Support inline footnotes in full-screen table view

[vishwa-a1]

What problem does this solve?

When I’m using Lookout in Obsidian with tables, inline footnotes work as expected in the normal view.

However, when I expand a table to full screen, inline footnotes are no longer supported or visible. For example, a cell containing something like:

Some text ^[inline footnote text]

renders correctly in the regular note, but in the full-screen table view the inline footnote doesn’t appear (or loses its footnote behavior).

This makes it difficult to use Lookout for survey-style or data-heavy notes where I rely on inline footnotes to add clarifications, explanations, or citations inside table cells without cluttering the main content. I have to choose between using full-screen tables (better for reading/editing) and keeping my inline footnotes (better for context).

Proposed solution

It would be helpful if the full-screen table view handled inline footnotes in the same way as the normal note view.

Concretely:

• When a cell contains inline footnotes using the standard Obsidian/Markdown syntax (e.g. ^[inline note]), the full-screen table view should still render them as footnotes rather than plain text.
• Ideally, the behavior and visual appearance of inline footnotes in full-screen mode should match how they behave in the non–full-screen note view, so users get a consistent experience regardless of whether they are editing a table in place or in the expanded view.

Thank you

Alternatives considered

• Using regular (bottom-of-note) footnotes instead of inline ones, but this is less convenient when working inside tables and breaks the flow of survey-style instruments.
• Adding separate columns or extra rows for explanations, which clutters the table and makes it harder to read.
• Avoiding the full-screen table view, but that makes it harder to work with larger or more complex tables.
