Once again: thank you for the excellent work you're doing with this plugin. I'm using it daily at work and SO impressed by how development is going. The ability to choose where the ink files go is exactly what I've wanted. Great stuff!
BTW, I actually installed Ubuntu on my Surface yesterday and also installed Obsidian. Ink works just fine! It breathes new life into the tablet. Great - and thank you!
Greate plugin! Unfortunately my Boox Nova3 Coloar seems to be way too slow to handle a smooth writing experience within Obsidian... Maybe it's time for an update, but I guess, even the newer devices will struggle...
Yes. Don’t update because of that. Boox are e-ink screens and e-ink screens are slow. It can’t be fixed on e-ink screens through updating or through the plug-in at the moment unfortunately.
@DesignDebtClub don't think the problem is the eink, internal apps can provide greater writing performance. I would guess the problem is processing power. Maybe someone with a Boox Tab Ultra or Note Air3 could test my hypothesis.
@HelloLudger That’s true, but it’s specific to e-ink. Apps need to integrate certain low latency code for it to work separate to the normal screen refresh rate. If your inbuilt apps are still doing this well, then it’s got nothing to do with the processing power, it’s just because non-inbuilt apps (like Obsidian), don’t implement that low latency pen input.
Just discovered this now. This is a kickass solution! :) Is this uniquely for tablets though? Or even more specifically, Apple tablets? I'm on a touchscreen Samsung Galaxy Book 3 360 foldable laptop with the simpler kind of S-Pen (Windows 11 and Pop OS linux). It's otherwise pretty awesome for handwriting. But with Ink I only get shown the code section seen in the video (Currently on Win 11) -- it never turns into a field where I could draw into. :) ```handwritten-ink { "versionAtEmbed": "0.2.6", "filepath": "Ink/Writing/2024.8.14 - 0.11am.writing" } ```
That’s odd. It should work. Are you opening someone else’s file or is that after inning insert handwriting? Double check your cursor isn’t within that area as it will show the code if that’s the case. Also, maybe try restarting obsidian incase the plug-in hasn’t fully registered yet?
@@DesignDebtClub Hi. Just came back to edit my answer. Turns out, a restart of the program was needed. But you had already beat me to it. :) Still, maybe useful information for the future. Excited how this is going to evolve! If it's somehow useful, I'm happy to share details on the current experience on a touchscreen+pen laptop in some channel more apprproate than this.
