Hi, I am learning the Rust language. I added a folder to my Dendron workspace. The thing is that I can't use rust-analyser. Sometimes it works, sometimes not! Is this unique to Dendron? Does anyone have any tips?

I think

rust-analyzer

expects the

Cargo.toml

to be at the root of your workspace. I'm not sure if there's an option to tell it where the file actually is. You might want to go the other way around, create a rust folder then start a native workspace in it: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/lamzybrD6SgQlJ9BpwkQk/

is there a way to change the explorer tree view to display filenames instead of note titles?

is there a way from the 'look up note' dialog to select the vault while creating the note? I've tried .ticket.name

the only workaround i've found is to ctrl +l root, selct the vault ctrl + l ticket.name

Yes, you'll need to set this setting:

commands:
    lookup:
        note:
            confirmVaultOnCreate: true
            vaultSelectionModeOnCreate: alwaysPrompt

This will prompt which vault you want to create the note in after you select the note name Relevant docs: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/24b176f1-685d-44e1-a1b0-1704b1a92ca0/#vault-location-when-creating-a-note

thank you

Is there a way to list notes sorted by creation date? I think I asked the same Q somewhere but I've lost it... Thanks!

limited support right now. you can sort backlinks by last updated and lookup will switch to creation date. @User has an issue for sorting lookup results by date created > https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/2504 otherwise, you can use the

ls

command, see https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/20460/how-do-i-do-a-ls-and-then-sort-the-results-by-date-created i've been thinking about having the calendar widget also serve as a filter for notes that are created/modified on a certain date

is it possible to export the notes to later import in a different computer?

Yolu can synchronize your workspace to another computer (git, Drive, Dropbox, etc.) and then use it there.

I have a diff git on each, I guess I'll try exporting to json

(also don't want to share accounts between both, that's why this "trouble" 😅)

You can also put the workspace into a USB Flash drive or something if you want to avoid going over the internet

I'm just trying to say you don't have to export it if you are going to use it with Dendron on both computers, you just need to copy all the files

ah so I can literally copy all the markdown files?

I thought it wouldn't work due to the ids

Yup, that should work. You need the whole workspace though, not just the note files.

ah exactly that's what I don't wish 😅

cuz I want only a part of the workspace in both (even if manually sync'ed)

Hmm, you can create a new workspace in the other computer then add the notes you want into that, that would also work

like copying the whole workspace, then deleting all except what I wanted?

No, just copy the files you want. Dendron automatically recognizes notes you put in it, so you can just copy over a few notes and it will work.

ah

then I can do that even in the current one

not sure what you mean

if I need the workspace

how would that work

1. Install Dendron on both computers 2. Use "initialize workspace" on both computers 3. Copy the notes you want from first computer to second computer, and put them into the workspace you made

ahh that's what I meant xD
