Add colored relationship lines to your files and folders in Obsidian, based on their nesting level. Enable focus mode to highlight active files and their parent folders, and set the relationship lines to be solid, dotted, or dashed.
- Set the colors to relationship lines
- Show the relationshi 8F07 p lines in the editor
- Focus Mode: Folders and files that are not open are dimmed, including the icon in present.
- Set the relation lines to be solid, dotted or dashed.
Focus mode highlights active files and their parent folders, dimming the rest. In the screenshot above I have two files open, other files and folders are dimmed.
- Open Obsidian Settings
- Navigate to Community Plugins and disable Safe Mode
- Click Browse and search for "Rainbow Tree"
- Install the plugin
- Enable the plugin in your Community Plugins list
In the plugin settings, you can:
- Set the color of the relationship lines for 1-5 levels of nesting
- Enable focus mode that highlights active files and their parent folders, dimming the rest
- Set the relationship lines to be solid, dotted, or dashed
