Some ideas

[adventkranz]

Hey, thanks for this awesome tool, i've been using it for about a week now and came up with a few ideas.

Embedded File Browser

In the embedded file browser path traversal ../ is always appended. In case you use it to navigate a bunch, the path becomes very long and confusing. Instead of appending ../ the last path item could be removed.

Default Position for the Overview

When right-clicking on a citation an overview opens, which sometimes covers up the citation or some text i might still want to see.
It would be nice to have a config setting to have the overview appear at the bottom or top of the window when created.

Visually mark Target in Overview

Sometimes the target of the overview is at the very end of the overview window and is hard to see.
Generally the targed is not always at the same place, so to find it quicker some sort of marker would be nice.
The mark could be highlighting the whole citation targed (which likely is difficult) or just some icon indicating where it starts.
I have a small POC working as an example (see green highlight):

Select text in Overview

When opening an overview i would sometimes like to copy text or search for it on google scholar etc., currently however, its not possible to select text in the overview. Maybe a command to toggle from overview movement to interactive mode would be nice. Another possibility would be to make a move command e.g. middle mouse button on the overview to move it.

If you consider any of these ideas i'd gladly help with some coding where i can.
Thanks!

Default Position for the Overview

We do have overview_offset which is a tuple of values between -1 and 1 and overview_size which is a tuple of values between 0 and 1 which can configure the location of the overview. Also when you move the overview or resize it (you can move by dragging on the overview and resize by dragging the sides of the overview), the new position of the overview is persisted by default.
