Adding a set of more meaningful export options (visuals, presentation, interoperabiity)
I wish all the work I put up and all the great results I can achieve with TheBrain could be exported in some more meaningful (presentational, interoperable) formats.
I am thinking of things like OPML, multi-thought PDFs including image references to the plex, visuals of the Plex – also local areals, and more linear ones like mind-/concept maps), ways to have slides as output etc.
I am sure others will have some more ideas.
But I feel the current set of export options of TheBrain makes it a very "mute" endpoint of knowledge processes in a lot of scenarios.

Search for settings
with increasing functionality the number of options in settings tend to increase. With more settings searching for a specific setting becomes more tedious.
Many programs now have search functions for their settings so I can find a specific setting quickly. It would be great if you added that to The Brain.1 vote -
Context-sensitive delimiter other than a comma please.
Being able to customize the "comma" delimiter would help provide clarity and identify purpose.
Thought > Child or Child > Thought
with other symbols like / @ $ or whatever.

Keep prompt input with output of AI
working with AI in the note section: when I customize a prompt I get an output however my prompt is invisible. For later actions I would like to remember how I formulated my prompt. So it would be of great help if the output would start with repeating my prompt.

Add Context-sensitive Thought Names functionality to the brain 15
I cannot find the setting to hide the parent thought in context-sensitive child thought names in TheBrain 15. I very much like that economical view and hope it can be added soon if it has not already been added.

Future vision of TheBrain and AI
I already made a comment on another post but I thought it would maybe be also worth as a own post.
It seems to me that TheBrain project seems to focus on utility and beeing an organize your tasks and thoughts project, because it can not really compete with normal AI as a knowledgebase and it shouldn't. But I think there could be an awesome way for the future to share your thoughts with others:
I was interested in making my own AI and it is quite a hard task if you have some unconventional view on something, but in…

I can print a quick todo list - CTRL (CMD) + P before a meeting?
When I export .PDF or .HTML the little todo square list items - do not show up for print - missing both in .PDF and .HTML-
but I wondered why not CTRL (CMD) + P just the selected text directly from the content - the only work arround seems to screen capture and then print - but my "system 1" wants to save seconds in a busy moment before a meeting

Have a local globe where you can enter geo-location coordinates
You could create a separate section like the timeline section and have a spot where you can plug in where in the world something might have happened. There are opensource Google Earth-type websites out there with free data and low-poly Earth spheres. Would be just an extra feature to be able to input and export data with, which I believe is one of TheBrain's biggest strengths.

Watched Folder of Markdown Files
Hi all, really excited about the new release. My request involves having a folder on the filesystem that is watched and any markdown files inside this folder are automatically added as children of the folder thought in TheBrain. Ideally, this would also support a kind of bi-directional sync or live view of the markdown files so no matter which tool they are worked on (e.g. TheBrain, markdown editors, etc) the thoughts in TheBrain contain (or can point to and display) the latest version of the file.
I know this has been mentioned a few times in forums but doesn't seem…

The notes and attachments sections open in separate windows.
I would like to have the option to split the notes and attachments sections into two separate windows. Often, when taking notes, you have to juggle between the web browser (to open attachments externally) and the Brain. With this setup, you could stay entirely within Brain and continue taking notes without switching context.
I could even imagine having the attachments section overlay or replace the Plex side panel, allowing full-length display of the attachment while taking notes—all within the same application.I believe this would improve the workflow.

New feature: custom font
To the dev team:
All the bundled fonts are for English. So this is not friendly for the Chinese content .
Can you add some opensource Chinese font as the bundled font
Eg. https://github.com/lxgw/LxgwWenKai/tree/main/fonts/TTF
The above font is An unprofessional open-source Chinese font.
Or can you add the function to import the custom font, then use the uploaded font for the content in Note panel?
Thanks a lot.

Create, AI-Generate, and Share Diagrams Effortlessly.
看到這麼多人對TheBrain的AI功能提出建議真是有趣！我特別喜歡那個關於整合Mermaid圖表的點子，如果能直接在筆記裡畫流程圖就太方便了。最近正好在找https://mermaidviewer.com/ ，要是TheBrain能內建這個功能，我就不用在不同工具間切換了。希望開發團隊能考慮這個建議，這對視覺化思考的人來說會是很大的幫助！

Improve backlink (unlinked mention) recognition, by allowing thoughts to have aliases
Sometimes you have thoughts that have some formal longer name, like there are companies named "International Consolidated Airlines Group SA" in real life. But when you refer to it in your notes with a shorter name, the reference won't be recognized.
Now, you don't want to fully write out this name each time, but you also don't want to manually create a link each time you write shorter version like "ICAG SA", not only would that be a work-around, often you actually don't want to create a clickable link at all and just leave it with a dotted underline, but…

Text color style format copy/paste
Able to copy and then paste a color style format that has been implemented on to text and its background.
I often highlight certain phrases with a specific color, like a highlighter.
I would like to be able to copy the font color and font background color format, then paste it to other text.
Ideally, the text formatting should also be saved as a preference that can be implemented on any text.

Present an hour glass or other indicator when TheBrain is working.
There are times when TheBrain is working on a task and its unclear if its working, or not, or if its crashed/stuck (see other feedback I sent). Would be nice to have an indicator that lets the user know TheBrain is active.

Figure out why it crashes constantly when uploading thoughts
I Started a new brain of my hard drive data. I create a thought, then drag & drop the contents of a directory from my computer into the thought. TheBrain crashes multiple times an hour as I do this. Seems to be pretty basic functionality, shouldn't be so buggy.

allow wandering sub-sections of the brain (sub-branches, specific tags/categories etc)
I really love the "wander"-function. And I think TB was also leading the field here, in terms of identifying the critical role of serendipity and re-surfacing, which all other PKMs normall identify very late in their product-cycles (if at all).
This is why I always wished this function would have some more depth, fingrain, and discriminatory abilities – for a somehow 'steered/guided serendipity'.
What I would hope for:
• wandering only certain sub-branches of the brain
• specify criteria for wandering (tags, categories, (fuzzy) search-strings…Thx for considering!
