Welcome to **Current Folder Notes Pane**—an Obsidian plugin designed to transform how you organize and navigate your writing projects! This plugin is perfect for writers who keep their chapters and related files within a single folder.
Imagine having a specialized sidebar that shows just the notes you care about from your current folder, intelligently sorted by chapter numbers. Current Folder Notes does exactly that by providing a clean, focused view of your writing project.
- 📋 **Smart Note Listing**: Automatically lists and sorts notes in your current folder (perfect for chapter organization like "Chapter T1 - Hello World", "Chapter T2 - Running"...)
- 🔍 **Powerful Filtering**: Include only the notes that matter (like chapters or about files) and exclude others (like index files)
- ✏️ **Pretty Title Case**: Option to automatically format your note titles in Title Case for better readability
- 📚 **Outline Integration**: View headings from your current file or all files right in the pane
- 📁 **Subfolder Support**: Optionally include notes from subfolders
- ⭐ **Visual Indicators**: Current file is highlighted with a star for quick identification
## 🚀 How to Use
1.**Open the Pane**: Click the folder icon in the ribbon or use the command "Open Pane"
2.**Navigate Your Project**: Click on any file in the list to open it
3.**Jump to Headings**: Click on any heading in the outline to jump directly to that section
Perfect for:
