Definitely @malecjan! The idea of a more useful and clearer outliner seems to be realised in the [https://gingkowriter.com/](https://gingkowriter.com/) . The recipy?

Taking the outline and separate the different levels horizontally. It allows you to work on granular level, but keeps you in the big picture at the same time, to navigate and restructure the document. Very ADHD-friendly! @tallguyjenks puts it here nicely: [https://youtu.be/dxCJHHWyNzY](https://youtu.be/dxCJHHWyNzY)

> What if notes had outline management features built around headings? So being able to move headings (and their content) up and down as well as indenting forward and backward (example: changing from heading 2 to heading 3). Hotkeys for all of these commands as well as hotkeys for navigating up and down between headings. These features could also be part of the Outline plugin. Some inspiration from Microsoft Word’s “Outline” view: Related: [https://forum.obsidian.md/t/go-to-heading-qui…](https://forum.obsidian.md/t/go-to-heading-quick-menu-via-hotkey-support/4201/2)
