# Octarine 0.31.0 Changelog

Released: 2025-12-20

### Introducing Views

Views let you create custom filtered, sorted, and grouped tables of your notes — powerful datatable interfaces for organizing, searching, and visualizing your content at scale. Think of them as smart saved searches that update automatically.

**What can you do with Views?**

- **Custom Tables**: Build dynamic tables that display your notes based on any criteria.
- **Powerful Filtering**: Filter notes by system fields (like created/modified date, tags, task status), custom properties, linked notes, and more. Combine multiple filters for precise queries.
- **Flexible Columns**: Choose exactly what data to display in your table, from note names and dates to custom properties, tags, and task counts.
- **Sorting**: Easily sort your notes by multiple fields to get the exact order you need.
- **Personalization**: Customize each view with unique names, icons, and colors to make them easy to identify. Rearrange them to a custom order.
- **Default Views**: Get started instantly with three pre-built views:
  - **Organised Notes**: All notes in your Notes folder, sorted by last modified date.
  - **Pending Tasks**: Notes with task checkboxes, showing status and counts.
  - **Recently Written**: Notes modified in the past 7 days with their linked notes.

**How to get started:**

1. Open Views from the sidebar or use the shortcut `Cmd/Ctrl + K → Go to Views` (or `g w`).
2. Click **"+ Create View"** to create your custom table.
3. Add filters and configure columns to tailor it to your needs!

- Fixed an issue where text color was not applied correctly for `Bright Light` and `True Dark` color themes.
- Fixed an issue where renaming the folder (or any parent folder) of a note that is present in a tab would not result in the breadcrumb and tab names being updated.
- Fixed `Refresh Properties` button in the Properties tree not re-indexing the entire workspace.
- Fixed list properties being incorrectly identified as `tags`.
- Fixed an issue where the rename error box for light themes would follow a dark theme pattern.
