Pre-formatting Wrap and Cursor Movement with "CTRL + < >"

Features & ideas
1

I’m sure there are a handful of users that regularly use(d) VS Code for markdown note-taking.

The VS Code Extension Markdown All-In-One has plenty of useful shortcuts. Most of these features are on Inkdrop, but are missing a few:

  • CTRL + < > after the bolding/underline/italics to move the cursor outside the delimited string.
  • Highlighting text and entering ` to format the string to pre-formatting.

Hi texposure,

Thank you for the suggestions.

You can map a shortcut key to core:insert-code-block as you like.
But mapping it with ``` will cause that you can’t input inline code blocks.
Please use other keys.
See the docs for detail:

Maybe it’s equivalent to running editor:go-group-right / editor:go-group-left twice?

map a shortcut key to core:insert-code-block

It doesn’t quite format the text, it instead replaces the entire highlighted text with an empty code block.

Maybe it’s equivalent to running editor:go-group-right / editor:go-group-left

The functionality is close, but it’s quite a keystroke-stretch for power users. I’ve attached an example

markdown-bold-shortcut

hm? The command does not replace highlighted text with an empty code block but just encloses text with ```.

In your example, you can just type Cmd-Right to put a “.” on the end of line. So you can map ctrl-> to editor:go-line-end.
