Table of Contents / Note Outline
Nenad Kovačević
I would really like to see this implemented.

I wholeheartedly support this feature request. Collapsing headers is the workaround I use to make sense of long notes, but it's not enough. A TOC, whether in the sidebar or on the top of the note, would make my life so much easier...

I wonder whether this could live in the top bar rather than sidebar with other references? I've hacked table of contents in long notes for presentations etc. using wikilinks and it works 'well' in the top bar as a workaround. It can get annoying with large titles and this is a hack - but it may point to a more embedded solution.

+1 Definitely need this feature. Noteplan is almost my all-in-one app expect for those very long notes. Without a TOC it's hard to nav in the note.

+1 I’d love a sidebar outline / toc view like obsidian 🙌

Merged in a post:
Display document outline (titles) on hover/touch for faster navigation

There's a new app in town (cloverapp.com) and they have a really cool outline feature which shows small dots to represent each title, which opens up to a quick outline when you mouse over it. Here's a GIF:
It would be great to add such an outline feature in NotePlan, whether in the sidebar or within the note itself like Clover handles it. Thanks!

I'd love an option to have a table of contents as a sidebar replacing the current right-hand sidebar (perhaps just by clicking on a tab so that switching between sidebars is quick). Most of my longer notes with sub-headings are project notes rather than calendar notes, so when I'm working on them I generally don't need to see the calendar or events list.

Use case: Some of my notes are rather long (e.g. lists and sublists of CLI commands that I use at work ) and I would benefit greatly from being able to jump to the right height to copy the needed command.
Attempted to do this manually by making a list of links to each heading and placing it at the top of the note but since I cannot change the name of the link they are ridiculously long and hard to read.
e.g.
[[Terminal Commands#### Changes in CSS - redeploy with no downtime]]
..which is of course almost unuseable.

Alex I believe you can change the name of the link by placing the note link in an external link
For example after creating the note link: [[Terminal Commands#### Changes in CSS - redeploy with no downtime]]
Right click and ‘copy link’
ie [custom link name] (paste the note link here)
*do not put a space between [] and (). That was so it didn’t render into a link in the comment
Of course this is just a hacky workaround. And this is from memory so some details may need to be checked.

Really wish we can get this!

:+1 for this. It would be hugely beneficial to see the outline/structure of a longish note.
