> If I press CTRL+L in journal.md, it shows only journal this is expected behavior. in order to keep lookup fast, we try to not do an

engine.query

unless we have to. when you first start a lookup, we search for everything under the current hierarchy. https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/blob/master/packages/plugin-core/src/components/lookup/LookupProvider.ts#L295:L295 so

journal -> ""

,

journal.foo -> journal.*

the reason you're not seeing anything for journal is that we also have a special case for

""

where we only show you the 1st level results to not overwhelm you if you're at the root https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/blob/master/packages/plugin-core/src/components/lookup/LookupProvider.ts#L316:L316
