Templater Hides Properties on Obsidian 1.5.0 about templater HOT 9 CLOSED

Should be resolved in 1.18.2!

Thanks, I'll add some tests so I don't accidentally break this again in the future.

Try pressing enter after inserting. I have line numbers enabled, and when I tested this behavior, I could see the line number change from line 1 to line 5, even though the cursor didn't move further down. If I press enter, the properties appear, without having to reopen. This might hold some clues as to how this can be resolved.

I have one template where I'm getting similar results (live preview appears to not be refreshed/is not in sync with source mode unless you insert a newline after applying the template) but inconsistently 🤨 ...

I mean, using 2 different templates doing the same thing (erasing completely the content of a note, Properties included) relying on 2 different Obsidian API methods, I get 2 different results:

The first one relies on app.workspace.activeEditor.editor ... and for that one, I can also see the template working as expected, underneath, as like in FeralFlora's screen recording, the line number is refreshed (going from the initial line number 12 to 1) but then I need to add a newline to effectively have live preview displaying the same result as in Source mode.

Here's a screen-recording illustrating that 😇 : Left side is the Testing note opened in Source and the right side is LP 😊 .

On the other hand, a template relying on app.vault.process ... doesn't display such behavior 🤷‍♀️ ... I.e.: no newline needed and both source and LP are in sync (displaying the same content) ...

I'm just mentioning this in case it could help 😇 ... as in both cases, 99% of the template uses Obsidian API only and I just thought this could potentially give some hint as to where the issue might be 😊 ...

I am experiencing the same thing on some of my templates but I noticed the templates that are working make use of the tp.file.cursor, tp.file.move, or custom scripts. Attached is a video that shows how adding tp.file.cursor will trigger the properties to be shown.

I believe this has been fixed again in 2.1.4

tp.file.cursor

Can confirm for that one at least 😊 ...

I used a template adding properties to a note with a tp.file.cursor() somewhere in it and didn't encountered the issue 🤷‍♀️ ...
I mean, there didn't seem to have any delay between Source/Live Preview, everything was rendered at once and my cursor was placed where wanted...

I can only guess that tp.file.cursor() somewhat replace manually adding a newline (while setting the focus on the specific note in Live Preview) ?

With Templater 2.1.3 to avoid this behavior I needed to include this cursor command (as above) and enable option "Automatic jump to cursor".

As @SedesGobhani said, the problem is back in version 2.1.3.
