Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote-App/issues/639

Current behavior

In the old boostnote there was the option to fetch the note title from the note itself. Now the note title is strictly seperated. But often a note begins with a heading which is the same as the title of the note (at least in my case). This leads to a pretty redundant display of title + headlines (first Screenshot). It looks very restless.

Suggested behavior

One possibility to counter this would be to put the note title in the breadcrumb itself and make it editable via an edit button like shown below. The note content itself could then move up.

Another solution would be to make the title editable in the note list and have the ability to hide the title in the right pane. I don't use the mobile app so I'm not sure if my suggestions will fit for that.

Environment

Desktop/Web

  • Boost Note.next version: 0.9.0
  • OS version and name: Windows 10

Wouldn't it also be a solution to not write the title at the start of your document? In your example the note would just start with Bauteile.

Hi. Yea, this would be a solution but it "transfers" information from markdown to the program to achieve a structure which should be made with markdown itself. In addition if the markdown is shared/exported, that title will be lost.

But if you think this request doesn't fit the vision of boostnotes ui, you can close this issue.
