Current Pane Media Gallery Viewer for Obsidian

A powerful and dynamic media gallery plugin for Obsidian. It automatically gathers all images and videos from your currently active markdown document and displays them in a dedicated, highly customizable side pane.

Perfect for visual thinkers, researchers, and anyone who works with media-heavy notes!

✨ Features

  • Automatic Media Extraction: Instantly scans your active note and displays all embedded images and videos.
  • Two-Way Synchronization:
    • Document to Gallery: Move your cursor or click on an image in your note, and the gallery will automatically scroll to and highlight the corresponding media.
    • Gallery to Document: Click on any media in the gallery pane, and your document will automatically scroll to that exact location. It works seamlessly in both Live Preview/Source Mode and Reading Mode.
  • Double-Click to Zoom: Double-click any image in the gallery to open a beautiful, full-screen native zoom modal.
  • Context Menu: Right-click any image in the gallery to access powerful options:
    • Copy to Clipboard: Quickly copy images to your system clipboard.
    • Open in System Explorer: Jump directly to the physical file on your computer.
    • Delete Image: Delete the file from your vault and automatically clean up its markdown references in the active document.
  • Occurrence Cycling: If you use the exact same image multiple times in a document, clicking its thumbnail in the gallery will intelligently cycle through each occurrence in your note.
  • 6 Beautiful Layouts: Choose how you want to view your media:
    • Masonry: A gapless, left-to-right cascading layout.
    • Vertical (1 Column): Large, single-column feed.
    • Vertical (2 Columns): Standard two-column grid.
    • Horizontal (1 Row): A scrollable horizontal filmstrip.
    • Horizontal (2 Rows): A double-row filmstrip.
    • Fit All: Packs all media compactly to fit the pane without scrollbars.
  • Lazy-Rendering Support: Built with robust native DOM handling. Clicking media in the gallery works perfectly even for items buried deep at the bottom of extremely long notes in Reading Mode.
