Getting started
The first launch
Notr creates its database at ~/Library/Application Support/Notr/notr.db and fills it
with a sample notebook, My notebook, with three sections:
| Section | Pages |
|---|---|
| Getting started | Welcome to Notr, Weekly planning (with a table), Quick notes |
| Projects | Ideas & inspiration (dot-grid paper) |
| Personal | Reading list (a to-do) |
Change or delete the sample freely. It is an ordinary notebook.
A first note
- Click a section in the notebook pane on the left, then Add page in the page list.
- Type a title and press Return.
- Double-click anywhere on the empty paper to add a text container, and type.
- Click outside the container when you're done.
Notr saves as you go. The status bar at the bottom says Saving… and then Saved on this Mac.
Where to go next
- The window explains each part of the screen.
- Organizing notebooks covers sections, groups and subpages.
- Keyboard shortcuts lists every shortcut.
- Export a
.notespacebackup from time to time: File › Export Notebook Backup… (⇧⌘E). See Saving, importing and exporting.
