Properties
Properties are frontmatter fields that Tolaria can display, filter, and edit.
Suggested Properties
Suggested properties are the fields Tolaria knows how to create quickly from the Properties panel. When a suggested property is missing, the panel shows a shortcut to add it with the right editor.
| Field | Purpose |
|---|---|
type |
Groups the note into a type such as Project, Person, or Topic. |
status |
Tracks lifecycle state such as Active, Done, or Blocked. |
url |
Stores a canonical external link. |
date |
Represents a single date. |
System Properties
Fields that start with _ are system properties. They remain in plain text but are hidden from normal property editing.
Examples include _icon, _color, _order, _sidebar_label, _width, and _pinned_properties on type documents or notes.
Property Editing
The Properties panel is the safest place to edit structured properties. Toggle it with Cmd+Shift+I on macOS or Ctrl+Shift+I on Windows and Linux.
Date fields use Tolaria's picker, relationship fields can use wikilinks, and raw Markdown mode is available when you need direct control over YAML.
