Inspector

The Inspector is a sidebar panel on the right side of the editor. Toggle it from the toolbar button on macOS, or swipe left on the editor on iOS.

Tabs

The Inspector has five tabs, selected via a segmented control at the top:

Graph

Shows a local link graph centred on the current note. Connected notes (via wiki-links) appear as nodes. Click a node to navigate to that note.

Outline

A table of contents generated from the note's headings. Click any heading to jump to it. Useful for navigating long documents.

When the editor is hoisted on a heading, the outline narrows to just the hoisted subtree — so it doubles as a chapter-level mini-navigator while you work inside one section. Learn more about Hoist →

Platform availability

Outline is available on macOS, on iPad (both orientations), and on iPhone in landscape. On iPhone in portrait the Inspector hides the Outline tab — there isn't room to show both the outline and the editor at the same time, and a tap on a heading wouldn't have a visible editor to jump to. Rotate the iPhone to landscape to access it.

Words

Displays writing statistics:

• Word count
• Character count
• Sentence count
• Paragraph count
• Estimated reading time
• Key dates (created, modified)

Properties

Shows the note's front matter properties. You can view and edit custom properties (like status, category, etc.) that you've added to the note.

Tasks

Lists all tasks in the current note, grouped by status. Each task shows its text, due date, and priority. Click a task to jump to its location in the editor.

Collection Graph

For a full collection-wide graph (not just the current note), use Cmd+Shift+G to open the standalone Collection Graph window. This shows all notes and their wiki-link connections as an interactive force-directed graph.
