Editing documents
Creating a document
Section titled “Creating a document”Open a space in the Docs sidebar and use New page at the top of its folder tree to create a document at the space root, or open a folder and use the same button to create it inside that folder. A new document opens straight into the editor with an empty title, ready to rename and write.
The editor
Section titled “The editor”The editor is real-time and markdown-aware: type # for a heading, - for a bulleted list, and other familiar markdown shortcuts, or use the formatting toolbar that appears when you select text. Changes save automatically as you type — there’s no separate save step, and if you’re editing alongside someone else, you’ll both see each other’s changes live.
Reading modes
Section titled “Reading modes”Each document has two independent display settings, both in the ⋯ menu next to the title:
- Pages / Pageless — Pages renders the document as paginated, letter-sized pages, like a printed document. Pageless flows the content the full width of the pane instead, with no page breaks. This is saved per document.
- Full screen — the expand icon next to the title hides the surrounding sidebar so the document fills the window. Click it again (or the collapse icon) to bring the sidebar back.
Organizing with folders
Section titled “Organizing with folders”Drag a folder in the sidebar tree to move it — drop it onto another folder to nest it inside, or drop it above or below a row to reorder it among its siblings. You can nest folders as deeply as you like.
Drag a document to move it: drop it onto a folder to file it there, or onto the empty area below the tree to send it back to the space root. Documents aren’t reordered by dragging — where a document falls among its siblings isn’t something you control this way.
One rule for folders: you can’t drop a folder onto itself or into one of its own descendants — the tree won’t offer a drop target for that, since it would leave the folder trying to contain itself.
Next steps
