Create a new text document

Previous section: Credits

You can create a new text document using

• from the main menu File → New → Note. The new text document is then created in the root folder of the project.

• by right-clicking into a folder in the projects tool window, and choose either New → Note or New → FolderNote. The new text document is then created in the project folder you have chosen.

Note:
A folder text document has a full name which ends with a backslash. Thus its short name is empty.
Example:
The text document with the full name Foo\ is shown with the name FolderNote in the folder Foo, although its real short name is empty.

Once you have create a new text document, a new document window is shown, which consists of two sub windows. One of them is the window in which you write the Markdown text. The other window is the preview window, which shows you the formatted text from your parsed markdown document.

The syntax you can use to influence the text formatting is described in the next chapter.

Moreover, you can choose the arrangement of your editor window and your preview window, which is described here.

Furthermore, other options are available:

• switch on/off line numbering in the editor window

• switch on/off folding in the editor window

• switch on/off word wrapping in the editor window

• switch on/off spell checking in the preview window
