Another +1 for the collapsable outline feature within a note. Several people have already described the benefits, and I agree with all of them.

There could also be a side benefit to sub-titles in notes. Not only could they be made collapsible but possibly addressable at the sub-title level. If they were addressable they could be linked to, making the collapsable sub-title content portable as well as more organized and improving visual focus of the note. I became a frequent user of the feature in the app I switched to notes from (it had no direction). That app was block based so every line was addressable and made programming features like collapsable list items or paragraphs much easier than document based systems; but blocks have their own issues. Anyway, another +1 for collapsible sections within a note.

FWIW, Google Docs has added collapsing of headers to its editor. It’s now a mainstream feature :slight_smile:

Agreed. I switched from Craft to Agenda because of the latter’s powerful organizational features, but I miss the ability to collapse sections within notes. Looking forward to this great team implementing another great feature . . .

+1 for me, would love to see this feature added for using Agenda for moving from taking notes and ideas to fleshing out a paper.

Planned for an upcoming release (not the next one though).

These are one time foldings. When you unfold them, you cannot refold them without destroying the formatting. I fold something, add something below it, unfold it, now fold it again, then everything gets folded.
You manually have to make the text below a header, which is always a bit clicking around. But yes, a good beginning.
Would be best to just add the possibility to make text header in the markdown manner (adding # before it)

Not really following. Why can’t you make the text header in the markdown manner?

In terms of expanding and contracting lists, we do keep the new paragraphs on screen for a while, but at some point that have to get added to their parent and hidden with the rest. It’s a delicate balance, but generally for short term editing, it should stay on screen.
