Nested Categories

A nested categories for the Codex would allow for easier and cleaner codex.
I have entries for:
Main Characters, Supporting Characters, Extras.
I'd still love to have them under Characters category, so I can collapse them in one click, as with large codex the sheer amount of categories can blot the codex column, even when they are all collapsed.

You can do this either by the tag or the custom details way, associating categories to them. You can even give cats some colors so you can quickly spot them in your prose.

You just described something I wasn't asking for.
What I'm asking for is
Codex:
Cat A
> Cat B
> > Entry A
> Cat C
> > Entry B
> Cat D
> > Entry C
Cat E
You collapse Cat A:
And you only See:
Cat A^
Cat E

Respective Dove I asked for something like that earlier in the first stages of the project, and even when I'd love those "subfolders" in NC, it would need a complete re-stctruring of the app.
So much work, since the software is not designed that way from scratch.
And I know other programs like Dabble and Campfire have this feature in their codex or story bible tools. For worldbulding, Campfire is above every other app in this regard.
But NC was created so it would be used with AI, and the agents are like fairies, they can't have more than one emotion (item) at the time. They start to allucinate when they have to many stuff to connect, and make stuff up out of nowhere, since they don't "understand" everything as you do it in your brain.
But I think spaceemotion can clarify the issue of making this even possible in the app.
