Go to Community plugins in Settings, install and enable the PDF++ plugin
Create a new Obsidian note "Test page.md"
While on the "Test page", drop any PDF file, e.g. "observations.pdf" onto the page in "Edit mode". (For example, sample PDF files can be downloaded from here). I downloaded this file which I renamed to "observations.pdf".
Open "observations.pdf" in a new Obsidian tab.
Select any text of the first page and right-click to choose e.g. "Copy link to selection with format Callout"
Return to the "Test page.md" and past the clipboard content. A new markup will appear:
> [!PDF|][[observations.pdf#page=1&selection=10,0,14,20|observations, p.1]]> You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can install it for free here: get.adobe.com/reader
Return to the PDF viewer of "observations. pdf". In the side panel, find the backlinks panel and activate it
By default, the "Show only backlinks in the current page" option button is "ON". Ensure it stays "ON" (blue color of the icon).
By default, the "Collapse results" option button is "OFF" (gray color of the icon). Switch it "ON" (blue color of the icon).
Observe, that when both option buttons "Show only backlinks in the current page" and "Collapse results" are "ON" (blue color of the icons), the list of backlinks is empty (unexpected).
Expected behavior
A list of files with links to the PDF is expected, i.e.:
Linked mentions 2
> Test page 2
Actual behavior
A list of files with links to the PDF is empty, i.e.:
Linked mentions 0 in this page
