I currently have the global shortcut set to ⌃ + Space. At the moment, pressing the global shortcut opens the command bar. If you then change your mind, you need to press Esc to close it. I have other Mac apps with globally launchable command bars and it seems like the convention is that if you retrigger the global shortcut, it then closes the command bar, like a toggle. This has now become especially noticeable because I have a keyboard with many macro buttons that I've bound to global command bars for other apps. For those apps I can press the key once to open the command bar, and then press it again to hide it. With NotePlan I have to press one button to launch the command bar, then another button to close it.

It would be helpful to have either a static note Table of Contents (TOC) displayed in a sidebar or to be able to dynamically generate it with a /TOC command within a note.

At the moment you can only schedule a task by copy & paste. Means NotePlan doesn't delete the task in the current daily note. Instead, it copies it to the target date and marks it as "scheduled". This is ok for some tasks, but not all. Many users have the habit of cutting tasks to the next day so that only the completed are left in the current or previous day. And some users want to add just the >date tag and link daily notes together instead of copying or cutting the task (which is not working at the moment and). The problem: In addition to the previously said, the fact that scheduling behaves differently in the project and daily notes create some confusion and friction. The solution: (see screenshot) Add options to the scheduling, remembering your last selection in regular and calendar notes: Link (just adds a >date to the task) Cut (cuts the task and pastes it to the target date) Copy (copies the task to the target date and marks current as scheduled) Additional changes required: Rename "move" to "schedule" at the top. Create a backlink for >date , except the state of the task is "scheduled" to avoid duplicates in the schedule by copy option. Remove preference "Only add date when scheduling in notes" (you can use the options at the bottom to control this). Add an info button to explain the differences. Remove "Complete Task" to reduce clutter. And consider removing "Cancel Task" ( Click on check-box cycles three states ) Shortcuts ( CMD+1... ) would behave according to the last selected option. For consideration: Add a "Clear" button to remove an existing link Add "move" section to move a task into a project note . Related: Call it schedule again Add "Cut & Paste" Task Moving UI Bug: "Mark as Scheduled" is missing an ellipsis User preferences: Redesign task scheduling preferences Eliminate task state "Postponed" Wording: more systematic terminology for "links"

I’d love to request a feature to be able to zoom into bullet points (hoisting), similar to what Workflowy has (IMO) perfected. Being able to “hoist” a bullet point and temporarily treat it as the top-level view reduces distraction and lets you work deeply within a single project, task, or outline branch. Complex outlines can be overwhelming at full scale. Zooming in on one bullet keeps things manageable and easier to follow. Additionally, many users (myself included) are familiar with this feature from Workflowy. It's the only feature from Workflowy that is keeping me from fully replacing Workflowy with Noteplan. • Clicking (or using a keyboard shortcut) on a bullet zooms into that node, promoting it to be the "header" and showing only its children. • Breadcrumb navigation/keyboard shortcut (like “Parent > Child > Current”) allows moving back up the outline. Thanks for considering this.

At work I only have the choice to be on a PC. A web version would help to stay with Noteplan all the time. Or windows app ✅ Public beta available, sign up here for the waiting list: https://tally.so/r/31dePp

Would it be complex to color the week in the mini calendar in red if it contains overdue tasks, just like the days? I prefer to review by day, using the mini calendar, because it gives me the full context of the tasks. thanks!

The iPhone and Mac both have event list views at the daily note level. For the Mac, it's in the right sidebar. For iPhone, it appears above the daily note. I think the right sidebar version as for the Mac would work best. The iPad already has a default event list view in the right sidebar for the weekly note, so it is probably easiest just to make this an option for the daily note.

I find myself sometimes struggling to navigate back to today's note as I move around from note to note, create notes, etc. It seems that there are various arrows in the macOS UI, and they don't all do the same thing. Keeping my location history in a single stack and moving through it might be more intuitive. + navigate back/forward between daily notes, not only project notes.
