Features

  • Floating selection toolbar — pops up above your selection the moment you highlight text
  • Dock mode — pin the toolbar to the bottom of the screen as a persistent pill
  • Pomodoro HUD — includes a focus timer in the status bar or dock HUD, depending on the current mode
  • Configurable pomodoro lengths — set custom work and break minutes in plugin settings
  • Session and file timers — track total session time and time spent on the current note
  • Custom button order — drag to reorder toolbar buttons in settings or long-press in the toolbar
  • Smart URL detection — when inserting a link, optionally use a detected URL from the clipboard
  • Toggle formatting — clicking a format button a second time removes the formatting
  • Keyboard accessible — navigate with Tab / Shift+Tab, activate with Enter or Space, dismiss with Escape
  • Theme compatible — uses Obsidian CSS variables throughout, works with any community theme

Actions

Settings

Pomodoro

Set custom work and break durations in Settings → Floaty Toolbar. The same values are used by both the status bar HUD and the dock HUD, so they always stay in sync.

Dock mode

Pins the toolbar to the bottom centre of the screen. Toggle between modes using the pin icon inside the toolbar — no restart needed.

Toolbar button order

Reorder toolbar buttons by dragging them in settings. You can also long-press a toolbar button and drag it directly inside the toolbar.

Smart URL detection

When enabled, the link action can automatically use a URL detected from your clipboard.
