Editor preferences

Last updated

Open Settings → Editor on web and desktop to shape how the editor works. The mobile editor is simpler and exposes fewer of these options.

View and saving

  • Default view mode sets how new notes open: Editor, Live (live preview), Split, or Preview.
  • Note auto-save delay controls how long after you stop typing Notate saves, from 500ms to 5s.

Layout and spacing

  • Tab size switches indentation between 2 or 4 spaces.
  • Line numbers turns the editor gutter on or off.
  • Word wrap turns soft wrapping on or off for long lines.

Cursor

  • Cursor blink turns the blinking cursor on or off.
  • Cursor style sets the shape: Line, Block, or Underline.

When Link previews is on, pasting a single URL expands it inline into a title, description, and image.
