Reasoning for the new layout title spacing

[SamKook]

I had a look at the new UI layout today and immediately was baffled by how much space the title of the file is using in the UI. I'm aware it's possible to customize it and I've seen css examples for it in other threads, but what I'm curious about is why was that decision made.

To me, it's unthinkable to waste that much space, even if disappears if you can scroll down, and it bothered me to the point I immediately switched back to the old theme(didn't want to bother tweaking it since it might change and I couldn't find how to change attributes with it anyway) so I was curious to learn why that would be desirable to someone.

I can't say i feel like there was so much wasted space in the new design that that would give me any reason not to use it when I otherwise really like it, but I also have noticed that there is some empty space around the title that seems unnecessary. In particular, some empty padding above the title and the empty area for switching note type that remains there even if it is empty.

If that is what you mean, here is a simple change i made to my Trilium to improve these two things:

1. Make a new Code note anywhere, type CSS.
2. Add a note attribute #appCss.
3. Insert

.inline-title {
  padding-top: 0 !important;
}

.note-type-switcher:empty {
  display: none;
}

4. Reload and enjoy

Maybe this helps you too! Cheers!
