Request: Configurable default notebook view #712

Open mardukbp opened 4 years ago

mardukbp commented 4 years ago

Currently, when selecting a notebook the notes it contains are shown as b.NotebookName o.created. But I would prefer to have the inverse temporal order: b.NotebookName .o.created.

It makes more sense to me to have to scroll all the way down if I want to unearth an old note, whereas a note I just added (e.g. using Share to Orgzly in Firefox) is at the top. That way I can easily modify it.

Would #140 work for you?

Creation time might not be always available, for example if you're syncing notebooks and don't have "Use property for created-at time" enabled.

Another approach might be to remember the scroll position in a notebook, so that if you were at the bottom, you land there when opening the notebook the next time.

I'm thinking of either making an issue asking for this or implementing it myself—however it seems to me a very obvious behavior that should be the default and doesn't even need settings, which means others probably have solid reasons why things shouldn't be that way.
