I support all of these ideas, but especially maximum content width -- I wish more apps had this (and margins).
I would find a colored index tree useful, too. I used to use Wikidpad which let me set icons in the index tree, and I missed that when I moved to Zim. (Of course, any of these could be plugins. If I ever finally learn Python I will try to write a maximum content width plugin for Zim [and Geany] if it's not already done :) ) Best, Colin colintedford.com <http://treesandhills.org> On Sun, Jan 17, 2016 at 10:11 PM, Felix <fe...@egoversum.com> wrote: > Maximum Content Width: > > I'm working on a 24" screen and I was thinking that it would be nice to > have a setting or a minimalistic slider over the editor to define the > maximum displayed content width.
