Use case or problem
I use links on my frontmatter to group notes together, making navigation between notes taxonomically related (by category or type, for example) easier. However this approach makes the Local Graph show up a lot of connections to those links, so when I use `depth > 1` I get notes that are not related to the one I’m in, except for being of a similar kind. So if I’m on a Task, for example, I’ll get paths to other tasks that are not related to the one I’m in at all.
I want to be able to navigate the Graph View and Local Graph without links and connections from my frontmatter (Taxonomy of the note) and focus on organic connections via inline links, that are what creates real connections between notes.
This would make it easier to find unexpected connections between notes, since the links would all be relevant and intentional.
Proposed solution
An option on the Local Graph, inside the ‘Filter’ menu would suffice, with a toggle between showing frontmatter connections and not showing them. It can be more customizable by letting the user select which properties are filtered out, but (at least for my use case) it isn’t needed and may add a high complexity to the user and on the implementation as well.
Since the app can identify tags from the frontmatter and from the note, it shouldn’t be a challenge (I think) to make the same with links and then provide the option to filter out said links.
Current workaround (optional)
There is no workaround at the moment. I just don’t use the Graph Views (Global and Local) as much as I’d like to, to find these connections, since most of it is filled with taxonomic connections.
