Lookup (Direct Child)
By default, unless you are at the root of your workspace, Dendron performs a fuzzy search of all notes that match your current hierarchy prefix. This is useful to see your entire sub-tree in one glance but can be overwhelming if you have a lot of notes. The directChildOnly filter is a toggle that limits lookup depth to one level deeper than the current value. It will also filter out stub notes. This filter is useful when exploring notes one level of depth at a time.
