### 💡 enhancement idea: make tags section in folder pane collapsible ### rationale: Users who use more than the 6 default tags have little vertical space remaining for the folder tree.
### 💡 enhancement idea: make tags section in folder pane collapsible ### rationale: Users who use more than the 6 default tags have little vertical space remaining for the folder tree. ### workaround: 1. click on `...` 2. in the pop-up menu click on `folder modes` 3. in the second pop-up menu click on `tags` That's ok for single use, but cumbersome for constant use.
### 💡 enhancement idea: make tags section in folder pane collapsible ### implementation: A small ">" to the left of "tags" (exactly like for folders with subfolders) would be very unobtrusive and would not disturb any user, but would come in very handy for momentarily expanding/collapsing the section if the vertical space is required. ### rationale: Users who use more than the 6 default tags have little vertical space remaining for the folder tree. ### workaround: 1. click on `...` 2. in the pop-up menu click on `folder modes` 3. in the second pop-up menu click on `tags` That's ok for single use, but cumbersome for constant use.
## 💡 enhancement idea: make tags section in folder pane collapsible ## implementation: A small ">" to the left of "tags" (exactly like for folders with subfolders) would be very unobtrusive and would not disturb any user, but would come in very handy for momentarily expanding/collapsing the section if the vertical space is required. ## rationale: Users who use more than the 6 default tags have little vertical space remaining for the folder tree. ## real-life use case: User needs to find a folder buried deep down in the folder structure. User collapses the tags section, navigates the folder structure to the deeply buried folder, does stuff with this folder, then collapses the folder structure and re-expands the tags section. ## workaround 1: disable/reenable tags section 1. click on `...` 2. in the pop-up menu click on `folder modes` 3. in the second pop-up menu click on `tags` And then once the momentary need for collapsing the tags section has ended: 4. repeat steps 1-3 to re-enable the tags section That's ok for single use, but cumbersome for constant use. ## workaround 2: use the vertical scrollbar Yes, the folder tree has a vertical scrollbar, but it would be much more joyful if the user could *momentarily* collapse the tags section in order to *momentarily* better navigate the folder tree without vertical scrollbar (thanks to the freed space by the collapsed tag section). *See use case above.* Imagine you could not collapse but only vertical-scroll the attachment pane filled with dozens of attachments. Same thing. That's why the attachment pane is collapsible.
