  • What would be the downsides of extending the image syntax ![]() to tables?

    You could do this with a pandoc filter. That's probably more flexible than a pandoc built-in. You can easily adapt a filter to various situations, file types, and so on. After a very limited search on the internet, I do find quite some filters that convert csv formatted data in code blocks to tables. For example, https://github.com/mb21/pandoc-placetable. I'm sure there are also filters out there that take a pandoc link to a CSV file and convert it to a table. If not, they're not difficult to write either, and then you can get exactly what you want.

  • Latex-like Figures and Section Referencing in Obsidian
    1 project | /r/ObsidianMD | 26 Jan 2023
    Hi everyone, I've recently been working on my dissertation and found it a bit hard to find any resources on how to reference image and sections in markdown just like in LaTeX. On Discord I didn't seem to get any replies and in the forum I could only find things like using HTML blocks. Well, I've found a way to do this, similar to how citations work using the pandoc-crossref filter (https://github.com/lierdakil/pandoc-crossref). Essentially it works like this:```![your nice caption](your_img_path.png){#fig:your_fig_name}```And in-text, reference the figure with: @fig:your_fig_name . The same can be done with sections.If anyone needs a step-by-step guide, I've updated my article on using Obsidian for Academic Writing: https://betterhumans.pub/obsidian-tutorial-for-academic-writing-87b038060522
