Tabs

Notes open in tabs above the editor, the way a code editor does it, and Markdown files from anywhere on your Mac share the same bar.

• Click a note in the list and it opens in the preview tab, the one with its name in italics. Your next click reuses that tab, so browsing a vault doesn't leave a row of tabs behind you.
• Start typing, or double-click the note or its tab, and the tab stays.
• ⌘-click a note to open it in a new tab. ⇧-click selects several notes (see the note list, above).
• Notes from any of your vaults and Markdown files from anywhere share one bar. Choosing a tab from another vault switches to that vault.
• Your tabs come back the next time you open TypeFire.

Keys	What they do
⌘T	New note in a new tab, like the +
⌘W	Close the tab
⌘⇧T	Reopen the last tab you closed
⌃Tab / ⌃⇧Tab	Next and previous tab
⌘1 to ⌘8	Go to that tab; ⌘9 goes to the last one
⌘⇧A	Search your open and recently closed tabs
⌘[	Back to the note a link brought you from, with the list where it was (the arrow beside Sort does the same)

Drag a tab to move it: it lifts off the bar and a marker shows where it will land. Middle-click a tab to close it. Right-click one to close the others, close the tabs to its right, open it in a window of its own or show the file in Finder. A file from outside your vaults shows a dot on its tab while it has unsaved changes, and closing it asks whether to save.

Rest the pointer on a tab to see which vault and collection the note is in, and when it was created and last changed.

The count at the end of the bar, beside the +, lists every open tab and the ones you closed recently. Type to filter them, click one to go to it, or close a tab from the list. ⌘⇧A opens it from the keyboard; change the shortcut in Settings → Shortcuts. The + makes a new note in a new tab.

Under its search, four buttons put the tabs in order once: Recent (the ones you used last first; click it again for the other way), A–Z (again for Z–A), Vault and Folder (grouped, with files from outside your vaults last). Nothing stays sorted: new tabs still open beside the one you're on, and you can drag tabs as before. The message after a sort has Undo, which puts back the order you had. Close all closes every tab, asks first about a file with unsaved changes, and its message has Undo too.

Drag a tab up or down in the list to move it; the bar follows. To keep the list in view, click the pin at the right of its search field: it becomes a sidebar on the right of the editor, the full height of the window, and it stays there in focus mode too. Drag its left edge to make it wider or narrower. While it's pinned, the count beside the + is orange; click it to unpin, and the next click opens the dropdown again. On a narrow window the pinned list steps aside until there's room.

Focus mode keeps the tab bar at the top so you can still move between notes. The tabs button in the note's header puts it away for a bare page and brings it back.

Focus mode stays on while you work. Markdown files you open from Finder arrive as new tabs inside it, and moving between notes and files keeps it on, so a stack of files reads one after another, centered in the window. The outline stays open or closed the same way for notes and files. Focus mode has no shortcut at first: set one in Settings → Shortcuts, and the focus button's tooltip shows it.
