Lazy Cursor - Obsidian Plugin

[!NOTE] You might want to use the Cursor GoAway plugin instead, which does the same and is available in the Obsidian community plugins.

About

This is a tiny plugin for Obsidian that initially hides the cursor when opening a note. The cursor will reappear when you click somewhere in the note. I created this plugin to prevent Obsidian from rendering the first line of a note in raw markdown when using Live Preview.

It basically just runs editor.blur(); when opening a file. This means the cursor might flicker shortly when opening a file.

Installation

The plugin is not yet available through the Obsidian Plugin Browser. Until it is submitted, you can use the BRAT Plugin to install it. Just add https://github.com/TimoBechtel/obsidian-lazy-cursor to your list of beta plugins.
