I'm still hoping for a true wysiwyg input screen that shows PDFs/PDF previews. I'm probably unusual, but I save a lot of note fragments or parts (receipts, tickets, plans) in PDF form because they can be more complete than an image, but Joplin still can't display them interactively in a single window.
@Overzeetop Oh, indeed, my bad. Enhancement plugin adds this functionality. I forgot that I have it ๐
Oh - I'll have to look into that. I'm always leery of plugins. Not that they're bad, just that re-installing often becomes an easter egg hunt for all the things (PTSD from using MediaMonkey for many years).
@Overzeetop These days i use so many programs on various platforms. Some of them can be quite complicated which makes setting them up again painful, so I keep notes in Joplin for all the apps I use on whatever platform. I've added the relevant platform icon for each parent folder (Windows, Linux, Android etc etc) to aid visually when opening Joplin. This includes settings, plugins including links, along with any tricks/user tips
