Latest Version

2.2.0
18 days ago

Changelog

Mobile fix: the folder legend no longer stacks into a full-screen wall of pills on narrow screens — it's hidden by default there, with a new toolbar 'Legend' button to bring it back as a scrollable overlay when you want it.

Black Hole Graph

Turns your Obsidian graph view into a black hole. Every top-level folder becomes an orbit in the accretion disc; every note becomes a star in that orbit. Notes that link to each other are pulled visually closer within the disc.

Pan and zoom the scene, click a folder's orbit to focus on it, and click any star to open its note.

Looks

The plugin ships with eight visual modes you can switch between from the toolbar, each restyling the same underlying data:

Gargantua

The warped, lensed ring look of the black hole from Interstellar.

Gargantua mode

Quasar

A bright, energetic core with jets.

Quasar mode

Interstellar

A softer, more naturalistic version of Gargantua.

Interstellar mode

Polarized

A high-contrast, sharply banded disc.

Polarized mode

Maelstrom

A swirling, turbulent disc with heavy motion.

Maelstrom mode

Galaxy

A spiral-armed galaxy instead of a single hole.

Galaxy mode

Eclipse

A silvery, backlit ring.

Eclipse mode

Binary

Two black holes orbiting each other.

Binary mode
