if you run vault add and choose remote, you should be able to add the seed template repo back in

Hey all. Should renaming a file move it in the hierarchy or is there a specific way to do this?

I created a file and it put it under root, then I renamed the file with a hierarchy prefix but it's still under root.

Hmm well I used the move note command it and it worked. Shouldn't just renaming the file work as well?

It should. Did you do a

Dendron: Rename Note

?

Dendron: Move Note

has an extra step that allows you to move it to another vault in multi-vault workspaces, but otherwise is same command. Rename allows you to change the entire note name (ex.

my.old.note

->

newer.note.for-me

)

I'd have to test out. I know I have had weird situations where I made a new note, to continue deeper into an existing hierarchy in a vault, but the note was created in an unintended vault where the hierarchy didn't exist. I didn't have the

confirmVaultOnCreate

activated at the time. I'll have to replicate. I'm thinking that if it only adds to current vault (by default, if

confirmVaultOnCreate

is

false

), even if hierarchy exists elsewhere, that it would be a good feature request to prompt which vault to make it in if: - Lookup sees the hierarchy existing in another vault - Lookup doesn't see the hierarchy in any of your vaults yet

I believe I did

Dendron: Move Note

. But like I said, it worked when I did that. What didn't work was right clicking the file in vscode and choosing Rename.

any way to change the style of the preview dendron is rendering? Spacing is a bit weird between parent and indented-descendant bullets

Hi, wrt your answer. Does

Dendron: Refactor Hierarchy

do the same

change the entire note name

thing? May I know why do we need 2 commands for the same behavior?

- `Dendron: Rename Note`: Renames a single note - `Dendron: Move Note`: Moves a single note to a different vault, can rename during move - `Dendron: Refactor Hierarchy`: When you wish to rename a collection of notes at one time by changing pieces of the hierarchy Some slight differences, but they also all include updating backlinks referencing the note. Refactoring is the most powerful one, and is able to do the most at one time. - Refactoring: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/0fFWWockAV3L7mMMJOyGF/

great. Thanks for pointing me to the guide in wiki. bookmarked 😄

not yet, that’s coming soon!

Does the preview feature have some css files lying around that could be tweaked?

nope it was possible on preview v1 (i.e. a dendron fork from another extension that allows css modification and other features) but v2 (the one that comes with default currently) doesn't support those features yet, there are a couple issues on github about this, and I'm sure the team is working on improving it https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/1360

Ahh ok. Thanks!

is the auto-template creation defined by schema broken?

like where you do - id: child-node template: template.test-template type: note

Is it on the roadmap to make lookup more powerful? I realised on big advantage that it seems to me that Notion currently still has is their lookup command which searches both Note titles and note bodies. So I don't need any mental energy, I just cmd+p and type anything vaguely related. Whereas in Dendron I need several mental processes: * Cmd +L vs. Cmd+Shift+F (Full text search) which also doesn't have all the nice lookup enhancements * When Cmd+L, I also can't look for note titles, but have to look for note names - which are often a abbreviation for typing speed

If you just rename the note in vscode Dendron doesn't notice. If you rename notes not using the Dendron commands you should run

Reload Index

for Dendron to pick up the changes. Depending on what you changed

may be useful too

You could upvote this, or add to the discussion: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/1198

in v0.72, when using command

Dendron: Refactor Hierarchy

, the note hierarchy

awesome.foo.dendron

is not prefilled in

match text

as previous version. Is there any config to bring it back? Thanks

that’s a regression, we will fix this. @hikchoi 👆

@User @User This was intentional. The placeholder text for refactor hierarchy was populated with the current active note's hierarchy, but I removed it because it's not always the case that the active note's hierarchy is part of what a user would want to refactor. I'll revert it back to the original behavior because it seems like my reasoning is going against the existing use case and intent.

Hi everyone, Quick question regarding the editing of UML diagrams like the following Use Case diagram: @startuml actor Customer Customer -> "login()" : username & password "login()" -> Customer : session token activate "login()" Customer -> "placeOrder()" : session token, order info "placeOrder()" -> Customer : ok Customer -> "logout()" "logout()" -> Customer : ok deactivate "login()" @enduml Writing this in my Dendron note does not generate the diagram in the Dendron Markdown Preview... Am I doing smth wrong? I installed the extension PlantUML and updated all my extensions as well as Dendron. Best regards, Tunn (a new Dendron fan) --- #UML #PlantUML

Dendron unfortunately doesn't support UML. It does support diagrams through mermaid if that works for you: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/8DCgctK-RMD4EeHjC5_hI/#diagrams

Please feel free to submit a feature request for PlantUML support though!

Thank you very much @User for taking the time to answer! I am already using mermaid for the sequence and class diagrams :) I was just missing a tool to generate a Use Case diagram Is there maybe an alternative to PlantUML for Use Case diagram picturing the actors?

Upvoted... I agree that it would be useful. Mermaid has User Journey but it really is simplistic.

Hey guys, just wondering if and how you guys implement a glossary/dictionary type system where you might reference it across you're notes?

have you been using the 'peek definition' functionality already at all?
