Wheel Picker -- Obsidian Plugin

What is it?

Wheel Picker is an obsidian plugin to help visualize and select from an item from a list in a fun way. It is intended to be used in 'View' mode, but works just fine in 'Edit' mode.

How do I use it?

Live Demo

Sample Wheel Picker codeblock

```wp
-What should I eat for dinner?-
Sushi
Burger
Pizza
Tacos
```

How do I create my own wheel?

1. Empty Codeblock

To create a codeblock, create a triplet of the ` character. On the next line, do the same. You should now see an empty codeblock.

```
```

2. Connect with Wheel Picker

At the end of the first triplet, add wp. This lets the plugin know that it's is going to read this codeblock.

```wp
```

3. Add a Title

At the end of the first row, hit enter to make a new line. Write a double hyphen (aka minus sign or dash) --. Within this double hyphen create a title.

```wp
-The colors of the rainbow-
```

4. Add some data

This is where you will be adding actual data to the wheel itself. Every row will indicate a new slice on the wheel. Let's add 3 new rows for the first three colors of the rainbow.

```wp
-The colors of the rainbow-
Red
Orange
Yellow
```

5. Spin the wheel

The wheel now has all the data needed to be displayed properly. It should look like this:

To spin it, tap/click the central button saying "Spin!" The wheel will now spin, and select an element at random from the wheel.

FAQ

Q: My wheel isn't displaying anything!

A: While a wheel does not need a title, it must have at least 2 rows of data. Make sure that you are putting each row of data onto its own line within the codeblock. See the above example for clarity.

Q: My wheel doesn't look good! >:( Can I change it?!

A: Absolutely! Locate the plugin specific settings found within Obsidian. Then you can change just about any cosmetic feature including colors, animation length, wheel size, and more! I encourage you to customize to your hearts content.
