Slash commands
In Rich mode, type / at the start of an empty paragraph to open the slash menu. Pick an insert with the mouse, or keep typing to filter the list and press Enter.
Slash commands work only in a paragraph. They do not open inside headings, lists, quotes, code blocks, or table cells. Move to a blank paragraph first, then type /.
Open the menu
- Switch the note to Rich mode.
- Place the cursor in an empty paragraph.
- Type
/. - Choose an item, or type part of its name to narrow the list.
Press Escape to close the menu without inserting anything.
Structure
Use these inserts to shape the note:
- Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3: section titles
- Bullet list, Numbered list, To-do list: lists and checklists
- Quote: a blockquote
- Code block: a fenced code block
- Divider: a horizontal rule
- Table: a 3×3 Markdown table with a header row
- Table of contents: a live outline of headings in this note
Embeds and callouts
- Mermaid chart: a Mermaid diagram block
- HTML embed: a sandboxed HTML preview block
- SVG embed: a sandboxed SVG preview block
- Details block: a collapsible section you can expand and collapse
- Info callout, Tip callout, Success callout, Warning callout, Error callout: styled callout blocks
After you insert Mermaid, HTML, or SVG, edit the code in the block. In Rich mode, use Run preview on the block to render it. Preview mode renders these blocks for you.
Equations
- Inline equation: LaTeX on the same line as surrounding text
- Display equation: a centered LaTeX block
Glyph opens the equation editor when you insert either one. Write KaTeX-compatible LaTeX, then press ⌘/Ctrl+Enter to apply.
Color and highlight
Apply color or highlight to the current selection (or the next text you type):
Color: Gray, Brown, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Red, plus Color: Clear to remove color.
Highlight: Yellow, Blue, Green, Red, plus Highlight: Clear to remove highlight.
You can also set color and highlight from the Rich editor ribbon.
Tips
Type a short filter after / to jump to an item. Examples: /h2, /todo, /mermaid, /info, /math.
If / does nothing, check that you are in Rich mode and that the cursor sits in a paragraph, not inside another block.
