to force a note (dashboard) as “Reading view” (called preview in the plug-in)， and set “Reading view” as default for individual pages (e.g. Dashboards) using the Community Plug-in “Force note view mode by front matter.” After loading the “Force note view” plug-in， I think that @TfTHacker is illustrating that their preference is to set “Default new pane view” to “Reading view” (so there’s an additional step of toggle to “Editing view” before making changes). Users can have the global Default set to Editing， place a snippet in the front matter of the desired note: ---obsidianUIMode: preview--- or for “Editing view” use: ---obsidianUIMode: source--- — Default Settings image 1573×381 64.5 KB — Force note view mode by front matter. image 1178×933 121 KB ，。
