Focus Mode

Focus Mode is a distraction-free, fullscreen writing environment. All window chrome is hidden so you can concentrate on your writing.

Entering Focus Mode

• Press F11, or
• Go to View > Focus Mode

How It Works

• The editor goes fullscreen with all UI elements hidden
• Your text is centered on screen at a configurable width
• Typewriter scrolling keeps the active line centered vertically as you type
• Focus Mode works in Edit view mode only

Configuring Width

You can adjust how wide the editor area is in Focus Mode:

1. Open Settings > Focus Mode
2. Use the width slider to set a value between 600px and 1400px
3. Changes apply immediately

Exiting Focus Mode

• Press F11 or Escape to return to the normal editor

Compact Mode

Compact Mode gives you a minimal interface without going fullscreen. It's useful when you want less UI clutter but still need access to other windows.

Entering Compact Mode

• Go to View > Compact Mode

What Changes

• The title bar, toolbar, and tab strip are hidden
• A minimal control bar appears with a view mode toggle
• The window stays at its current size and position

Exiting Compact Mode

• Press Escape to return to the normal interface

Good to Know

• Both modes preserve your document state — nothing is lost when entering or exiting
• Compact Mode is useful for small windows or secondary displays where screen space is limited
• Focus Mode is best for longer writing sessions where you want zero distractions
