🔒 Persistent Layout #1

Closed benji300 closed 3 years ago

Description

It shall be possible to save the "Editor layout" (Editor, Viewer, Split View) for each note separately.

For example, a "finished" note that is usually not changed anymore will always be displayed in rendered Markdown mode.

Implementation Proposal

[x] Add tag to the note to store current layout: layout:editor|viewer|split
[x] If selected note is changed: check for the tag and change the editor layout
[x] Add command to add or update the tag in the note's content

New commands

[x] "Persist editor layout" (persistEditorLayout)
- if triggered, current editor layout is saved for the selected note
- by means the corresponding tag is added

UI additions

Optionally add button to "info bar" (top right corner) of note to trigger the command

Settings

None

Requirements to plugin API

[x] API to retrieve which layout is currently active OR
[ ] Commands to explicitly set a layout (e.g. setEditorLayout<x>)
