Option to "Toggle own sort order" should be added to "All notes"

Open laurent22 opened this issue 4 months ago • 7 comments

Currently a custom order can be set by right-clicking on a notebook and selecting "Toggle own sort order". That same option should be added to the "All notes" entry in the sidebar.

Hi, I've been looking at this issue and currently working towards it. What 'Toggle own sort order' should do is that a toggled notebook has its own way of ordering the notes. I think what he means is to enable all own sort order for all notebooks if I am correct.

Specifically for the "All notes" item at the top of the list on the sidebar.

So right-clicking on it should show a menu with one item: "Toggle own sort order". And that should do the same as for regular notebooks.

Alright, that clarifies it! To summarize, adding “Toggle own sort order” to “All notes” so it has its sort order, and other regular notebooks won’t affect its order.

I think this new feature will be pretty nice to have.

Hi, I have some updates! I managed to solve the issue. I have to refactor the code a bit and add some tests. I did not delete any existing implementations, only added some codes. I made the 'All Notes' to be the FolderEntity.

Thanks Hahabill, it seems to work as expected
