BUG: Highlight comments keep disappearing #77

Description

@Robubble

I encountered following bug:

When I edit a note with a comment, the comment will disappear in the sidebar panel.
The highlight is still picked up but the comment isn't shown anymore.
It is still shown in the note itself though.
When I enter a new comment, the other one will not be shown in the note, only in the sidebar. Additionally to this, only the old comment (the one that isn't shown in the note) will be exported in the new note.
Once the bug is triggered, new comments will not be registered in the note, nor in the export as note.

I tried:

  • deleting the comment/highlight (didn't help as the data is still saved, I have to delete orphans manually first)
  • creating a new comment (will only be registered in the sidebar)
  • restarting Obsidian

The trigger:

I'm not entirely sure if that's the reason but the bug only happened so far when I was editing text that was before the highlight/comment.
I also work in bullet lists.
If those two have an effect on triggering the bug needs further testing.

As for now I think the problem is related with bullet lists as I also had another problem with them in another note:
I had two bullets. I highlighted a part of the second one and added a comment. Then I highlighted the first one and added a comment.
The comment of the second bullet became part of the first bullet.
