Writing articles is now easier with drag-and-drop and shortcuts. The new note editor keeps getting better!

The new note editor (beta version) is being developed for its official release while incorporating feedback from our creators.

In this update, we are introducing two new features: a new feature that allows you to move text paragraphs by dragging and dropping and additional support for keyboard shortcuts.

What is the new note editor (beta version)?
The editor is the screen you see when you edit/post an article. All creators can use the new beta editor, which includes these new features. For more details on the features, please see the following article summarizing the beta version's capabilities.

1. Move paragraphs intuitively with drag-and-drop

Previously, if you wanted to move a paragraph, you had to cut (or copy) the relevant text and paste it where you wanted it to go.

Now, you can move them by dragging and dropping! Furthermore, we have added support for keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl + Shift + Up/Down keys), enabling more intuitive operation.

[PC] You can move a paragraph by dragging the icon on the far left

As of March 10, these features are supported on the web browser version (PC) and the iOS app.

[iOS App] You can move a paragraph by long-pressing the gray vertical line (|) on the far left


2. Additional support for keyboard shortcuts

The new editor already supported keyboard shortcuts, but we have added the following 7 items. Menu selection can now be done via keyboard operation, making it easier to change text formatting (headings, bold, etc.).

※ If you are using a Mac, you can perform the same operations using the Ctrl = command (⌘) key

  1. Ctrl + Shift + 8 : Bulleted list

  2. Ctrl + Shift + 7 : Numbered list

  3. (With text selected) Tab : Move to menu

    • Tab / Shift+Tab / Arrow keys : Move within menu

    • Enter : Change menu

    • Esc : Exit menu

  4. Ctrl + Shift + Up/Down keys : Move paragraph
