Filter and sort notes and events in search

The full search screen (the one you get to from the search icon, not the quick omnibar) has always let you build precise filter conditions on tasks: status, due date, tags, and so on. Notes and events showed up in their own sections underneath, but you couldn't filter them the same way. Now you can.

Where you'll find it

Open full search and tap Add Condition the same way you always have. The field picker now shows three quiet groups instead of one flat list: Tasks, Notes, and Events. Scroll past the task fields you already know and you'll find note fields (name, path, tags, frontmatter properties, whether it's a daily note, and more) and event fields (which calendar, date range, title).

How a condition applies

A condition only narrows the section it's actually about. Add a note condition, like "Note Tag contains #recipes," and only the Notes section narrows down to matching notes. Your Tasks and Events sections keep showing everything they were showing before, exactly like the existing task-only tag chips already worked. Nothing you add can accidentally blank out a section it has nothing to do with.

Sorting works the same way now, everywhere

The sort button used to offer the same options you'd see when sorting your tasks: priority, due date, tags, and so on. Most of those never meant anything for a note or an event, so they're gone from this screen. In their place: Relevance (the default, best matches first), Name (alphabetical), and Date. Date means whatever makes sense for that kind of result: a task's due date, an event's start time, or a note's last modified date. Each section sorts itself; picking Date doesn't merge tasks, notes, and events into one timeline.

This is a change to the search screen only. Sorting a list or a space still works exactly as it did, with the full set of task fields.

Notes

• RSVP status isn't part of the note/event field set yet.
• This isn't a premium feature: available to everyone who can already use full search.
