Short callouts are useful for brief lines of information that should appear close to the preceding paragraph.
Download the short-callout.css snippet and save it to .obsidian/snippets/ in your vault. Activate the snippet under Settings > Appearance > CSS Snippets.
Short callouts follow the normal syntax for callouts and are characterized by the fact that their type identifier ends with a colon (:).
I like to use them for source references.

Some useful default types are already predefined:

In order to customize icons, colors and type identifiers just edit the snippet or - even simpler - use the awesome Callout Manager plugin.
As they are normal callouts, they can also be folded using the + - syntax.
