Influx mentions visible on hover preview of mentioned link

[bvsbuild]

This plugin is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. It is an excellent solution for roll-up aggregate notes and daily note workflows, so thank you!

Currently, the plug-in results do not display on the hover preview of the linked note. When I hover on a linked and mentioned note, it only displays the content I have typed into that note. It would be so helpful to get a quick glance at the Influx results while hovering on the link. I often just need a quick reference and opening the note is overkill, if the results could be displayed in the preview. Is there any hope for a fix or implementation of this functionality?

@bvsbuild, just a heads-up, I have the same request, and I was able to achieve this with the "Hover Editor" plugin.

It has a setting to always open notes in hovers in editing mode, which shows the Influx section.

If you don't want all the notes to be opened in editor mode, but only some of them, you can also use the "Force note view mode" plugin to mark any note that you want to open in "edit mode" by default.

I use a combination of these 2 plugins, it works very well for my workflow.

@cakechaser - Wow. Incredibly helpful. This is 100% what I needed and solves a huge need in my workflow. Hopefully this functionality can eventually be integrated, but in the meantime this is terrific. Thank you so much!

While I agree this would be a convenient feature for quick glancing, I have concerns regarding performance, especially for notes with a high volume of backlinks.

Rendering the full Influx list inside a hover preview could significantly slow down the UI or cause lag when hovering over "heavy" notes.

Therefore, I strongly suggest implementing this as an optional toggle in the settings (e.g., "Show Influx in hover preview"), rather than a universal default behavior. This way, users with large vaults or older hardware can keep it disabled to maintain performance.
