Folding: pressing up arrow when cursor is behind 3 dots unfolds the contents below

Bug reports

This is my 2nd out of 3 bug reports regarding folding. I will edit the text soon to provide links to the other ones.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Sandbox vault and [[Start Here]] note.
  2. Use Fold all headings and lists command
  3. In live preview mode, place the cursor at the end of the first folded header line (right after 3 dots).
  4. Press up arrow - instead of the cursor going up, the section below unfolds.

Expected result

The cursor should simply go up and the section below should not unfold.

Actual result

The section below unfolds and the cursor lands somewhere below.

Oh I think I can’t edit after another note links to it?

Thanks this is currently intentional.

If you are past the 3 dots you can assume that the cursor is at the end of the folded section and cursor navigation happens accordingly including unfolding because the cursor moved within the folded section

Hmm, you might be right that this is the preferred way for let’s say majority of users, but are you sure? Do you use this functionality yourself?

For me this folding/unfolding is something I compare to html <details> element or folding in sublime text. My preference would be that once I explicitly fold something, it will not unfold unless I explicitly request it (it shouldn’t be possible to happen by accident). There is no way someone can get into trouble not knowing how to unfold, because there is always the small arrow to the left of the line.
