Organizing your notes
Folders, favourites, drag-and-drop, and finding things again.
The sidebar next to the editor is your library: a tree of folders and notes you rearrange by dragging.
Notes and folders
Create a note with the New note button, from a folder's menu to put it inside that folder, or with Ctrl+N (Cmd+N on macOS). New folders start at the top level; nest them by dragging one onto another, to any depth. Rename anything by double-clicking its name, or from the row's menu.
Drag-and-drop
- Drop a note onto a folder to file it inside; the whole row is the target.
- Drop it near the top or bottom edge of another note to place it above or below.
- Drop a folder onto another folder to nest it; aim for the edges to reorder instead.
Mnemo will not let you drop a folder into itself or its own subtree.
Favourites
Star a note from its row menu or from the breadcrumb bar above the editor. Favourites sit in their own section at the top of the sidebar, sorted by most recently touched. Four show at once, and Show more reveals the rest.
Finding things
- By title: press
Ctrl+Pto jump to the sidebar search. - Inside a note: press
Ctrl+Ffor find and replace, with case-sensitive and whole-word toggles. - Within a long note: the floating Index chip lists the note's headings; click one to jump there.
Mnemo reopens the note you last had open.
