Editor Settings

Let’s start with some customization, shall we? Tap the double-A icon in the toolbar to open the editor settings.

The first section lets you select from a variety of editor themes, and switch the whole app to Dark Mode. This will also switch the current editor theme to its dark variant.

The next section lets you determine how your editor looks and works. You can set your editor Font, and under Layout you can modify text zoom, line length and height, as well as paragraph spacing and first line indent. Under View Options you can further toggle the display of the text counter as well as image preview – the latter can be set to anything between 3 and 8 lines. Editing lets you modify settings for automatic list continuation, smart tags, auto-capitalization, auto-correction, and spell check. It’s also where the dedicated switch for TextExpander can be found.

The next section lets you enable Typewriter Mode and modify its various options, such as line highlight and fixed scrolling etc.

Finally, you can switch the Markup of the current sheet. But let’s get back to this later.

Typewriter Mode

Typewriter Mode is aimed to help you direct your attention to the very words you’re currently writing. You can fine-tune for the best results:

- Highlight fades out everything but the current line, sentence or paragraph, respectively.

- Fixed Scrolling (also known as typewriter scrolling) keeps the line you’re currently typing in vertically fixed on your screen.

- Mark Current Line highlights the line you’re currently typing in.

You can enable Typewriter Mode in the editor settings (accessible via the editor toolbar).

Smart Tags

If enabled, every time you type in a start tag and continue typing, an end tag placeholder will automatically be inserted. So you don’t need to type the end tag, see? To accept the end tag, just tap “Return” on the keyboard.

Smart Lists

If enabled, every time you start a list, tapping “Return” will automatically add another list item. So you don’t have to keep typing these dashes or numbers. Hit the Return key at the end of a list to, well, end the list.

- You can try it right here. Place the cursor somewhere inside this list item (or at its end) and hit “Return”.

You can disable smart tags and lists in “Settings › Editing” (accessible via the editor toolbar).
