Resizable Scratchpad

[hinnyman]

• I hope this is the right place to leave wishes
  • please let me know if it isn't
• I love :heart: the plugin. In my Joplin layout it shares an always-displayed panel with “Favorites”

• I especially use the Scratchpad component continually

  • I use it to hold persistent oft-used strings and special characters (“”, …, ⇒, ★, —, and many more)
  • But I use it so much that the visible part of the scratchpad is full; to see everything I have to scroll
  • This is a shame because there is lots of unused space in the panel that Scratchpad shares with Favorites

  ---

Conclusion

• I'd love to be able to resize the Scratchpad: stretch it so that it occupies all the unused space in its panel
• This is not the same thing as moving the Joplin-supplied divider which allocates the panel space to the panel's inhabitants
  • (Giving Scratchpad more room using that method just results in the same size Scratchpad with lots of unused (and unusable) space around it)
  • I'd like to expand the actual visible Scratchpad area.
    • Example:
    • This is the Joplin panel of mine with Scratchpad and Favorites:
      • 
    • I'd like to be able to grab the bottom edge of the Scratchpad and resize it down to the Favorites.

It seems that's also my request! Please make it happen! Thanks!
