Add a toggle for "Workspaces" shown in the sidebar. #5206

Open johnnyboisssss opened 3 weeks ago

johnnyboisssss commented 3 weeks ago

Description

The "workspaces" text in the sidebar is not seen as useful, as all one's files are already there, making the sidebar pretty self-explanatory.

Proposed Changes

To improve the minimalism of the app, it would be nice to be able to toggle this off.

This, again, has been modeled after the macOS HIGs.

Here a comparison between Zettlr's file manager and in this case Apple Mail:

What I could offer is make these headings optional and only appear when you have both files AND workspaces, and hide them if you only have workspaces.

Seeing as all that can go here is workspaces though (files can only rest inside a workspace folder to my knowledge), I don't think the categorization is as necessary as in apple mail, but I think your idea is good.
