Some visual improvement suggestions

Open j-peeters opened this issue 3 years ago • 6 comments

Thanks for developing this incredibly useful plugin. I have some visual suggestions.

  1. make the space (in blue) for the path to central note adapt to the content to save space. Now often (in my case) there is a lot of white space below.
  2. I would also propose to align the path to central note and current note in the tree (purple). Easier to focus the eye.
  3. You might gain some space by making the space to the left of a tree item a bit smaller (orange).
  4. It would be great to have a setting to set the size of the text in the tree. I prefer it smaller.
  5. Also, a setting to set the color of the lines in the tree would be great. I think I could do with a lighter gray.

Thanks for the well-founded suggestions!

I'll keep them in mind when i next get to work on the design.

Today I noticed one (other) thing that is confusing for me when using your plugin. Notes that have other notes they link to get an arrow in front of their note title. Therefore, the titles 'jump' inward, while the hierarchy is the same as the notes that don't have a note they are linking to. Proposed solution: move the arrow to the left so that the note title of notes that have notes they link to always begins at the same line with notes that don't have notes they link to. It would make the tree more clear, I think. This would be similar to the tag list in Obsidian. It could be that in this way, combined with truncated note titles, you don't even need separator lines. Thanks for considering.
