The New Note New Window plugin for Obsidian enhances the note-taking experience by allowing users to create new notes in a floating window. This plugin provides flexibility with settings to control whether new notes open in the same window or a new one. It also offers the option to create notes in the default folder or specify a custom folder. Users can easily create new notes by running the designated command or by assigning a custom shortcut.
The Calculite plugin adds a lightweight calculator directly into your workspace for quick math operations like adding shopping lists, calculating averages, or working out reps. It supports basic arithmetic and remembers the current equation even if you close and reopen Obsidian. You can access it through a ribbon icon, command palette, sidebar toggle, or as a floating window on desktop that works system-wide. Hotkeys are mapped to match Windows and macOS calculators, offering a familiar experience.
The Floating Notes plugin opens a separate floating editor window that can be shown or hidden on demand for quick note capture. It keeps the popout state intact, can stay above other apps and supports three ways to choose what appears in the window: the current note, one fixed note or a new timestamped note each time. The plugin also exposes more than one trigger path. You can run it from an in app command, an obsidian URI or a local HTTP endpoint, which makes external launchers and shell based shortcuts possible. It is built for desktop use.
