Properties panel in right sidebar

[Mtin]

Use case or problem

I like Properties, but I don’t need to see them at the top of my doc. I switched to “hidden” but now every time I want to edit them I have to switch to “source mode” and it only shows YAML and not the Properties implementation.

Proposed solution

It would be nice to have a tab in the right side bar that displays and allows editing of Properties. This would allow quick entry while keeping the document clean.

Current workaround (optional)

None.

Related feature requests (optional)

I posted the same in Plugin ideas, not sure how to decide which one is right. I don’t care if the feature is implemented in main or as a plugin.

This is possible already. Moved to help.

Isn’t this already available through enabling plugin in Settings > Core plugins > Properties view ? After enabling execute the command: “Properties view: Show file properties” from the Command palette.

Merge "all properties" panel with "file properties" panel

Honestly i don’t understand why “all properties” and “file properties" are separated and not activated by default, so my feature request. I assume, the property panels aren’t yet finished features and need yet some tweaks before their features are consolidated in a single panel.
