Bug Description
I have "Tasks" queries that surface notes with [.] in my project pages. These are pulled in from the daily notes. In pages with queries that surface long results, the TaskNotes tasks linked to that project page obscure the query result. I have to disable TaskNotes, read the notes, the re-enable TaskNotes.
The "Tasks" query is as follows:
status.type is NON_TASK
description includes {{query.file.filenameWithoutExtension}}
path includes _daily/
group by filename reverse
Steps to Reproduce
- Open any long project file.
- Scroll down to read the notes surfaced by the "Tasks" query.
