Ability to simply drag and drop items from my local drive into capacities to import the content.

I use daily note to collect idea, link , tweet... etc. but I cannot move those block to other page or notes. it would be great if I can open page on sidebar, then drag block between two side.

Drag and drop seems one of those things that one normally expects as basic principle of current day apps. Greatly, Capacities by now allows for some d'n'd in the left & right side panels, blocks in objects, and for import (once the modal is opened). There are some more areas / contexts within UI-architecture where it would be a welcome feature; and a catchup with native OS apps, really. So, I'd like to propose / ask that there is a general commitment to have a general drag and drop principle implemented in Capacities (– even if this technically breaks down to individual steps of implementation) There is a host of requests for d'n'd here on the board, and I feel this really should be seen as one effort; as it concerns a principle of UI that one is used to by now. – In that respect, I feel, it belongs to the area where CAP still needs to catch up, and which should somewhat be prioritized over adding new feature sets and build extensions of the core capacities. --- for reference 👉 https://capacities.io/feedback/p/import-via-drag-drop https://capacities.io/feedback/p/drag-block-to-other-page https://capacities.io/feedback/p/drag-and-drop-for-sub-pages-in-sidebar https://capacities.io/feedback/p/allow-drag-drop-in-daily-notes-day-view https://capacities.io/feedback/p/tagging-via-drag-and-drop https://capacities.io/feedback/p/drag-and-drop-items-into-collections-in-dashboard-view https://capacities.io/feedback/p/allow-drag-and-drop-of-supported-file-types-to-dock-icon https://capacities.io/feedback/p/drag-and-drop-between-properties

Selecting and then trying to scroll a certain block up a page does not work. I expect that the page scrolls up or down if i move the block to the border/top of the browser window: Video: https://discord.com/channels/940596022344843336/1074297264991911967/1074620615891365988

Allow the ability to drag and drop block(s) to a date in the calendar on the right hand side in order to add the block(s) to the Daily note for that date. If no Daily note has been created for that date yet, create a Daily note automatically, then add the block(s) to that Daily note.

You can easily rearrange databases and pinned pages in the left sidebar. It would be cool to also have the ability to rearrange sub-elements of pinned elements, so you can have some sort of spaces and hierarchy, basically behavior as in Notion sidebar. This also applies to the collections.

organizing items should be simple and a breeze. tagging is declared one of the central organizing dimensions of Capacities. ergo: it should be most easy. the autocomplete is already great! but in terms of ways people work efficiently with their workspaces drag and drop of a set of items ('files') is still one of the most basic patterns of any UI. tagging (= organizing, structuring) many items simultaneously should also be as easy and quick as possible; basically because each and every item should essentially be tagged in a PKM like capacities – this relates also to another open request on making multi-tagging possible in the first place ( https://capacities.io/feedback/p/add-a-tag-to-multiple-line-items-on-page ). thus: there should be some way to take / select a group of entries and drop them over a tag :-) (... actually, I was surprised to see the tag branch in the sidepanel doesn´t unfold and reaveal the tags; thus making them more obscure / hidden as a top-level structure )

Every time I look at the Dashboard page of a collection I automatically try to drag content from the Inbox section into a collection above to clear it out from the inbox, and it would be great if that was a functionality that worked. 😅

To be fair, you can select multiple chunks of content by dragging the mouse to select that content if you start the mouse drag outside the content... or perhaps somewhere else. But I typically begin dragging from the text within a chunk or block (not sure what you call them) So when I try to drag and select content from other blocks, if I started that mouse drag selection within the text of a different block, I can only select content within the block I started from. I don't know if that makes sense, so I'll try to elaborate. If you imagined my separated text paragraphs here in this feedback form as separate text blocks in capacities, if I started dragging my mouse to select all of the text directly at the "To" of the first word, or perhaps at the "be" (second word)... I am not able to drag the mouse to select other paragraphs like this current one. It only allows selection of the first block. Maybe it's just me but it has a bit of a UI shock value to think the interface doesn't allow me to mouse drag to select all of the content.

Would it be possible to add drag and drop functionality to be able to move what I add in the properties of a custom type item? Of course between the same property type.
