... (re-)introduce an enhanced version of the "living table of contents" from version 14.
In version 14, we had the ability to create a living table of contents, allowing us to quickly jump back and forth between different headings. Unfortunately, this feature was not carried over to V15.
As a result, I now read structured documents almost exclusively in Obsidian, where an outline is generated automatically—and, conveniently, displayed in a sidebar. It doesn’t get any more convenient than that.
(LibreOffice Writer and Typora can do this in Markdown, too.)BTW: This is also the reason why lengthy legal documents always need to be bookmarked.

Deep linking
One of the interesting features of Obsidian (and some other stuff) is the ability to deep-link to specific paragraphs of notes. I can write a note and link a statement to a paragraph in another note. Or, even transclude that other-note paragraph into the note I am writing.
In addition to this, other aspects of deep linking needed in TheBrain include:
~ Section anchors that would correspond with the existing section headers used in the TOC
~ Bookmarks that could be placed at the paragraph level
~ Transclusions (amazing!)Please add these deep linking features to TheBrain? For me it's…

Thought Icon Alignment
I would like to request a new feature for the Icon of Thought in the edit section of the software: the ability to adjust or align the image preview.
Currently, the icon often displays the image incorrectly, which is difficult for me due to my OCD. As shown in the attached image, the preview of the girl is incorrectly focused on her chest instead of showing her face, which is the intended subject. Allowing us to precisely adjust the icon's crop or alignment would resolve this issue and greatly improve the editing workflow.

Add the ability to link to a brain using a custom domain.
I am not sure how feasible this is, but it would be great to be able to use a custom domain directing to a specific brain. The current address to a thought in any brain is meaningless to the casual user. It would be an advantage if a custom domain could link to say the thought name. Not sure if this is possible, but it would be extremely useful.

Thought Type and Keyword Filter
It should definitely be possible to filter and display thought types and keywords. So far, you always see all of them from the entire Brain. That's very impractical.
I only want to see the thought types or keywords associated with a specific thought or area.

Allow Reordering Note Text Actions Above Keyboard on Mobile
Please allow the ability to customize the order of the Note text actions on mobile.
I use Indent and Outdent more than any others, and it's frustrating to open the dialog repeatedly when cleaning up notes on mobile.

create timeline event from date text selection
In the content panel selecting an obvious date like "Jul 24, 2024" or "7/24/2024", that either through the context menu or hotkey, it opens up the Timeline Event creation dialog entry on THAT date.
I have content with many, many dates and it would be wonderful to optimize this adding process.
There is SO much you could do with the Timeline feature, but I will keep my request manageable :)
I understand the complexities of detecting dates from a String, so even if there are strict rules about when it would detect or the string pattern format required for detection…

Viewing Images in notes independenly
I like to collect screenshots in my notes. Which is useful because it allows me to comment individual shots in one note. All is well and works fine - but I sometimes run into readability problems when TB isn't fullscreen or my notes panes it too small. It would be great if the context menu for images had an option to quickly zoom them out, show them in original size.

Settable pdf view zoom default value to other than 100% settable value like 125%, and center visible text in view window.
PDF view Preference setting zoom default to settable value other than 100% perhaps 125%, also center visible text in view window. Save multiple zoom and center clicks, makes better use of screen and reduce eye strain.

Spatial positioning of Thoughts in Outline view
I would love to have the ability to temporarily position Thoughts freely within the Outline view, almost like sticky notes on a canvas.
The relationships between the Thoughts would remain unchanged—a Thought would still be a child, parent, sibling, or jump Thought—but its visual position could be changed independently. For example, I could place a central Thought in the middle and arrange related Thoughts around it in a circle, creating something like a constellation or solar system of Thoughts.
This would add a spatial layer to thinking. Thoughts placed close together could represent a strong connection or relevance, while Thoughts…

需要一个全局的视图
我们需要一个全局的视图，就像Obsidian的关系图谱一样，这样可以很直观的感受到我的TheBrain中有多少个想法，给人一种直观地感受。当然，我觉得Obsidian中的图谱，最大的作用就是感知笔记的数量。而在TheBrain中，目前的视图的确很好，但都只是局限于局部关系的图示。
We need a global view, something like the relationship charts provided by Obsidian. This would allow us to easily understand how many Thoughts exist in TheBrain, giving us a clear and intuitive sense of the overall situation. Of course, I believe that the most important function of the charts in Obsidian is to help us keep track of the number of notes involved. In TheBrain, the current view is indeed useful, but it still only shows a limited representation of relationships between individual items.3 votes -
A built‑in date (or datetime) field on each thought
1.
Optional “Thought Date” field
- Set via a date/time picker on the thought.
- Supports just a date or full datetime.
2.
Sorting children by Thought Date
- Parent thoughts can choose to sort children by:
** Thought Date (ascending/descending)
** Or by name (current behavior).- This would let me maintain a clean chronological hierarchy without having to put the date at the start of the thought name.
3.
Display options
- Choose whether to:
** Show the date in the name (prefix/suffix/hidden), or
** Show it as a separate metadata field in the UI.3 votes -
Global ToDo List
Since the launch of TheBrain 15, I’ve started using TheBrain differently, and I absolutely love the change.
Historically, I maintained one large Brain rather than creating separate Brains for individual clients. The single-Brain approach was valuable for searching across everything, but its size sometimes made information difficult to find and navigate.
With TheBrain 15, I now maintain a separate Brain for each client. When I’m working with a client, I can open that Brain and immediately have all the relevant information in front of me. It is a much cleaner and more effective way to work.
My one significant challenge…

Option to sort the search results according to date accessed etc.
At the moment I am not sure how the search results that the search/create field returns are sorted. To me the search order does not make much sense and the thought that I search is somewhere in the middle hidden between thoughts that are not relevant.
It would be nice to be able to choose the sort order according to date accessed or alphabetically. Additional options could be relevant for other users.3 votes -
Implement the possibility for choosing how report results are sorted
At the moment it is not clear to me how the thoughts in the result for reports are ordered.

Being back the "Create Event-reminder" function that was in version 14, that you have the option of hours, days or weeks.
In version 14, "Create Event" in the "reminder" section, you had a choice of hours, days, or weeks. In version 15, you can only do hours (24). The problem is that for projects, reminders are usually more than hours.

Sharepoint - file or hyperlink drag and drop
We use Microsoft's SharePoint for our business file platform. Very frequently, I'd like to drag a file - or hyperlink - directly into a Thought Note (or as a related Thought).
See attached video...despite looking hopeful (TB 15.0.586 and previous versions) by recognizing a drag/drop is in progress, nothing gets processed in TB.
Currently, I either copy the hyperlink and manually paste the hyperlink or download the file to C: and then move it into TB (I usually want the file not the hyperlink, but sometimes I compromise with the hyperlink because it's faster). My expectation is either the file…
