Is there a way to disable hover editor from popping up when used with vertical tabs?

[tbergeron]

Just a quick question: Is there a way to disable hover editor from popping up when used with vertical tabs?

I've toggled Vertical Tabs off in Settings -> Core plugins -> Page preview

I don't see any settings for that in Vertical Tabs' settings neither in Hover editor's settings.

Any idea how? Because right now, I don't even need to hold CMD, I just hover over a tab and it pops up which is not the desired behavior.

Thanks

Hi @tbergeron ! This seems to be a bug. I'll look into it ASAP. Thank you!

@oxdc I just realized, I think I got confused. If I disable/toggle off:

The hover is always on without pressing CMD. I just realized that it seems to be Obsidian's intended behavior. There's no way to fully disable the page preview except when disabling the core plugin entirely. It's either on hover or on CMD+hover. Same applies for the hover editor plugin.

So when I turned that toggle OFF, it started being always on. Now I toggled it back on and it's only when I press CMD.

So I believe I was the one who got confused in the first place. Sorry about that and thanks for the quick reply.

I'll close the issue now.

Thank you for sharing the resolution! I’ll convert this issue to a Q&A in case others encounter the same problem.
