This release changes how Explorer handles folders that do not yet have folder
notes, adds temporary folder views, and makes the new behavior safer for
existing users.

Temporary folder views

  • Explorer can now open a folder even when its matching Folder/Folder.md
    note does not exist yet.
  • New installs use the new default: clicking a folder card opens a temporary
    folder view, while clicking the unresolved folder-note link or editing/saving
    that view creates the Markdown folder note.
  • Existing users keep the old missing-folder-note behavior by default: missing
    folder notes are still created when navigating to a folder.
  • Added a Missing folder notes setting with three modes:
    • Links and edits
    • Always create
    • Edits only
  • Ask before creating folder notes now also applies when saving or editing a
    temporary folder view.

Safer folder-note sync

  • Added optional folder-name sync: when a folder or its matching folder note is
    renamed, Explorer can keep the other side named with it.
  • Folder/folder-note rename sync is now safer for existing users. New installs
    can use rename sync by default, but existing users are migrated with sync
    disabled unless they already configured it.
  • Open temporary folder views now keep following their folder when it is renamed.

Navigation and UI

Mobile Action bar Redesign

Now the mobile UI for action bar looks more "Glassy" and Native (when use-glass is on).

Obsidian sidebar folder notes

  • Added settings for hiding folder-note files from Obsidian's sidebar file
    tree.
  • When folder-note files are hidden, clicking folder names in the sidebar can
    now open existing folder notes or temporary folder notes.
  • Sidebar folder-name clicks are strict: collapse arrows and row whitespace keep
    Obsidian's normal sidebar behavior.

Additional Changes

  • The parent button and Go to parent folder command now open temporary folder
    views for missing parent folder notes unless the user chooses Always create.
  • Missing folder-note links no longer imply note creation when the selected
    behavior is Edits only.
  • Mobile folder grids now keep a three-column rhythm for sparse folder lists, so
    one or two folders do not stretch awkwardly on wider mobile screens.
  • The action bar layout was tightened for desktop and mobile.
