Bookmarks

[nemo-omen]

I love Rnote so far and I'm finding that it's already very good for things like notetaking. One thing that would be extremely useful is bookmarks.

There are probably a million ways to go about implementing something like this but I'm a fan of selecting a set of strokes (handwriting etc) and adding their location and a preview to a set of bookmarks for a document.

The Ratta Supernote does a spectacular job of this: https://supernote.com/pages/note-system-everything-you-need-to-stay-organized?gclid=CjwKCAjwtKmaBhBMEiwAyINuwDc8CXV1IILZX6AV5VmbPQwL8n76lL0GdRdRbjvETropkDz-_sa4URoC96AQAvD_BwE

The app Write by Stylus Labs has a neat implementation of this: making a mark in a margin indicates that that line is a bookmark, and the marks made on the rest of the line are displayed as the title.

This could potentially be trivially implemented if the bookmark is stored as a coordinate. Not all papers have lines, so the most general solution would be to mark a point (x, y) on the page that serves as the bookmark.

In a separate menu somewhere, a thumbnail similar to the one @curbia shows could be rendered around that point, and pressing the thumbnail would simply jump you to that coordinate.

Using x,y coordinates allows bookmarks to work in 2D space, too, which could make for some interesting opportunities for creative non-traditional notes. Rnote does support infinite vertical and horizontal space, after all.

That said, I also like the idea of Supernote links, in which the link is a selection of elements rather than a coordinate. That would probably work just as well

I do utilize the horizontal space a lot, and I'm probably not the only one, so 2D bookmarks as mentioned by @benjamin051000 would have a much greater impact for me compared to 1D bookmarks, which would already be great

It would be great if someone would implement it, especially for large pdf books it would be useful to bookmark some locations
