Need to reference a note while working on something else? Cue cards open your note in a separate, read-only window that stays on screen while you work.
macOS only.

Opening a Cue Card

Two ways to open one:
  • Right-click a note in your list and choose Cue Card
  • Open a note, click the … menu in the toolbar, and choose Cue Card

Using It

The window stays open while you switch between notes, and remembers its size and position. You can have multiple cue cards open at once, one per note. See Note Actions for the full list of things you can do with a note.
