is this relevant to being able to search through rendered citations as discussed with @User and elsewhere or do text statistics in the rendered output as mentioned here? https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/1887

yeah, but there are discrepancies in frontmatter. left was created from cmd + l, right was created from clicking calendar. title is different. ( later I found out this can be solved by traits , but it would be nice to apply the same existing traitId: journalNote)

The reason for the discrepancy is that the one on the left was created without the 'journal lookup modifier' set - when it's set, then it'll add the journalNote trait and the formatted title. the journal modifier is set when you either use calendar view, run 'Create Daily Journal' command (Cmd+Shift+J) or use regular lookup with the Journal (Cmd + L) and toggle the Journal Modifier Button (one with the Calendar icon). We may alter this behavior later to make it more intuitive

What about just the extension log output? Does that exist? (>

Dendron:Dev Open Logs

). Is your machine managed by your company? It sounds like maybe your company may have restricted access on parts of your filesystem which may be interfering with the ext?

hi @User , thanks for your inputs. I can open logs. I tried on a different laptop, and had the same issue. now I am suspecting the issue is within my vscode settings or extension conflicting. I will run a blank install later to test.

the last note in hierarchy cannot be a stub, right?

Is there an non techy way to delete a whole branch? Only idea I had was in Terminal with RegEx, which is not Amateur friendly

You could select all the notes in the file explorer, then delete all of them. Dendron should recognize the deletes automatically.

It wouldn't make sense for the leaf to be a stub, yes

Do you mean regular vscode delete? Dendron note delete seems only working for single note

If I do this, the last stub becomes a new file

Yes, either deleting them from the VSCode file explorer (top of the explorer panel by default) or using your operating systems' file browser. Either should work

What do you mean by that? Is dendron creating a new file when you delete them outside of Dendron? If that's the case, that sounds like a bug and we'd appreciate a bug report so we can fix it

I'll try recreate that

failed to recreate. Propably just creating a mess again. Sry

@User Was their an answer regarding the autoscrolling? I dont know why but I felt it was enabled before (or as it never been ?) Now that I pay attention indeed scrolling is not synced between dendron preview and notes ...

scroll sync was a feature when our preview was a separate extension. we have since moved away from it and now provide the preview feature natively from Dendron. The features that were not ported over are scroll sync and custom styling for preview. We do have plans to work on bringing them back 🙂

good to know. I thought I broke something 😄

Hi. So, I want to reference a particular item of a list but I'm a bit annoyed that the anchor shows up in the preview. Is this intentional?

Hi, I'm reading the workspace documentation page (https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/c4cf5519-f7c2-4a23-b93b-1c9a02880f6b/) where two workspace types are mentioned: "Code workspace" and "Native workspace". Is there any page about the code workspace? There is one about Native workspaces. The page also says "Code workspaces are great when you are setting up a knowledge base." which makes me really curious about why they are good when setting up a knowledge base... is there a page about this?

As far as I understand, there isn't a separate page for code workspaces because that's more or less the "default" Dendron workspace relative to native workspaces. With native workspaces, vscode's workspace-specific behaviour will be determined mainly by the workspace file for the project that Dendron is initialized alongside with. If Dendron has its own vscode workspace file, those vscode settings can be more tailored towards setting up a general-purpose (as opposed to project-specific) knowledge base, with paths to multiple vaults, recommended extensions for markdown-based operations, and any other configurations that might make the workspace function better as a markdown knowledge base as opposed to a programming workspace.

Thanks, I later realized that a Code workspace is an ordinary VS Code workspace dedicated to Dendron. I normally use a separate extension for project management in VSCode, so I did not realize that the

.code-workspace

file was VSCode's own workspace settings file. I think it would be better to write in a more transparent way regarding Dendron and workspaces. That would make the process of understanding how they work easier for people like me 😉 Something like "Dendron can be used inside an existing VSCode workspace or you can create a dedicated workspace for use with Dendron. In both cases, the Dendron configuration is saved in the file

dendron.yml

. If you are creating a dedicated workspace, workspace settings will be saved in the file

dendron.code-workspace

.

.code-workspace

files are used by VSCode to save workspace settings, so you can also configure which extensions (e.g. markdown extensions) etc that are needed for your dedicated Dendron workspace (link to VSCode page about .code-workspace files)" I'm really trying to use and get used to Dendron as I like the concept, but it's hard to use the wiki. Perhaps it's easier to to access the information in the wiki via Dendron in VSCode?

In VSCode there is a panel for backlinks. Is there a panel I can turn on that shows a note's children?

**Why is the tutorial root not showing up in my tree view?**: I have a folder called dendron which I initialized as a Code Workspace and then proceeded to add the remote dendron wiki as a vault. I then copied the tutorial vault (folder from the dendron tutorial) into my dendron folder (see image) and added it using the "Dendron: Add vault" command. Why is the tutorial root not showing up in my tree view panel?

Figured it out. The id of

dendron/vault/root.md

and

tutorial/root.md

were both

"root"

. Changed the id of

tutorial/root.md

to

"tutorial-root"

and reloaded and I have both roots in the tree view. 👍

thanks for the doc updates. we'll add it to our doc update backlog. Heads up that if you can update the docs as well -> [Documentation](https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/b58801fc-43a9-4d42-a58b-eabc3e8538cb.html) If you do, you'll earn the [Taxonomist](https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/7c00d606-7b75-4d28-b563-d75f33f8e0d7.html#taxonomist) role 😇

I will keep that in mind if I think of anything else while getting to know Dendron 🙂

That looks like a regression, sorry! Would you mind sending a bug report and we can fix that

Can you embed a snippet into a template? Example: - In

template.dailyjournal.md

, I'd like to capture some data each day (wake up time, etc) - How can I... -

CTRL + SHFT + i

to create a Daily Journal - Input some data as if I was in a snippet using cursor stops (like

$1

,

$2

, etc)? Or do snippets and Dendron templates need to be separate?

i am getting a white flash followed by a brown screen on dendron show preview, i disabled markdown all in one and reloaded window, but still happening, not sure if anyone has any suggestions, other threads suggest removing markdown extensions but i have no others that i can find
