Sliding Panes (Stacked tabs)

Explain the problem as you see it

Before I switched to Tana a year (!) ago, I was a heavy Obsidian user. One thing I loved about Obsidian was its "Sliding Panes" or "Stacked tabs" layout, which allowed you to sort of "travel" through your notes in a super intuitive way.

Now, Tana's panels are nice and good, but I still miss the sliding panes! And I'm sure others do too.

Why is this a problem for you?

Tana's current viewport panels can be a little finicky and awkward.

Suggest a solution

A way to open nodes in fixed-width stacked and scrollable panes similar to this Obsidian plugin.

That would be amazing! I found the concept of sliding panes a while ago through this page here: https://notes.andymatuschak.org/About_these_notes

Links open in new panels and then stack onto each other on either the left or right side of the screen. Simply sliding left and right makes navigation very quick and easy, also with my mouse with thumb wheel.

The same concept is implemented in this tool here, although navigation is not yet as good as on the page above: https://www.tangentnotes.com/
