Obsidian Progress Clocks

Progress clocks, counters, and stopwatches for Obsidian.md.

Usage

Use the Progress Clocks: Open Sidebar View to open the progress clocks panel.

By default, the panel is empty; use the "Add Section" button to create a new grouping of progress clocks (and other trackers), then use the buttons at the bottom of the panel to add clocks, counters, and stopwatches to the section (see below for explanations of each kind of tracker).

Types of Trackers

Progress Clock

Progress clocks are pie-chart-style counters with a configurable number of segments, useful for tracking progress/steps. They were introduced in the Blades in the Dark RPG by John Harper.

When you add a new clock, enter how many segments you want it to have. You can add & remove segments later on the fly, as well as incrementing the current count (i.e. how many segments are filled), using the buttons below each clock (or by ctrl/cmd-clicking on the clock itself).

Counter

A number (defaulting to zero) with increment/decrement buttons next to it. You can also click on the current value to enter an exact number, or enter +/- in order to add/subtract from the current value.

Stopwatch

Keeps track of time (in seconds by default; click the /1000 button to toggle between seconds and milliseconds). The other buttons under the stopwatch can be used to pause/resume the stopwatch, reset it (to 0:00), or record a lap time (which will show up in a list under the stopwatch).

Inline Usage

You can also use inline clocks and counters; use `clock 2 / 4` to get a 4-segment clock with 2 segments filled in, or `counter 42` to get a counter initially set to 42.

While inline clocks and counters will render in "view" mode, interacting with them won't alter the markdown source. In edit mode with live preview enabled, the clocks and counters will render, and interacting with them will update the underlying markdown.
