Obsidian Year in Pixels

A visual tracking plugin for Obsidian. Year in Pixels reads the frontmatter of your daily notes and generates grid and circular charts to visualize your tracked variables throughout the year.

Year in Pixels

Features

  • Chart layouts: View your records as a standard horizontal grid or alternative circular layouts
  • Custom variables tracking: Tracks user-defined properties from your daily notes frontmatter
  • Custom date formats: Supports notes formatted as YYYY-MM-DD, DD-MM-YYYY and other standard layouts in titles or frontmatter
  • Color configuration: Maps frontmatter values to user-defined hex colors
  • Dual view modes: Available as a main workspace tab or a compact sidebar view
  • Interactive interactions: Hover to view the exact date and logged variables, or click to open the corresponding note

How it Works

The plugin looks for notes in a specified target folder (e.g., Journal/2026). It expects the note titles or a date property to contain a valid date according to your chosen format.

To track data, add the variables to your YAML frontmatter:

---
date: 2026-05-14
emotion: joyful
rating: 5
energy: high
---

  • Use the grid icon in the left ribbon to open the main Year in Pixels view
  • Open the Command Palette (Ctrl/Cmd + P) to access:
    • Open Year in Pixels: Opens the main visualization tab
    • Open Year in Pixels (Sidebar): Opens the compact visualization in the right sidebar

Settings

  • Target folder: The folder containing your daily notes or journal entries
  • Date format: The format used in your note titles or frontmatter dates
  • Years: The specific years to visualize
  • Data & examples: Generates sample notes to automatically configure and preview the charts
  • Custom variables: Defines the frontmatter keys to track, their display names, and the specific color mapping for each possible value
