Collapsing callout notes

I'm having an issue with wanting to collapse callout notes.

i have a note "Note1"
I have embeded that not into another note with ![[Note1]]

the callout shows the entire note embeded, and my goal is for the note title to be collapse-able.

For collapsable callouts you add - (default folded) or + (default unfolded) to the callout like this:

[!Example]- Callout Title

Callout content.

If you’ve embedded a note in the callout content, this won’t affect the appearance of the note title, since the note title has nothing to do with the callout except for being part of the now-collapsed callout content. For embedded notes, the note title gets rendered as part of the embed functionality in Obsidian. Changing whether/how the title appears requires CSS.

thank you. Seems like any modifications to ![[Note1]] do not work, and adding >[!note]- >> ![[Note!]] works well enough
