlights also disapear if you delete the link reference.

    Hey, in working with PDFs on Obsidian, I have noticed that the application crashes when opening multiple large PDFs (>1000 pages). On the Obsidian community page and Reddit, people recommend using another app (Zotero) since Obsidian is not a proper PDF engine. Will this plugin or any other plugin help with that issue in Obsidian?

    I just installed the plugin and I think it's very bad that you have to copy every links individually. For me this is not usable it should be like this that the righthand panel should update All highlights without interrupting your work flow. Also I didn't like that you have to press an extra button or even two buttons to highlight a section it should be just left click and it should highlight.
