Both additions came from the same reporter, and both are choices rather than replacements: your list keeps its shape and your notes keep their titles until you say otherwise. No permission or storage-format changes.
Added
- See your notes as a grid (#279). Settings → Notes & search → Notes list layout now offers Grid alongside the one-column List, which stays the default. Grid lays the same notes out as cards, in as many columns as the screen fits — two on a phone, more on a tablet, and it narrows correctly in the tablet's list pane beside the editor. Everything else about the list is unchanged: the Today / Yesterday / Pinned sections still group your notes, long-pressing a card still opens pin / archive / lock / trash, and Show note previews still governs whether the excerpt and edit time appear.
- Choose which line becomes a note's title (#280). Markleaf took the title from the first Markdown heading anywhere in a note, so a note that opened with a paragraph and had a heading further down was titled by that heading — the same note, retitled by an edit ten lines below the top. Settings → Notes & search → Note title now offers First line, which always uses the first non-empty line and strips the
#markers if that line happens to be a heading. First heading remains the default, so nothing is renamed unless you switch. Switching retitles the notes you already have — leaving their edit times, and therefore their order, untouched — and Sync Center → Rename files to note titles brings a sync folder's filenames along.
