Notes has a refreshed workspace that makes it easier to capture ideas, organize notebooks and move between reading and editing.
Write with one consistent editor
Regular notes, notebook templates and Scratchpad now share the same document-based editing experience. Add text, private images and dividers, arrange your content, then save the complete note when it is ready.
When you start a note from a notebook template, your work stays in the browser until you save it for the first time. This avoids creating an empty placeholder note while you are still getting started.
Find your way around Notes
Home is now focused on quick capture, with Scratchpad presented as a compact place to write something down and save it when you are ready.
All Notes, Notebooks and individual notebook workspaces have also been refined to make notes easier to scan, select, read and edit. The shared workspace navigation keeps the experience consistent with other ElegantArc apps.
Pick up in the right mode
You can switch between View and Edit for regular notes and Scratchpad. Notes remembers the last mode selected for each note in the current browser, so you can return to the way you prefer to work.
The updated workspace is designed for both desktop and mobile, with layouts and actions adapted for smaller screens.
