Folding Embedded / Transcluded Notes

+1

Is there a good mod for this?

A helpful discord user showed me that embedded docs can easily be hidden inside a foldable callout, like so:

[!My Callout]-
![[mydoc.pdf]]

Thanks deezy.

+1 for this!

I’d love to see all block types become foldable. E.g., i would love it if blockquotes were foldable.

Maybe this is related?
Link: Reading view: Embedded links cant be folded/unfolded

(this is the latest discussion i could find on the topic)

What I want is simplicity: Embedded links in the standard Rendered Editing view should render with a clickable toggle indicator on the left, just as headings do. If collapsed, it would render exactly like [[Embed]] does (i.e. showing the text), and if expanded, it would render as its content like it currently does.

My use case is, I want to write an article and atomize the sections by making them separate files. I would write a section as

### Embed
Section text

This is foldable. But at some point I want this to be a separate note and then use the command to convert to a note and embed a link. This gives me ![[Embed]].
Then I can see the section inline. But I would like to be able to expand/collapse these sections the same as I would #### headings, but it no longer is possible. ### ![[embed]] doesn’t work because the stuff is inlined. So the only way to do this is the very clunky

### Embed
![[Embed]]

If there’s a plugin, to do something linke this, I’m open.

Commentary on previous discussion
I don’t use Reading View much, so zakazak’s link isn’t interesting to me.

redwards’s suggestion for embedded pdf doesn’t seem to do anything for embedded notes.

chrsle suggested some complex thing involving a crease plugin, which clutters the markdown both by requiring outline structures, a description line and a fold marker. I would forgo all that and just use ![[Note#Header]], if that could then be folded.

Is there a good workaround or plugin for this?

At the moment, I’m using foldable callouts, but it would be really nice to be able to have bulleted lists where each bullet point can be unfolded to show transcluded notes in the level below.

+1 for me - really hard to believe that there is still nothing developed.
I use this function for creating checklists that consist out of many small sub-checkliste… if they are all open in the new master list - it’s difficult to work with, if you can close/fold sections.
