New updates and improvements to Octarine

0.48.0

Redesigned UI, improved sidebar navigation, enhanced Inbox actions, bug fixes.

A refreshed app

Octarine's entire UI has been redesigned across tabs, breadcrumbs, sidebars, Inbox, Calendar, and the editor. The result is a calmer, more consistent frame that keeps navigation and note actions close at hand.

  • Sidebar destinations can now be reordered or hidden, with a choice of count or dot badges.
  • Back and forward navigation now follows the focused split pane.
  • Properties and Tags sidebars have been merged into one with two tabs.
  • Pinned notes/folders are now part of the tree rather than a popover.
  • In tree searches are now hidden by default, and can be invoked on demand.
  • Quickly open Graph/Ask Octarine/Inbox as new tabs from the dedicated button.
  • Empty new tab experience improved.
  • GitSync icon in breadcrumb removed, will only show when there’s an error or when syncing is underway.

Improvements

  • Inbox items now expose Set Priority, Snooze, Mark Done, and Reopen actions in the command bar.
  • New Collapse All Media and Expand All Media commands make image- and video-heavy notes easier to scan.
  • Recently Viewed now shows the complete history in the command bar, with an option to clear it.
  • Settings -> Files -> Show file timestamps on hover can display created and modified times in the file tree. Default: OFF
  • Editor width now acts as a per-pane maximum and adapts to narrower split panes.
  • Custom editor width is now a max width in pixels, rather than a fixed percentage.
  • Split-pane resizing is smoother.

Fixes

  • Fixed note properties briefly clearing or carrying over from another note when switching between notes and previews.
  • Fixed table column resizing handles being shown at the edge of the screen rather than near the column borders.
  • Sidebar resize values now persist after restarting the app.
  • Open right sidebars now stay open after restarting the app.
  • Fixed NoteSheet not opening when clicking doclinks inside an individual note window.

Removed

  • Removed Settings > Editor > Show File name input.
