Sync Capacities with Apple Calendar

Should be able to use the '@' sign to set a reminder back to that object

For pages that may no longer be relevant, it would be great to remove them from view either in an Archive form or a Hidden feature.

The ability to connect multiple entities on a whiteboard and add free text. The whiteboard itself is also an entity and has it's own database. A good implementation is Heptabase.

Add tags hierarchy so we can tag items very granuarly like #recipe/breakfast and #recipe/dinner which can all be viewed under #recipe.

The spacing before and after headings needs to be adjusted. The current setting has less space immediately preceding a heading and more space following it. The result is that headings appear to belong (visually) to the preceding paragraph/block. The standard in document formatting is to put more space before a heading and less space after to accurately visually depict the hierarchy in the document. Related to this, other blocks and block groups are weirdly spaced as well. There is more space between bullet points, for instance, than one would typically expect of related list items. It ends up looking like unrelated paragraph blocks.

I think it would be a great addition to have Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly Notes along with the Daily Notes interface. For example, by pressing the number buttons above the calendar to create one.

When creating a custom type, you get the option to add a new property of any type of database (ie page, weblink, etc) or content (text, number, etc). however, sometimes it could be desirable to have a poperty that can link to any item in any or some selected databases. For example, adding a "source" property to a note should allow to choose a weblink, audio, image, or custom type. and not limited to one type only.

Drag and drop seems one of those things that one normally expects as basic principle of current day apps. Greatly, Capacities by now allows for some d'n'd in the left & right side panels, blocks in objects, and for import (once the modal is opened). There are some more areas / contexts within UI-architecture where it would be a welcome feature; and a catchup with native OS apps, really. So, I'd like to propose / ask that there is a general commitment to have a general drag and drop principle implemented in Capacities (– even if this technically breaks down to individual steps of implementation) There is a host of requests for d'n'd here on the board, and I feel this really should be seen as one effort; as it concerns a principle of UI that one is used to by now. – In that respect, I feel, it belongs to the area where CAP still needs to catch up, and which should somewhat be prioritized over adding new feature sets and build extensions of the core capacities. for reference 👉 https://capacities.io/feedback/p/import-via-drag-drop https://capacities.io/feedback/p/drag-block-to-other-page https://capacities.io/feedback/p/drag-and-drop-for-sub-pages-in-sidebar https://capacities.io/feedback/p/allow-drag-drop-in-daily-notes-day-view https://capacities.io/feedback/p/tagging-via-drag-and-drop https://capacities.io/feedback/p/drag-and-drop-items-into-collections-in-dashboard-view https://capacities.io/feedback/p/allow-drag-and-drop-of-supported-file-types-to-dock-icon https://capacities.io/feedback/p/drag-and-drop-between-properties

It might be a niche feature, but one that is not that common for PKMs, so it might be a good competitive edge. Personally, I know I have a huge amount of handwritten notes I'd like to make searchable into my knowledge tool, and so far there is only really Evernote that does it (or Onenote, but..).

It would be great if I could roll back a note by 15mins-1h whilst i'm working on it in case I delete something I wanted to keep.

Normally, in the iOS app, I can press enter to add new lines, which creates a new text block. Then I can backspace, which removes the new text block and move my cursor back to the previous text block. But recently I suddenly can't backspace to remove the empty text block - when I press backspace, nothing happens. It's annoying because, for example, if I accidently press enter in the middle of a paragraph, I normally can recombine them by just hitting backspace, but now they are semi-permanently separated until I edit in the desktop app. I'm running Capacities 1.65.12 and iOS 26.5.

Ability to quickly capture content from anywhere on macOS using a keyboard shortcut( examples: Mem.ai, Things3, Drafts, and Lazy.so)

Unlinked mentions are not displayed on objects that have zero backlinks. If I create one genuine backlink to the object, the backlinks section appears and all previously hidden unlinked mentions become visible. This occurs across all object types, not just People. Unlinked mentions should display independently of whether the object already has a backlink.

I would love to be able to take handwritten notes / draw directly in the app, or even on embeded medias, and to draw links between differant objects
