feat(settings): open a choice's settings as a page of the settings window - #2141
Conversation
…ndow A choice's builder (Template, Capture, Macro, folder) opened from the gear in Settings → QuickAdd is now a page of the settings window, like the AI Assistant's settings, instead of a dialog stacked over it. Obsidian draws the title bar and back button (the header on a phone), and Esc goes back. - Leaving the page saves it (back, Esc, closing settings, switching tabs), through the same three-way merge as before, so changes synced from another device while it is open are kept, and a choice deleted elsewhere is not brought back. - A macro's Then/Else branches and a Choice step's Configure open as pages over the macro; back returns to it. - A Name field at the top renames the choice and retitles the page. The sections are Obsidian setting groups. The Done footer is gone. - Builder rows are focusable like Obsidian's, and a full-width field is part of its row, so Tab follows the settings window's order. - On a phone the focused field stays above the keyboard, and the header stays solid over a builder page. - When the app goes to the background, open builder pages save in place. - Quitting now flushes the pending settings write, which a setting changed in the last second before quit used to lose.

No new attacker-facing interface was established. Risk remains low because editor cleanup reaches the whole settings-page stack, and host compatibility and interrupted-save behavior are not fully established. Retained concerns

…e background A builder page saves in place when the app goes to the background, with its form still mounted, so a folder typed into Folder path but not added was left out of that save (#1993 covered only leaving the page). The Template form now hands the builder a function that adds it, which runs before every save.
…below On a phone the on-screen keyboard does not always shrink the visual viewport (Android leaves it full height), so a suggestion list for a field just above the keyboard, such as the macro builder's script field, opened under it. The list now treats the screen above `--keyboard-height` as the visible area, as Obsidian's own layout does.

A list opened as its field took focus was placed before the keyboard came up, and the keyboard does not always resize or scroll anything, so the list stayed under it. An open list now re-places itself on keyboardDidShow.
Opening the iOS app switcher makes Obsidian inactive without hiding the page, so no visibilitychange fires, and force-quitting from there lost an open builder page's edits. Obsidian reports the inactive app as a window blur and saves its own notes then; open builder pages now save in place on it too.
A choice's settings (the Template, Capture, Macro and folder builders, opened with the gear on a choice in Settings → QuickAdd) now open as a page of the settings window, the way the AI Assistant's settings do, instead of a dialog stacked on top of it. On a phone the stacked dialog was awkward; a page fills the settings sheet, uses its header and back button, and goes back to the QuickAdd tab.
Before → after (Obsidian 1.13.7, desktop 1024×800; phone is
dev:mobileat 390×844):Template, light

Macro, dark

Conditional branch, light: before, a Save/Cancel dialog over the macro dialog; after, a page over the macro page

Phone: Template (light) and Macro (dark), before → after

Phone pages: Capture, the nested Then page, Macro, and the focused script field above the on-screen keyboard (shaded) under a solid header

More: Template dark, Macro light, branch dark, Capture and folder pages
How it works
SettingPagepushed onto Obsidian's settings page stack (app.setting.openPage, the call Obsidian makes for its own page entries; internal, like thenavigateToSearchResultthe AI Assistant page already uses). Obsidian draws the title bar and back button (the header on a phone); Esc goes back, as on any settings page.commandshas no read-accessor guard, so a malformed one is unrecoverable through the UI #1593).Phone
100vh - var(--keyboard-height), as Obsidian's own layout does, and an open list re-places itself onkeyboardDidShow.tabindex="-1"), and a full-width field (Capture format, File name, ...) is part of its row, so Tab goes row → field → next row.Saving when the app goes away
quitevent: it leaves open builder pages and flushes the pending write, and Obsidian waits for it.app:reload) with unsaved builder edits loses them, as the dialog did.Worth a close look
app.setting.openPage(open),pageStackandclearPageStack(save on quit and in the background), andupdatePageTitle(rename), alongside thenavigateToSearchResult/closePagethe AI pages already use. None are public through obsidian-api 1.14.4; the native specs exercise each one, so a rename shows up there.BuilderPage.hide()unmounts the form before it reads the result, because a form commits pending input as it unmounts (a folder typed without Add, Template builder drops a folder typed without clicking Add #1993).SettingItem.svelterows now carrytabindex="-1"and can hold a full-width body.LabeledFieldand the Template folder list use it, which drops QuickAdd's own divider CSS for those fields.Release notes
Lands before 2.30.0; docs say "QuickAdd 2.30.0 or later" / "Before QuickAdd 2.30.0". No settings migration. The builder forms are unchanged apart from the Name field and section cards.
