Please fix the "jump thought issue"
At least I guess that it can only be a bug:
I make extensive use of jump thoughts, as they are also a wonderful way to display all the topics of a thought to which they are attached - sort of a keyword index/overview for a given thought.In order to create one, I use the corresonding keyboard shortcut (Ctrl-K). Pretty straightforward - but only if the thought to be created does not already exist (somewhere in the brain). Because when you then select the already existing thought from the selection window, a link is created but NOT the corresponding…

Make the lines of a YouTube video's table of contents “clickable/usable”
Make the lines of a YouTube video's table of contents “clickable/usable”
Just as an example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTSRx78Aac8
When you click on this link, you will see a YouTube video – like millions of others. Then click on “More” and you will (hopefully) see a few lines that represent the content of the video (like a table of contents) and the corresponding time code at the beginning of each line.
This makes it easy to jump to a specific point in a longer video.
I would be delighted if theBrain would one day retain these links when I insert text like this…2 votes -
Make any animation/movie file continuously playable in a loop inside Thebrain (eventually switch on/off)
Make any animation/movie file continuously playable in a loop inside Thebrain
Almost any other software that is able to play movies has an option to loop the file your watching continuously. Not Thebrain... GIF / MP4 / MOV / ... doesn't matter, just add an option to loop the content independent from the platform (browser/desktop) your using, please!
Best Regards

Improve the timeline feature and add a new chronology feature to the brain map so specific temporal-based relationships can be visualized!
Note: This is a general idea, I'm not suggesting the features should work exactly like how I laid out, but more what end result / function should be strived for (ie. chronologically organizing information in a more selective way)
To provide context:
I'm interested in mapping connections / relationships between individuals. It's very important to be able to do this, as understanding relationships between individuals is critical for analysing potential conflicts of interest, including historically.The individuals are the bedrock "child thoughts" of my brain.
Their parent thoughts will be things which bundle people together such as organisations, movements, maybe…

Add indents, lines, or bullets between items in a Table of Contents
When items in a Table of Contents wrap to two or more lines, it can be difficult to distinguish between the different items in the list.
I suggest adding formatting that makes it easier to see where each new item begins. I've attached a few possibilities.

Introduce a really TheBrain AI assistant
The way AI is implemented in theBrain is not a really assistant as e.g. Github Copilot. So it should have agents e.g. prompts starting with "@" and context ones e.g. prompts start with "/" which shall replace the existent ones in "notes" tool. Also as an AI assistant as a chat.

selection and working with text with certain styling attributes
While in the note editor on desktop and iPad, allow us to use a selective filter that can select OR filter text with certain attributes such as:
- All text in the note that has any background color
- or a certain background color or set of background colors
- optionally bolded, or italicized or a certain heading level or other style attribute
Once this has been filtered, allow us to create a thought attached to the current thought (child, parent or jump) with the filtered text as the new thought's note including the source text's style attributes intact. The filtered text can…

set background color of note text from keyboard
Color coding text and text backgrounds is important to my work. Allow me to type a keyboard sequence to set the background color or text color in the note editor such as: command-shift-B-2-3-return to set background color to the light orange background appearing at column 3 and row 2 of the color picker. This will allow me to quickly learn and use a common set of sequences for the colors I use most often. While typing the sequence, the color picker should highlight the first item of the column and then the chosen row. If I wish to change the…

Be able to toggle on/off or hide labels in the web browser
It would be nice to be able to have a switch in settings to toggle on/off labels in the web browser as scrolling over the Thoughts in the browser with labels popping up can be distracting and overwhelming visually.

Hide thought types on iOS
It would be super helpful if there were an option to hide thought types in the plex on iOS. Occasionally I accidentally tap on a thought type and it causes the app to hang for 10+ minutes if the type is used frequently.

Interlink All Jumps
When a bunch of thoughts are added to selection, add a function, "Interlink All Jumps". This would make every thought that are jumps of one thought, link with all the other thoughts in that jump batch. Then when you jumped to another thought, the same jumps are also attached to the newly activated thought, and every thought in that selection.

Enable Single-Key Activation for event change Popup Menu Choices Body:
I’d like to suggest an enhancement that would significantly improve workflow efficiency and keyboard accessibility.
When modifying an event and dismissing the properties popup, a contextual menu appears with four choices: Cancel, Only this, All the following, and All in the series. Currently, these options require mouse interaction or multi-step keyboard navigation.
It would be incredibly helpful if each option could be activated with a single keystroke—specifically c, o, a, and s—corresponding to the first letter of each item. This lightweight mnemonic-style activation would eliminate the need to switch between mouse and keyboard, making it easier to stay in flow…1 vote -
I would like to be able to change link types all at once, similar to being able to changing types all at once.
I would like to be able to change link types all at once, similar to being able to changing types all at once. You can go to a parent thought and link all to children, so I think by this same logic you should be able to easily implement something like a change multiple link types at once. I use this a lot for families and showing lines of succession. I have siblings and spouses, children, etc. Having something like this would quickly be able to make my link type visible as something like "Sibling", "Parent/Child" or "Spouse". Out of…

Retain status of heading folding state in notes
Currently when you fold a heading the information under it is hidden (standard behavior).
However, when you navigate away from the thought and then activate it again, all headings are expanded. It would be nice if the fold status of headings is saved with the note it retains fold status after navigating away.

Idea capture
I've been using TB for 20 years; yup I'm an original.
As may seem logical, as much as TB is my virtual office space; I use other products and they inspire me to view their functions and capabilities that would fit nicely into TB without it seeming to be some kind of copy of competing products.
I trialled Tana app recently, and as much as it's to me just another complex PKM product that simply cannot rival TB, it has a rather awesome mobile device app called Tana Capture and I am super convinced we Brain users would benefit immensely…

Add label using subsequent parenthesis of thought name during thought creation
Currently, adding parentheses around the first part of a thought name will cause that part to be skipped for sorting purposes, while subsequent parentheses will be ignored. It is recommended to use subsequent parentheses as symbols for adding thought tags, which better aligns with users' habits of adding labels and facilitates users in quickly adding thoughts and labels from copied and pasted text.

Add note content during thought creation
TheBrain already has the feature of add a label during thought creation. It is hoped that a feature of adding note content during thought creation can be added. It is recommended to use a colon as the delimiter, which not only conforms to users' intuition but also facilitates pasting relevant content from web pages, PDFs or other texts, reducing some text processing work.
