Horizontal rule and collapsible headings

[smoky fern]

When a heading is collapsed, the horizontal line remains visible.

This is by design

Oh wait

Yes, this should be fixed.

[dull pasture]

yes, horizontal lines should be hidden

[spice plinth]

I kind of like them. It gives me an option to differentiate between different headings...

If they are supposed to be hidden then maybe we could get an option to not hide the one just above a heading.

[dull pasture]

you can insert the rule after collapsing the above heading

but you'll then need to insert the rule everytime you expand the heading

[spice plinth]

Yeah. That's the thing.

Maybe the ruler height can be reduced so it's not very distracting.

Design thoughts: If I were a user, I’d probably expect that a horizontal break is a way to stop a heading from collapsing the items below

I don’t mind either solution, whether the line break stops the heading from collapsing items below or not. If I approached with the perspective as a new user, I’d probably expect that items below the line break would not be hidden.

It is

That isn’t how it behaves in app right now. Is that the bug you’re talking about?

[hollow heron]

I mean it should act as a heading boundary but it should also get hidden on collapsing the heading.

[brazen valve]

Ok. I understand now. That makes sense

[smoky fern]

Maybe it can be made to behave smart. If there is no content between a horizontal rule and a heading, it should stay there.
In this example, only the second rule would remain.

My thoughts on this.

Let's say you have a heading and then additional subheadings and these subheadings are separated by a horizontal rule. Wouldn't that mean that only the first subheading would be hidden? Something like in this example.

If I collapse heading 1, I would expect headings 1.1 and 1.2 to be collapsed as well.

[brazen valve]

I sometimes write notes like this:
<heading size 2 or 3>
<text>
<horizontal rule>
<text, no other headings>

So sometimes I'd like to be able to collapse the heading, without the contents below the rule also being collapsed.

I think it's reasonable for a rule to prevent further collapsing beyond that point.

With the implementation presented here, you could collapse heading 1.1 and heading 1 (if collapsed) would also collapse heading 1.2.
