How feasible would it be to implement a breadcrumb indicator which would show where exactly the current note is located?
If you search for a string and locate one or more notes there is no way to tell which notebook(s) those notes belong to.
I see several ways in which this might be solved (they are not mutually exclusive):
-
An actual breadcrumb on the UI displaying all the parent notebooks with clickable notebook names.
-
The application title bar — currently this only displays Joplin and does not serve for anything useful. This could be expanded to something like Joplin — NotebookA > Notebook2 > NoteTitle. (It might be a good idea to also add some other info in the title, for example the sync status, but that’s another topic.)
-
A right-click context menu for the note which would reveal the parent notebook(s), i.e. Reveal in navigation.
I would say Reveal In Navigation is a good idea, Would some PR on this be acceptable? @laurent
Greetings.
+1 to breadcrumbs, where you can link to any location down the chain.
root > programming > python > opencv
and/or
Is it possible to scroll note tree to section that contains found note.
Logic:
- I search note. For example "tensorflow".
- Found it, there is a button, that allows me to go to note, like "In: python".
- I click button, I land where note is, but I still need to scroll tree to find the highlighted notebook.
Is it possible to scroll to position where note opened? Like an action that happens when <a href="#linkid">Go to link</a> is clicked?
+1 for reveal in navigation. Would be very useful for me.
Reveal in navigation can be achieved by Focus Sidebar, it takes you immediately to the right place in the folder structure.
Breadcrumbs is one of the feature of the Note Tabs plugin.
As you might expect, clicking on an element within the breadcrumb path will jump to that location. Might be worth a try for you?
