The page picker has two main functions:
The page picker can be invoked by clicking the đź“” icon in the top bar, or by pressing Cmd-k
on Mac, or Ctrl-k
on Windows/Linux.
The main input is the filter phrase and can be used to narrow down the list of page results.
If the filter phrase contains #tags
the results will be filtered based on matching those tags.
note Note Any page tagged with a tag starting with
#meta
, even though technically regular pages, will not appear in the page picker. To navigate to them, use the Meta Picker instead.note Pro-tip To cycle between the three pickers Page Picker, Meta Picker and All Pages Picker, type
^
in the filter phrase box.
Pressing the Enter
key will open/create the selected page.
Pressing Shift-Enter
will always open or create (if it doesn't already exist) the page exactly matching the filter phrase.
Therefore, if you intend to create a new page, simply type the name of the new page and hit Shift-Enter
.
When no filter phrase is entered, pages are ordered by either last opened, or last modified date in descending order. This makes it convenient to switch between recently edited pages.
When entering a filter phrase, the best matches should appear closer to the top, however the second option will always be an option to create a new page with exactly the page name entered as the filter phrase.
