Obsidian: Show name of note in calendar

When notes are used as project cards, the tasks defined on those notes are often reused. Looking at the calendar and seeing common tasks on multiple days doesn't tell the user what project that task is for.

The ability to include the name of the note in either the task name or as a secondary line in the calendar block would make it clear what note/project the task belongs to.

    So I understand.

    If you have tasks on different files with the same name you would like to see the filename on the tasks in Morgen?

    If that is the case, you can show the filename as a display label "Note" or group/organise the Obsidian view by them.

      Right, I can see the name of the note in the list of tasks on the left. But after I drag the task into the calendar to schedule it, it no longer appears in the list of the left and its block in the calendar only says the name of the task, like "Complete Report".

      I'm hoping for a way to display more information in the actual calendar than just the name of the task or the event without needing to double click and pull up all of the details. The name of the note, specifically. Either in a secondary line below the title or integrated into the name of the task.

      I'm sorry if there's already a way to do this, I've spent easily an hour googling and clicking around and I don't see it.

      Joshua: Always happy to help and answer questions here or in the discord.

      You can show scheduled tasks in the task sidebar by adjusting the 'view' settings. This will keep the information available there.

      There is a feature request for showing more information on the one click view which may help you in the future: https://morgen.canny.io/feature-requests/p/more-slot-details-on-click
