Brain Box extension - have two right click options
I am not comfortable with the work flow of BrainBox. I suggest having two right click options (or left click options), one for Add to Brainbox and one for Select Parent thought. This allows the user to chose AT THE TIME OF ACTION, rather than having had to remember to set the setting on the last usage. I do not want Vulcan to open if possible, I would just want a search box, but understand if that can't happen. When using the Extension, I don't want to "be in The Brain", I want to be moving on to the next…

Make the Pin bar full screen and/or two lines deep
With many people working on large monitors, the Pin bar could be much more powerful. Please consider making it full screen width. Part 2 is to make it two lines deep via pulling down with the cursor. Related forum post

Have Custom Instructions for the AI prompt
Custom Instructions are like standing instructions to the AI tool that apply to every prompt. OpenAI calls them Custom Instructions, you might use a different name like default or something. For me I would dictate a style of response and the use of bullets.

Themes as a thought property, including background
We can assign backgrounds to thoughts using the Typing system (meh), but you have to be careful that all backgrounds work with within the applied theme (or else your text might become ineligible). That's because the theme is applied globally, while backgrounds are not.
The solution is to allow themes on a finer grained scale, like at the typing system level (to match backgrounds as it work now) or on selected thoughts basis.

Separate background customization from thought Types
Currently the only way to customize thought backgrounds, a valid use case on its own, is by assigning a type that has one associated by it. This renders the typing system useless.
So for my (creative) work flow, I want to assign backgrounds and types, but they are not linked. Types are supposed to work cross cutting across the plex, but this breaks if your background-requirements are not exactly the same.
It would make more sense to have background simply a property of thought itself. Or of tags with some sort of priority system, but that would be complicated in…

Let the note editor seamlessly work with selection of thoughts, editing continuous content
Currently, the note editor is restricted to the 'active' thought. However, I would like to edit thought notes in an integrated continuous way (like the scrivenings mode in Scrivener). This would allow me to work on content more easily that is distributed across notes (such as scenes of a novel.
The notes could be separated with a dotted line for example, and when moving in the note editor to other notes, the relevant thought in the plex is navigated to automatically. This would be amazing, as you would always have your relevant brain-part available to you as you focus on…

UI101: Closing Pop-up Windows
It would be helpful to add the usual "X" button for "Close Window" to the pop-up windows of the commands "Add Attachment/Add from Brainbox..." and "Add Attachmen/Add File from Template...". I know, one can use ESC, but having a "X" button for closing a window is an almost universal standard that everybody knows.

Button to (temporarily) disable navigation in any Layout
The Mindmap Layout is unique in that clicking and activating a node doesn't navigate to it. For bulk thought updates (like renumbering them for example, or mass note updates), this is super useful!
But why not enable this mode of thought activation in any Layout? There's plenty of space next to the Layout button to switch between 'normal' mode and 'locked navigation' mode.
Or else allow a ctrl-shift click on a thought (or similar) to activate without navigating.
13 votesIn v15, both mind map and the outline layout now work this way. At present we are not planning to enable this for the normal layout.
