 ## Implementation
 
-The application is written with Python 3 (3.7+) using Qt5 and PyQt5 (5.10+). It is developed on
-Linux, but should in principle work fine on other operating systems as well as long as dependencies
-are met. It is regularly tested on Debian and Ubuntu Linux, Windows, and macOS.
-
-## Installation
-
-### Linux Mint, Ubuntu and Debian
-
-The Releases page has a `.deb` package that should install on Mint, Ubuntu and Debian.
-
-You can also use the novelWriter [PPA](https://launchpad.net/~vkbo/+archive/ubuntu/novelwriter).
-For more details, check the [Getting Started](https://novelwriter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/int_started.html)
-section in the documentation.
-
-### Windows 10+
-
-The Release page has a `setup.exe` file for Windows 10, that should also work on other Windows
-versions. The installer includes Python 3.10 and the library dependencies.
-
-### Other Install Options
-
-You can also download and install one of the minimal zip files from the
-[Releases](https://github.com/vkbo/novelWriter/releases) page or the
-[novelwriter.io](https://novelwriter.io/) website.
-The [Getting Started](https://novelwriter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/int_started.html) section of the
-documentation has detailed install instructions for these packages, and for installation via the
-Python Package Index.
+novelWriter is written with Python 3 (3.8+) using Qt5 and PyQt5 (5.10+), and is released on Linux,
+Windows and macOS. It can in principle run on any Operating System that also supports Qt, PyQt and
+Python.

-## Key Features
-
-Some key features of novelWriter are listed below. The
-[documentation](https://novelwriter.readthedocs.io) has a lot more information.
-
-### Formatting Codes
-
-Although novelWriter is a plain text editor, it uses a Markdown-like syntax to allow for a minimal
-set of formatting that is useful for the specific task of writing novels.
-
-| Code       | Usage    | Description |
-|------------|----------|-------------|
-| `#`        | Prefix   | Headings level 1 to 4. |
-| `_`        | Wrapped  | Emphasised (italicised) text. |
-| `**`       | Wrapped  | Strongly emphasised (bold) text. |
-| `~~`       | Wrapped  | Strikethrough text. |
-| `%`        | Prefix   | A comment; does not count towards the word count.<sup>1</sup> |
-| `@`        | Prefix   | The following text is parsed as a keyword/value command for meta data. |
-| `>`        | Prefix   | The paragraph is indented one tab width from the left. |
-| `<`        | Suffix   | The paragraph is indented one tab width from the right. |
-| `>>`       | Prefix   | The paragraph is right-aligned. |
-| `<<`       | Suffix   | The paragraph is left-aligned. |
-| `>>`, `<<` | Wrapped  | The paragraph is centred. |
-
-<sup>1</sup> If the first word of the comment is `synopsis:`, the comment is indexed and treated as
-the synopsis for the section of text where it occurs. These synopsis comments can be used to build
-an outline and exported to external documents.
-
-### Export Formats
-
-The core export formats of novelWriter are Open Document and HTML5. Open Document is an open
-standard for office type documents that is supported by most office applications. See
-[Open Document > Application Support](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument#Application_support)
-for more details.
-
-You can also export the entire project as a single novelWriter-markup document. These can later be
-imported again into novelWriter. In addition, printing and export to PDF is offered through the Qt
-library, although with limitations to formatting.
-
-### Colour Themes
-
-The editor has syntax highlighting for the features it supports, and includes a set of different
-syntax highlighting themes. Optional GUI themes are also available, including dark themes.
-
-### Easy Organising of Project Files
-
-The structure of the project is shown on the left hand side of the main window. Project files are
-organised into root folders, indicating what class of file they are. The most important root folder
-is the `Novel` folder, which contains all of the files that make up the novel itself. Each root
-folder can have subfolders. Subfolders have no impact on the final project structure, they are
-there for you to organise your files in whatever way you want.
-
-The editor supports four levels of headings, which determine what level the following text belongs
-to. Headings of level one signify a book or partition title. Headings of level two signify the
-start of a new chapter. Headings of level three signify the start of a new scene. Headings of level
-four can be used internally in each scene to create separate sections.
-
-See the [documentation](https://novelwriter.readthedocs.io) for further details.
-
-### Project Notes
-
-Supporting notes can be added for the story plot, characters, locations, story timeline, etc. These
-have their separate root folders and are optional to use.
-
-### Visualisation of Story Elements
-
-The different notes can be assigned tags, which other files can refer back to using `@`-prefixed
-meta keywords. This information can be used to display an outline of the story, showing where each
-scene connects to the plot, and which characters, etc. occur in them. In addition, the tags
-themselves are clickable in the document view pane, and control-clickable in the editor. They make
-it possible to quickly navigate between the documents while writing.
-
-## Installing or Running from Source
-
-If you want to run novelWriter directly from the source code, you must run the `novelWriter.py`
-file from command line.
-
-Dependencies can generally be installed from PyPi with:
-```bash
-pip install -r requirements.txt
-```
-
-On Linux, the dependencies are generally available in the standard package repository.
-
-For more details on running or installing from source, see
-[Other Setup Methods](https://novelwriter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup_other.html).
-
-## Debugging
-
-If you need to debug novelWriter, you must run it from the command line. It takes a few parameters,
-which can be listed with the switch `--help`. The `--info`, `--debug` or `--verbose` flags are
-particularly useful for increasing logging output for debugging.

+
+   Root Folder
+      A "Root Folder" is a top level folder of the project tree in novelWriter. Each type of root
+      folder has a specific icon to identify it. For an overview of available root folder types,
+      see :ref:`a_proj_roots`.
+
+   Novel Documents
+      These are documents that are created under a "Novel" :term:`root folder`. They behave
+      differently than :term:`Project Notes`, and have some more restrictions. For instance, they
+      can not exist in folders intended only for project notes. See the :ref:`a_struct` chapter for
+      more details.
+
+   Project Notes
+      Project Notes are unrestricted documents that can be placed anywhere in your project. You
+      should not use these documents for story elements, only for notes. Project notes are the
+      source files used by the Tags and References system. See the :ref:`a_references` chapter for
+      more details on how to use them.
+
+   Tag
+      A tag is a user defined value assigned as a tag to a section of your :term:`Project Notes`.
+      It is optional, and can be defined once per heading. It is set using the :term:`keyword`
+      syntax ``@tag: value``, where ``value`` is the user defined part. Each tag can be referenced
+      in another file using one of the :term:`reference` keywords. See :ref:`a_references` chapter
+      for more details.
+
+   Reference
+      A reference is one of a set of :term:`keywords<keyword>` that can be used to link to a
+      :term:`tag` in another document. The reference keywords are specific to the different
+      :term:`root folder` types. A full overview is available in the :ref:`a_references` chapter.
+
+   Project Index
+      The project index is a record of all headings in a project, with all their meta data like
+      synopsis comments, :term:`tags<tag>` and :term:`references<reference>`. The project index is
+      kept up to date automatically, but can also be regenerated manually from the
+      :guilabel:`Tools` menu or by pressing :kbd:`F9`.
+
+   Context Menu
+      A context menu is a menu that pops up when you right click something in the user interface.
+      In novelWriter, you can often also open a context menu by pressing the keyboard shortcut
+      :kbd:`Ctrl+.`.
+
+   Headings
+      Each level of headings in :term:`Novel Documents` have a specific meaning in terms of the
+      structure of the story. That is, they determine what novelWriter considers a partition, a
+      chapter, a scene or a text section. For :term:`Project Notes`, the header levels don't
+      matter. For more details on headings in novel documents, see :ref:`a_struct_heads`.
+
+   Keyword
+      A keyword in novelWriter is a special command you put in the text of your documents. They are
+      not standard Markdown, but are used in novelWriter to add information that is interpreted by
+      the application. For instance, keywords are used for :term:`tags<tag>` and
+      :term:`references<reference>`.
+
+      Keywords must always be on their own line, and the first character of the line must always be
+      the ``@`` character. The keyword must also always be followed by a ``:`` character, and the
+      values passed to the command are added after this, separated by commas.

+   This section will be expanded over time. If you would like to have something added, feel free to
+   contribute, or start a discussion on the project's `Discussions Page`_.
+
+
+Managing the Project
+====================
+
+.. dropdown:: Merge Multiple Documents Into One
+   :animate: fade-in-slide-down
+
+   If you need to merge a set of documents in your project into a single document, you can achieve
+   this by first making a new folder for just that purpose, and drag all the files you want merged
+   into this folder. Then you can right click the folder, select :guilabel:`Transform` and
+   :guilabel:`Merge Documents in Folder`.
+
+   In the dialog that pops up, the documents will be in the same order as in the folder, but you
+   can also rearrange them here of you wish. See :ref:`a_ui_tree_split_merge` for more details.
+
+
+Layout Tricks
+=============
+
+.. dropdown:: Create a Simple Table
+   :animate: fade-in-slide-down
+
+   The formatting tools available in novelWriter don't allow for complex structures like tables.
+   However, the editor does render tabs in a similar way that regular word processors do. You can
+   set the width of a tab in :guilabel:`Preferences`.
+
+   The tab key should have the same distance in the editor as in the viewer, so you can align text
+   in columns using the tab key, and it should look the same when viewed next to the editor.
+
+   This is most suitable for your notes, as the result in exported documents cannot be guaranteed
+   to match.
+
+
+Organising Your Text
+====================
+
+.. dropdown:: Add Introductory Text to Chapters
+   :animate: fade-in-slide-down
+
+   Sometimes chapters have a short preface, like a brief piece of text or a quote to set the stage
+   before the first scene begins.
+
+   If you add separate files for chapters and scenes, the chapter file is the perfect place to add
+   such text. Separating chapter and scene files also allows you to make scene files child
+   documents of the chapter (added in novelWriter 2.0).
+
+.. dropdown:: Distinguishing Soft and Hard Scene Breaks
+   :animate: fade-in-slide-down
+
+   Depending on your writing style, you may need to separate between soft and hard scene breaks
+   within chapters. Like for instance if you switch point-of-view character often.
+
+   In such cases you may want to use the scene heading for hard scene breaks and section headings
+   for soft scene breaks. the :guilabel:`Build Manuscript` tool will let you add separate
+   formatting for the two when you generate your manuscript. You can for instance add the common
+   "``* * *``" for hard breaks and select to hide section breaks, which will just insert an empty
+   paragraph in their place. See :ref:`a_manuscript_settings` for more details.
+
+
+Other Tools
+===========
+
+.. dropdown:: Convert Project to/from yWriter Format
+   :animate: fade-in-slide-down
+
+   There is a tool available that lets you convert a `yWriter <http://spacejock.com/yWriter7.html>`_
+   project to a novelWriter project, and vice versa.

 Below are some key features of novelWriter.
 
 **Focus on writing**
-   The aim of the user interface is to let the user focus on writing instead of spending time
-   formatting text. Formatting is therefore limited to a small set of formatting tags for simple
-   things like text emphasis and paragraph alignment. When you really want to focus on just
-   writing, you can switch the editor into :guilabel:`Focus Mode` where only the text editor window
-   itself is vissible.

+   text emphasis and paragraph alignment. When you really want to focus on just writing, you can
+   switch the editor into :guilabel:`Focus Mode` where only the text editor panel itself is

 **Keep an eye on your notes**

+   other document you may need to reference while writing. It is not intended as a preview panel
+   for the document you're editing, but if you wish, you can also use it for this purpose.
 
 **Organise your documents how you like**
    You can split your novel project up into as many individual documents as you want to. When you
-   build the project, they are all glued together in the top-to-bottom order in which they appear
-   in the project tree. You can use as few text documents as you like, but splitting the project up

 **Keep track of your plot elements**
-   All notes in your project can be assigned a *tag* you can *reference* from any other document or

-
-Header Formatting
-=================
-
-The titles for the five types of headings (the chapter headings come in a numbered and unnumbered
-version) of story structure can be formatted collectively in the build tool. This is done through
-a series of keyword–replace steps. They are all on the format ``%keyword%``.
-
-``%title%``
-   This keyword will always be replaced with the title text you put after the ``#`` characters in
-   your document.
-
-``%ch%``
-   This will be replaced by a chapter number. The number is incremented by one each time the build
-   tool sees a new heading of level two in a document, unless the heading formatting code has the
-   added ``!``. In the latter case, the counter is *not* incremented. This is useful for for
-   instance Prologue and Epilogue chapters.
-
-``%chw%``
-   Behaves like ``%ch%``, but the number is represented as a number word. You can select between a
-   number of different languages.
-
-``%chi%``
-   Begaves like ``%ch%``, but represented as a lower case Roman number from 1 to 4999.
-
-``%chI%``
-   Behaves like ``%ch%``, but represented as an upper case Roman number from 1 to 4999.
-
-``%sc%``
-   This is the number counter equivalent for scenes. These are incremented each time a heading of
-   level three is encountered, but reset to 1 each time a chapter is encountered. They can thus be
-   used for counting scenes within a chapter.
-
-``%sca%``
-   Behaves like ``%sc%``, but the number is *not* reset to 1 for each chapter. Instead it runs from
-   1 from the beginning of the novel to produce an absolute scene count.
-
-``\\``
-   This inserts a line break within the title.
-
-.. note::
-   Header formatting only applies to novel documents. Headings in notes will be left as-is.
-
-**Example**
-
-* The format ``%title%`` just reproduces the title you set in the document.
-* The format ``Chapter %ch%: %title%`` produces something like "Chapter 1: My Chapter Title".
-* The format ``Scene %ch%.%sc%`` produces something like "Scene 1.2" for scene 2 in chapter 1.
-
-
-.. _a_export_scenes:
-
-Scene Separators
-================
-
-If you don't want any titles for your scenes (or for your sections if you have them), you can leave
-the formatting boxes empty. If so, an empty paragraph will be inserted between the scenes or
-sections instead, resulting in a gap in the text.
-
-Alternatively, if you want a separator between them, like the common ``* * *``, you can enter the
-desired separator text in the formatting box. In fact, if the format is a piece of static text, it
-will always be treated as a separator.
-

-==============
-
-Which documents and notes are selected for the build can be controlled from the options on the left
-side of the dialog window. In addition, you can select to include the synopsis comments, regular
-comments, keywords, and even exclude the body text itself if you just want an outline.
-
-.. tip::
-   If you for instance want to export a document with an outline of the novel, you can enable
-   keywords and synopsis export and disable body text, thus getting a document with each heading
-   followed by the tags and references and the synopsis.
-
-If you need to exclude specific documents from your exports, like draft documents or documents you
-want to take out of your manuscript, but don't want to delete, you can set the documents as

+***********************
+Building the Manuscript
+***********************
+
+You can at any time build a manuscript, an outline of your notes, or any other type of document
+from the text in your project. All of this is handled by the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` tool.
+You can activate it from the sidebar, the :guilabel:`Tools` menu, or by pressing :kbd:`F5`.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.1
+   This tool is new for version 2.1. A simpler tool was used for earlier versions. The simpler tool
+   only allows you to define a single set of options for the build, but otherwise has much the same
+   functionality.
+
+
+.. _a_manuscript_main:
+
+The Manuscript Build Tool
+=========================
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_manuscript_build.png
+
+   The :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` tool main window.
+
+The main window of the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` tool contains a list of all the builds you have
+defined, a selection of settings, and a few buttons to generate preview, open the print dialog, or
+run the build to create a manuscript document.
+
+
+.. _a_manuscript_settings:
+
+Build Settings
+==============
+
+Each build definition can be edited by opening it in the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build Settings`
+dialog, either by double-clicking or by selecting it and pressing the edit button in the toolbar.
+
+.. tip::
+   You can keep the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build Settings` dialog open while testing the different
+   options, and just hit the :guilabel:`Apply` button. You can test the result of your settings
+   by pressing the :guilabel:`Preview` button in the main :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` window.
+   When you're happy with the result, you can close the settings.
+
+
+Document Selection
+------------------
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_build_settings_selections.png
+
+   The :guilabel:`Selections` page of the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build Settings` dialog.
+
+The :guilabel:`Selections` page of the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build Settings` dialog allows you to
+fine tune which documents are included in the build. They are indicated by a green arrow icon in
+the last column. On the right you have some filter options for selecting content of a specific
+type, and a set of switches for which root folders to include.
+
+You can override the result of these filters by marking one or more documents and selecting to
+explicitly include or exclude them by using the buttons below the tree view. The last button can be
+used to reset the override and return control to the filter settings.
+
+In the figure, the green arrow icon and the blue pin icon indicates which documents are included,
+and the red forbidden icon indicates that a document is explicitly excluded.
+
+
+Formatting Headings
+-------------------
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_build_settings_headings.png
+
+   The :guilabel:`Headings` page of the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build Settings` dialog.
+
+The :guilabel:`Headings` page of the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build Settings` dialog allows you to set
+how the headings in your :term:`Novel Documents` are formatted. By default, the title is just
+copied as-is, indicated by the ``{Title}`` format. You can change this to for instance add chapter
+numbers and scene numbers like shown int he figure above.
+
+Clicking the edit button next to a format will copy the formatting string into the edit box where
+it can be modified, and where a syntax highlighter will help indicate which parts are automatically
+generated by the build tool. The :guilabel:`Insert` button is a dropdown list of these formats, and
+selecting one will insert it at the position of the cursor.
+
+Any text you add that isn't highlighted in colours will remain in your formatted titles.
+``{Title}`` will always be replaced by the text in the heading from your documents.
+
+You can preview the result of these format strings by clicking :guilabel:`Apply`, and then clicking
+:guilabel:`Preview` in the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` tool main window.
+
+Scene Separators
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If you don't want any titles for your scenes (or for your sections if you have them), you can leave
+the formatting boxes empty. If so, an empty paragraph will be inserted between the scenes or
+sections instead, resulting in a gap in the text. You can also switch on the :guilabel:`Hide`
+setting, which will ignore them completely. That is, there won't even be an extra gap inserted.
+
+Alternatively, if you want a separator text between them, like the common ``* * *``, you can enter
+the desired separator text as the format. If the format is any piece of static text, it will always
+be treated as a separator.
+
+
+Output Settings
+---------------
+
+The :guilabel:`Content`, :guilabel:`Format` and :guilabel:`Output` pages of the
+:guilabel:`Manuscript Build Settings` dialog control a number of other settings for the output.
+Some of these only apply to specific output formats, which is indicated by the section headings on
+the settings pages.

+
+Building Manuscript Documents
+=============================
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_build_build.png
+
+   The :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` dialog used for writing the actual manuscript documents.
+
+When you press the :guilabel:`Build` button on the :guilabel:`Build Manuscript` tool main window, a
+special file dialog opens up. This is where you pick your desired output format and where to write
+the file.
+
+On the left side of the dialog is a list of all the available file formats, and on the right, a
+list of the documents which are included based on the build definition you selected. You can choose
+an output path, and set a base file name as well. The file extension will be added automatically.
+
+To generate the manuscript document, press the :guilabel:`Build` button. A small progress bar will
+show the build progress, but for small projects it may pass very fast.
+
+
+File Formats
+------------
+
+Currently, four document formats are supported.
+
+Open Document Format
+   The Build tool can produce either an ``.odt`` file, or an ``.fodt`` file. The latter is just a
+   flat version of the document format as a single XML file. Most rich text editors support the
+   former, and only a few the latter.
+
+novelWriter HTML
+   The HTML format writes a single ``.htm`` file with minimal style formatting. The HTML document
+   is suitable for further processing by document conversion tools like Pandoc, for importing in
+   word processors, or for printing from browser.
+
+novelWriter Markup
+   This is simply a concatenation of the project documents selected by the filters into a ``.txt``
+   file. The documents are stacked together in the order they appear in the project tree, with
+   comments, tags, etc. included if they are selected. This is a useful format for exporting the
+   project for later import back into novelWriter.
+
+Standard/Extended Markdown
+   The Markdown format comes in both Standard and Extended flavour. The *only* difference in terms
+   of novelWriter functionality is the support for strikethrough text, which is not supported by
+   the Standard flavour.
+
+
+Additional Formats
+------------------
+
+In addition to the above document formats, the novelWriter HTML and Markup formats can also be
+wrapped in a JSON file. These files will have a meta data entry and a body entry. For HTML, also
+the accompanying CSS styles used by the preview are included.
+
+The text body is saved in a two-level list. The outer list contains one entry per document, in the
+order they appear in the project tree. Each document is then split up into a list as well, with one
+entry per paragraph it contains.
+
+These files are mainly intended for scripted post-processing for those who want that option. A JSON
+file can be imported directly into a Python dict object or a PHP array, to mentions a few options.
+
+
+.. _a_manuscript_print:
+
+Print and PDF
+=============
+
+The :guilabel:`Print` button allows you to print the content in the preview window. You can either
+print to one of your system's printers, or select PDF as your output format from the printer icon
+on the print dialog.
+
+.. note::
+   The paper format should in all cases default to whatever your system default is. If you want to

-Project Notes
-*************
-
-novelWriter doesn't have a database and complicated forms for filling in details about plot
-elements, characters, and all sorts of additional information that isn't a part of the novel text
-itself. Instead, all such information is saved in notes that are written and maintained just like
-all other text in your project.
-
-The relation between all these additional elements is extracted from the documents and notes by the
-project indexer, based on the tags and references you set within them.
-
-Using notes is not required, but making at least minimal notes for each plot element, and adding a
-tag to them, makes it possible to use the Outline View to see how each element intersects with each
-section of the novel itself, and adds clickable cross-references between documents in the editor
-and viewer.
-
-
-.. _a_notes_tags:
-
-Tags in Notes
-=============
-
-Each new heading in a note can have a tag associated with it. The format of a tag is
-``@tag: tagname``, where tagname is a unique identifier of your choosing. Tags can then be
-referenced in the novel documents, or cross-referenced in other notes, and will show up in the
-Outline View and in the back-reference panel when a document is opened in the viewer. See
-:ref:`a_struct_tags` for how to reference notes.
-
-The syntax highlighter will alert the user that the keyword is correctly used and that the tag is
-allowed, that is, the tag is unique. Duplicate tags should be detected as long as the index is up
-to date. An invalid tag should have a green wiggly line under it, and will not receive the syntax
-colour that valid tags do.
-
-The tag is the only part of these notes that the application uses. The rest of the document content
-is there for the writer to use in whatever way they wish. Of course, the content of the documents
-can be added to the manuscript, or an outline document. If you want to compile a single document of
-all your notes, you can do this from the :guilabel:`Build Novel Project` tool.
-
-One note can also reference another note in the same way novel documents do. When the note is
-opened in the view panel, the references become clickable links, making it easier to follow
-connections in the plot. Notes don't show up in the Outline View though, so referencing between
-notes is only meaningful if you want to be able to click-navigate between them, or of course if you
-just want to highlight that two notes are related.
-
-.. tip::
-   If you cross-reference between notes and export your project as an HTML document using the
-   :guilabel:`Build Novel Project` tool, the cross-references become clickable links in the
-   exported HTML document.

+*******************
+Tags and References
+*******************
+
+In novelWriter there are no forms or tables to fill in to define the characters, locations and
+other elements of your story. Instead, you can mark your :term:`project notes` as representing
+these story elements by creating a :term:`tag`. Whenever you want to link a piece of your story to
+a note defining a story element, like a character, you create a :term:`reference` back to that tag.
+You can also cross-link your project notes in the same way.
+
+This is perhaps one of the features that makes novelWriter different from other, similar
+applications. It is therefore not always obvious to new users how this is supposed to work, so
+this chapter hopes to explains in more detail how to use the tags and references system.
+
+.. tip::
+   If you find the Tags and Reference system difficult to follow just from reading this chapter,
+   you can create a new project in novelWriter and select to "Fill the project with example files"
+   in the :guilabel:`New Project Wizard`. The example project contains several examples of tags and
+   references.
+
+
+.. _a_references_metadata:
+
+Metadata in novelWriter
+=======================
+
+The structure of your novelWriter project is inferred from the :term:`headings` within the
+documents, not the documents themselves. See :ref:`a_struct_heads` for more details. Therefore,
+metadata is also associated with headings, and not the documents directly.
+
+If you split your project into separate documents for each scene, this distinction may not matter.
+However, there are several benefits to using documents at a larger structural scale when starting
+your project. For instance, it may make more sense to define all your scenes, and even chapters, in
+a single document at first, or perhaps a document per act. You can later split these documents up
+using the document split feature. See :ref:`a_ui_tree_split_merge` for more details.
+
+The implication here is that you can treat each heading as an independent element of your notes
+that can be referenced somewhere else. In order to make it possible to reference a header section,
+you need to assign it a tag.
+
+
+.. _a_references_tags:
+
+How to Use Tags
+===============
+
+A "tag" in novelWriter is a word or phrase that you define as belonging to a heading. Tags are set
+by using the ``@tags`` :term:`keyword`. The full format of a tag is ``@tag: tagname``, where
+``tagname`` is an identifier of your choosing. You can only set *one* tag per heading, and the tag
+has to be unique across all documents in the project.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+   Tags are now case insensitive.
+
+After the tags have been defined, they can then be referenced in the novel documents, or
+cross-referenced in other notes. they will also show up in the :guilabel:`Outline View` and in the
+back-reference panel when a document is opened in the viewer.
+
+The syntax highlighter will indicate to you that the keyword is correctly used and that the tag is
+allowed, that is, the tag is unique. Duplicate tags should be detected as long as the index is up
+to date. An invalid tag should have a green wiggly line under it, and will not receive the syntax
+colour that valid tags do.
+
+The tag is the only part of these notes that novelWriter uses. The rest of the document content is
+there for you to use in whatever way you wish. Of course, the content of the documents can be added
+to the manuscript, or an outline document. If you want to compile a single document of all your
+notes, you can do this from the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` tool.
+
+Example of a heading with a tag for a character of the story:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+   # Jane Doe
+
+   @tag: Jane
+
+   Some information about the character Jane Doe.
+
+When this is done in a document in a :term:`Root Folder` of type "Characters", the tag is
+automatically treated as an available character in your project, and you will be able to reference
+it in any of your other documents using the reference keywords for characters. It will also show up
+in the Character tab in the Reference panel below the document viewer, and in the reference
+auto-completer menu in the editor when you fill in references. See :ref:`a_ui_view` and
+:ref:`a_references_completer`.
+
+It is the root folder type that defines what category of story elements the tag is indexed under.
+See the :ref:`a_proj_roots` section for an overview of available root folder types. They are also
+covered in the next section.
+
+
+.. _a_references_references:
+
+How to Use References
+=====================
+
+Each heading of any level in your project can contain references to tags set in project notes. The
+references are gathered by the indexer and used to generate the :guilabel:`Outline View`, among
+other things.
+
+References are set as a :term:`keyword` and a list of corresponding tags. The valid keywords are
+listed below. The format of a reference line is ``@keyword: value1, [value2] ... [valueN]``. All
+reference keywords allow multiple values.
+
+``@pov``
+   The point-of-view character for the current section. The target must be a note tag in a
+   :guilabel:`Character` type root folder.
+
+``@focus``
+   The character that has the focus for the current section. This can be used in cases where the
+   focus is not a point-of-view character. The target must be a note tag in a :guilabel:`Character`
+   type root folder.
+
+``@char``
+   Other characters in the current section. The target must be a note tag in a
+   :guilabel:`Character` type root folder. This should not include the point-of-view or focus
+   character if those references are used.
+
+``@plot``
+   The plot or subplot advanced in the current section. The target must be a note tag in a
+   :guilabel:`Plot` type root folder.
+
+``@time``
+   The timelines touched by the current section. The target must be a note tag in a
+   :guilabel:`Timeline` type root folder.
+
+``@location``
+   The location the current section takes place in. The target must be a note tag in a
+   :guilabel:`Locations` type root folder.
+
+``@object``
+   Objects present in the current section. The target must be a note tag in a :guilabel:`Object`
+   type root folder.
+
+``@entity``
+   Entities present in the current section. The target must be a note tag in a
+   :guilabel:`Entities` type root folder.
+
+``@custom``
+   Custom references in the current section. The target must be a note tag in a :guilabel:`Custom`
+   type root folder. The custom folder are for any other category of notes you may want to use.
+
+The syntax highlighter will alert the user that the tags and references are used correctly, and
+that the tags referenced exist.
+
+.. note::
+   The highlighter may be mistaken if the index of defined tags is out of date. If so, press
+   :kbd:`F9` to regenerate it, or select :guilabel:`Rebuild Index` from the :guilabel:`Tools` menu.
+   In general, the index for a document is regenerated when it is saved, so this shouldn't normally
+   be necessary.
+
+.. tip::
+   If you add a reference in the editor to a tag that doesn't yet exist, you can right-click it and
+   select :guilabel:`Create Note for Tag`. This will generate a new project note automatically with
+   the new tag defined. In order for this to be possible, a root folder for that category of
+   references must already exist.
+
+One note can also reference another note in the same way novel documents do. When the note is
+opened in the document viewer, the references become clickable links, making it easier to follow
+connections in the plot. You can follow links in the document editor by clicking them with the
+mouse while holding down the :kbd:`Ctrl` key. Clicked links are always opened in the view panel.
+
+Project notes don't show up in the :guilabel:`Outline View`, so referencing between notes is only
+meaningful if you want to be able to click-navigate between them, or of course if you just want to
+highlight that two notes are related.
+
+.. tip::
+   If you cross-reference between notes and export your project as an HTML document using the
+   :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` tool, the cross-references become clickable links in the exported
+   HTML document as well.
+
+Example of a novel document with references to characters and plots:
+
+.. code-block:: none

+after the ``:`` has been added, suggest references from the list of tags you have already defined.

-
-**Column 1**
-   The first column shows the icon and label of each folder, document, or note in your project. The
-   label is not the same as the title you set inside the document. However, the document's label
-   will appear in the header above the document text itself so you know where in the project an
-   open document belongs. The icon is selected based on the type of item, and for novel documents,
-   the level of the first header in the document text.
-
-**Column 2**
-   The second column shows the word count of the document, or the sum of words of the child items
-   for folders and documents with subdocuments. If the counts seem incorrect, they can be updated
-   by rebuilding the project index from the :guilabel:`Tools` menu, or by pressing :kbd:`F9`.
-
-**Column 3**
-   The third column indicates whether the document is considered active or inactive in the project.
-   You can use this flag to indicate that a document is still in the project, but should not be
-   considered an active part of it. When you run the :guilabel:`Build Novel Project` tool, you can
-   filter based on this flag. You can change this value from the context menu.
-
-**Column 4**
-   The fourth column shows the user-defined status or importance labels you've assigned to each
-   project item. See :ref:`a_ui_tree_status` for more details. You can change these labels from the
-   context menu.
-
-Right-clicking an item in the project tree will open a context menu under the cursor, displaying
-a selection of actions that can be performed on the selected item.
-
-At the top of the tree, you will find a set of buttons.
-
-* The first button is a quick links button that will show you a dropdown menu of all the root 
-  folders in your project. Selecting one will move to that position in the tree. You can also
-  activate this menu by pressing :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`L`.
-* The next two buttons can be used to move items up and down in the project tree. This is the only 
-  way to move root folders.
-* The next button opens a dropdown menu for adding new items to the tree. This includes root 
-  folders. You can also activate this dropdown menu by pressing :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`N`.
-* The last button is a menu of further actions on the entire project tree.

-   Under the :guilabel:`Transform` submenu in the context menu of an item, you will find several
-   options on how to change a document or folder. This includes changing between document and note,

-The Novel Tree
---------------
-
-An alternative way to view the project structure is the novel tree. You can switch to this view by
-selecting the :guilabel:`Novel Tree View` button in the sidebar. This view is a simplified version
-of the view in the :guilabel:`Outline`. It is convenient when you want to browse the structure of
-the story itself rather than the document files.
-
-.. note::
-   You cannot reorganise the entries in the novel tree, or add any new documents, as that would
-   imply restructuring the content of the document files. Any editing must be done in the project
-   tree. However, you can add new headings to existing documents, or change references, which will
-   be updated in this view.
-
-
-.. _a_ui_tree_status:
-
-Document Importance and Status
-------------------------------
-
-Each document or folder in your project can have either a "Status" or "Importance" flag set. These
-are flags that you control and define yourself. The app doesn't do anything with them at all. To
-modify the labels, go to their respective tabs in :guilabel:`Project Settings`.
-
-The "Status" flag is intended to tag a Novel document as for instance a draft or as completed, and
-the "Importance" flag is intended to tag character notes, or other notes, as for instance a main,
-major or minor character.
-
-Whether a document uses a "Status" or "Importance" flag depends on which root folder it lives in.
-If it's in the :guilabel:`Novel` folder, it uses the "Status" flag, otherwise it uses an
-"Importance" flag. Some folders, like :guilabel:`Trash` and :guilabel:`Archive` allow both.

-Project Tree Drag & Drop
-------------------------
-
-The project tree allows drag & drop to a certain extent to allow you to reorder your documents and
-folders. Moving a document in the project tree will affect the text's position when you assemble
-your manuscript in the build tool.
-
-Drag & drop has only limited support for moving documents. In general, bulk actions are not
-allowed. This is deliberate to avoid accidentally messing up your project. If you make a mistake,
-the last move action can be undone by pressing :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`Shift`:kbd:`Z`.
-
-Documents and their folders can be rearranged freely within their root folders. If you move a Novel
-documents out of a Novel folder, it will be converted to a project note. Notes can be moved freely
-between all root folders, but keep in mind that if you move a note into a :guilabel:`Novel` root
-folder, its "Importance" setting will be switched with a "Status" setting. See
-:ref:`a_ui_tree_status`. The old value will not be overwritten though, and should be restored if
-you move it back at some point.
-
-Root folders in the project tree cannot be dragged & dropped at all. If you want to reorder them,
-you can move them up or down with respect to eachother from the arrow buttons at the top of the

-open it in the viewer.
-
-The document viewed does not have to be the same document as currently being edited. However, If
-you *are* viewing the same document, pressing :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`R` again will update the document
-with your latest changes. You can also press the reload button in the top–right corner of the view
-panel, next to the close button, to achieve the same thing.
-
-Both the document editor and viewer will show the label of the document in the header at the top of
-the edit or view panel. Optionally, the full project path to the document can be shown. This can be
-set in :guilabel:`Preferences`.
-
-.. tip::
-   Clicking on the document title bar will select the document in the project tree and reveal its
-   location, making it easier to locate in a large project.
-
-Any tag reference in the editor can be opened in the viewer by moving the cursor to the label and
-pressing :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`Return`. You can also control-click them with your mouse. In the viewer,
-the references become clickable links. Clicking them will replace the content of the viewer with
-the content of the document the reference points to.
-
-The document viewer keeps a history of viewed documents, which you can navigate with the arrow
-buttons in the top–left corner of the viewer. If your mouse has backward and forward navigation
-buttons, these can be used as well. They work just like the backward and forward features in a
-browser.
-
-At the bottom of the view panel there is a :guilabel:`References` panel. (If it is hidden, click
-the icon to reveal it.) This panel will show links to all documents referring back to the one
-you're currently viewing, if any has been defined. The :guilabel:`Sticky` button will freeze the
-content of the panel to the current document, even if you navigate to another document. This is
-convenient if you want to quickly look through all documents in the list in the
-:guilabel:`References` panel without losing the list in the process.
-
-.. note::
-   The :guilabel:`References` panel relies on an up-to-date index of the project. The index is
-   maintained automatically. However, if anything is missing, or seems wrong, the index can always
-   be rebuilt by selecting :guilabel:`Rebuild Index` from the :guilabel:`Tools` menu, or by
-   pressing :kbd:`F9`.
-
-
-.. _a_ui_edit_search:
-
-Search & Replace
-----------------
-
-The document editor has a search and replace tool that can be activated with :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`F`
-for search mode or :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`H` for search and replace mode.
-
-Pressing :kbd:`Return` while in the search box will search for the next occurrence of the word, and
-:kbd:`Shift`:kbd:`Return` for the previous. Pressing :kbd:`Return` in the replace box, will replace
-the highlighted text and move to the next result.
-
-There are a number of settings for the search tool available as toggle switches above the search
-box. They allow you to search for, in order: matched case only, whole word results only, search
-using regular expressions, loop search when reaching the end of the document, and move to the next
-document when reaching the end. There is also a switch that will try to match the case of the word
-when the replacement is made. That is, it will try to keep the word upper, lower, or capitalised to
-match the word being replaced.
-
-The regular expression search is somewhat dependant on which version of Qt your system has. If you
-have Qt 5.13 or higher, there is better support for unicode symbols in the search.
-
-
-.. _a_ui_edit_auto:
-
-Auto-Replace as You Type
-========================
-
-A few auto-replace features are supported by the editor. You can control every aspect of the
-auto-replace feature from :guilabel:`Preferences`. You can also disable this feature entirely if
-you wish.
-
-.. tip::
-   If you don't like auto-replacement, all symbols inserted by this feature are also available in
-   the :guilabel:`Insert` menu, and via convenient :ref:`a_kb_ins`. You may also be using a
-   `Compose Key`_ setup, which means you may not need the auto-replace feature.
-
-The editor is able to replace two and three hyphens with short and long dashes, triple points with
-ellipsis, and replace straight single and double quotes with user-defined quote symbols. It will
-also try to determine whether to use the opening or closing symbol, although this feature isn't
-always accurate. Especially distinguishing between closing single quote and apostrophe can be
-tricky for languages that use the same symbol for these, like English does.
-
-.. tip::
-   If the auto-replace feature changes a symbol when you did not want it to change, pressing
-   :kbd:`Ctrl`:kbd:`Z` immediately after the auto-replacement will undo it without undoing the
-   character you typed.
-
-
-.. _a_ui_outline:
-
-Project Outline View
-====================
-
-The project's Outline view is available as another view option from the views bar. The outline
-provides an overview of the novel structure, displaying a tree hierarchy of the elements of the
-novel, that is, the level 1 to 4 headings representing partitions, chapters, scenes and sections.
-
-The document containing the heading can also be displayed as a separate column, as well as the line
-number where it occurs. Double-clicking an entry will open the corresponding document in the
-editor.
-
-You can select which novel folder to display from the dropdown menu. You can optionally also choose
-to show a combination of all novel folders.
-
-.. note::
-   Since the internal structure of the novel does not depend directly on the folder and document
-   structure of the project tree, these will not necessarily look the same, depending on how you
-   choose to organise your documents. See the :ref:`a_struct` page for more details.
-
-Various meta data and information extracted from tags can be displayed in columns in the outline.
-A default set of such columns is visible, but you can turn on or off more columns from the menu
-button in the toolbar. The order of the columns can also be rearranged by dragging them to a
-different position. You column settings are saved between sessions on a per-project basis.
-
-.. note::
-   The :guilabel:`Title` column cannot be disabled or moved.
-
-The information viewed in the outline is based on the project's main index. While novelWriter does
-its best to keep the index up to date when contents change, you can always rebuild it manually by
-pressing :kbd:`F9` if something isn't right.
-
-The outline view itself can be regenerated by pressing the refresh button. By default, the content
-is refreshed each time you switch to this view.
-
-The :guilabel:`Synopsis` column of the outline view takes its information from a specially
-formatted comment. See :ref:`a_fmt_comm`.

+Project Views
+*************
+
+This chapter covers in more detail the different project views available in novelWriter.
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_project_tree_detailed.png
+
+   The Project Tree as it appears when loading a sample project.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_tree:
+
+The Project Tree
+================
+
+The main window contains a project tree in the left-most panel. It shows the entire structure of
+the project, and has four columns.
+
+**Column 1**
+   The first column shows the icon and label of each folder, document, or note in your project. The
+   label is not the same as the title you set inside the document. However, the document's label
+   will appear in the header above the document text itself so you know where in the project an
+   open document belongs. The icon is selected based on the type of item, and for novel documents,
+   the level of the first header in the document text.
+
+**Column 2**
+   The second column shows the word count of the document, or the sum of words of the child items
+   for folders and documents with sub-documents. If the counts seem incorrect, they can be updated
+   by rebuilding the :term:`project index` from the :guilabel:`Tools` menu, or by pressing
+   :kbd:`F9`.
+
+**Column 3**
+   The third column indicates whether the document is considered active or inactive in the project.
+   You can use this flag to indicate that a document is still in the project, but should not be
+   considered an active part of it. When you run the :guilabel:`Build Manuscript` tool, you can
+   include or exclude documents based on this flag. You can change this value from the
+   :term:`context menu`.
+
+**Column 4**
+   The fourth column shows the user-defined status or importance labels you've assigned to each
+   project item. See :ref:`a_ui_tree_status` for more details on how to uses these labels. You can
+   change these labels from the :term:`context menu`.
+
+Right-clicking an item in the project tree will open a context menu under the cursor, displaying
+a selection of actions that can be performed on the selected item.
+
+At the top of the tree, you will find a set of buttons.
+
+* The first button is a quick links button that will show you a dropdown menu of all the
+  :term:`root folders<root folder>` in your project. Selecting one will move to that position in
+  the tree. You can also activate this menu by pressing :kbd:`Ctrl+L`.
+* The next two buttons can be used to move items up and down in the project tree. This is the only
+  way to move root folders.
+* The next button opens a dropdown menu for adding new items to the tree. This includes root
+  folders. You can also activate this dropdown menu by pressing :kbd:`Ctrl+N`.
+* The last button is a menu of further actions you can apply to the project tree.
+
+Below the project tree you will find a small details panel showing the full information of the
+currently selected item. This panel also includes the latest paragraph and character counts in
+addition to the word count.
+
+.. tip::
+   If you want to set the label of a document to be the same as a header within it, you can
+   right-click a header in the document when it is open in the editor and select
+   :guilabel:`Set as Document Name` from the context menu.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_tree_split_merge:
+
+Splitting and Merging Documents
+-------------------------------
+
+Under the :guilabel:`Transform` submenu in the context menu of an item in the project tree, you
+will find several options on how to change a document or folder. This includes changing between
+document and note, but also splitting them into multiple documents, or merging child items into a
+single document.
+
+
+Splitting Documents
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_project_split_tool.png
+
+   The :guilabel:`Split Document` dialog.
+
+The :guilabel:`Split Document by Header` option will open a dialog that allows you to split the
+selected document into multiple new documents based on the headings it contains. You can select at
+which heading level the split is to be performed from the dropdown box. The list box will preview
+which headings will be split into new documents.
+
+You are given the option to create a folder for these new documents, and whether or not to create a
+hierarchy of documents. That is, put sections under scenes, and scenes under chapters.
+
+The source document *is not* deleted in the process, but you have the option to let the tool move
+the source document to the :guilabel:`Trash` folder.
+
+
+Merging Documents
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_project_merge_tool.png
+
+   The :guilabel:`Merge Documents` dialog.
+
+You have two options for merging documents that are child elements of another document. You can
+either :guilabel:`Merge Child Items into Self` and :guilabel:`Merge Child Items into New`. The
+first option will pull all content of child items and merge them into the parent document, while
+the second option will create a new document in the process.
+
+When merging documents in a folder, you only have the latter process is possible, so only the
+choice :guilabel:`Merge Documents in Folder` is available.
+
+In either case, the :guilabel:`Merge Documents` dialog will let you exclude documents you don't
+want to include, and it also lets you reorder them if you wish.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_tree_status:
+
+Document Importance and Status
+------------------------------
+
+Each document or folder in your project can have either a "Status" or "Importance" flag set. These
+are flags that you control and define yourself. novelWriter doesn't do anything with them at all.
+To modify the labels, go to their respective tabs in :guilabel:`Project Settings`.
+
+The "Status" flag is intended to tag a :term:`novel document<novel documents>` as for instance a
+draft or as completed, and the "Importance" flag is intended to tag character notes, or other
+:term:`project notes`, as for instance a main, major, or minor character or story element.
+
+Whether a document uses a "Status" or "Importance" flag depends on which :term:`root folder` it
+lives in. If it's in a :guilabel:`Novel` folder, it uses the "Status" flag, otherwise it uses an
+"Importance" flag. Some folders, like :guilabel:`Trash` and :guilabel:`Archive` allow both.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_tree_dnd:
+
+Project Tree Drag & Drop
+------------------------
+
+The project tree allows drag & drop to a certain extent to allow you to reorder your documents and
+folders. Moving a document in the project tree will affect the text's position when you assemble
+your manuscript in the :guilabel:`Manuscript Build` tool.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+   You can now select multiple items in the project tree by holding down the :kbd:`Ctrl` or
+   :kbd:`Shift` key while selecting items.
+
+You can drag and drop documents and regular folders, but not root folders. If you select multiple
+items, they can only be dragged and dropped if they are siblings. That is, they have the same
+parent item in the project. This is due to the way drag and drop is implemented in the user
+interface framework novelWriter is built upon.
+
+Documents and their folders can be rearranged freely within their root folders. If you move a Novel
+document out of a Novel folder, it will be converted to a project note. Notes can be moved freely
+between all root folders, but keep in mind that if you move a note into a :guilabel:`Novel` root
+folder, its "Importance" setting will be switched with a "Status" setting. See
+:ref:`a_ui_tree_status`. The old value will not be overwritten though, and should be restored if
+you move it back at some point.
+
+Root folders in the project tree cannot be dragged and dropped at all. If you want to reorder them,
+you can move them up or down with respect to each other from the arrow buttons at the top of the
+project tree, or by pressing :kbd:`Ctrl+Shift+Up` or :kbd:`Ctrl+Shift+Down` when they are selected.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_tree_novel:
+
+The Novel Tree
+==============
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_novel_tree_view.png
+
+   A screenshot of the Novel Tree View.
+
+An alternative way to view the project structure is the novel tree. You can switch to this view by
+selecting the :guilabel:`Novel Tree View` button in the sidebar. This view is a simplified version
+of the view in the :guilabel:`Outline View`. It is convenient when you want to browse the structure
+of the story itself rather than the document files.
+
+.. note::
+   You cannot reorganise the entries in the novel tree, or add any new documents, as that would
+   imply restructuring the content of the document files themselves. Any such editing must be done
+   in the project tree. However, you can add new headings to existing documents, or change
+   references, which will be updated in this view when the document is saved.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_outline:
+
+Project Outline View
+====================
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_outline_view.png
+
+   A screenshot of the Novel Outline View.
+
+The project's :guilabel:`Outline View` is available as another view option from the sidebar. The
+outline provides an overview of the novel structure, displaying a tree hierarchy of the elements of
+the novel, that is, the level 1 to 4 headings representing partitions, chapters, scenes and
+sections.
+
+The document containing the heading can also be displayed as a separate column, as well as the line
+number where the heading is defined. Double-clicking an entry will open the corresponding document
+in the editor and switch to :guilabel:`Project Tree View` mode.
+
+You can select which novel folder to display from the dropdown menu. You can optionally also choose
+to show a combination of all novel folders.
+
+.. note::
+   Since the internal structure of the novel does not depend directly on the folder and document
+   structure of the project tree, this view will not necessarily look the same, depending on how
+   you choose to organise your documents. See the :ref:`a_struct` page for more details.
+
+Various meta data and information extracted from :term:`tags<tag>` can be displayed in columns in
+the outline. A default set of such columns is visible, but you can turn on or off more columns from
+the menu button in the toolbar. The order of the columns can also be rearranged by dragging them to
+a different position. You column settings are saved between sessions on a per-project basis.
+
+.. note::
+   The :guilabel:`Title` column cannot be disabled or moved.

+The information viewed in the outline is based on the :term:`project index`. While novelWriter does
+its best to keep the index up to date when contents change, you can always rebuild it manually by
+pressing :kbd:`F9` if something isn't right.
+
+The outline view itself can be regenerated by pressing the refresh button. By default, the content
+is refreshed each time you switch to this view.
+
+The :guilabel:`Synopsis` column of the outline view takes its information from a specially
+formatted comment. See :ref:`a_fmt_comm`.

+*********************
+The Editor and Viewer
+*********************
+
+.. _Compose Key: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key
+
+This chapter covers in more detail how the document editor and viewer panels work.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_edit:
+
+Editing a Document
+==================
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_editor.png
+
+   A screenshot of the Document Editor panel.
+
+To edit a document, double-click it in the project tree, or press the :kbd:`Return` key while
+having it selected. This will open the document in the document editor. The editor uses a
+Markdown-like syntax for some features, and a novelWriter-specific syntax for others. The syntax
+format is described in the :ref:`a_fmt` chapter.
+
+The editor has a maximise button (toggles the :guilabel:`Focus Mode`) and a close button in the
+top--right corner. On the top--left side you will find a tools button that opens a toolbar with a
+few buttons for applying text formatting, and a search button to open the search dialog.
+
+Both the document editor and viewer will show the label of the currently open document in the
+header at the top of the edit or view panel. Optionally, the full project path to the document can
+be shown. This can be set in :guilabel:`Preferences`.
+
+.. tip::
+   Clicking on the document title bar will select the document in the project tree and thus reveal
+   its location there, making it easier to find in a large project.
+
+Any :term:`references<reference>` in the editor can be opened in the viewer by moving the cursor to
+the label and pressing :kbd:`Ctrl+Return`. You can also control-click them with your mouse.
+
+
+Editor Auto-Completer
+---------------------
+
+If you type the character ``@`` on a new line, a context menu will appear showing the different
+available keywords. The list will shorten as you type. Once a keyword command has been selected or
+typed, the editor may suggest further content based on your project content. See
+:ref:`a_references_completer` for more details.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+   The auto-completer feature was added.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_view:
+
+Viewing a Document
+==================
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_viewer.png
+
+   A screenshot of the Document Viewer panel.
+
+Any document in the project tree can also be viewed in parallel in a right hand side document
+viewer. To view a document, press :kbd:`Ctrl+R`, or select :guilabel:`View Document` in the menu or
+context menu. If you have a middle mouse button, middle-clicking on the document will also open it
+in the viewer.
+
+The document viewed does not have to be the same document as the one currently being edited.
+However, If you *are* viewing the same document, pressing :kbd:`Ctrl+R` again will update the
+document with your latest changes. You can also press the reload button in the top--right corner of
+the viewer panel, next to the close button, to achieve the same thing.
+
+In the viewer :term:`references<reference>` become clickable links. Clicking them will replace the
+content of the viewer with the content of the document the reference points to.
+
+The document viewer keeps a history of viewed documents, which you can navigate with the arrow
+buttons in the top--left corner of the viewer. If your mouse has backward and forward navigation
+buttons, these can be used as well. They work just like the backward and forward features in a
+browser.
+
+At the bottom of the view panel there is a :guilabel:`References` panel. (If it is hidden, click
+the button on the left side of the footer area to reveal it.) This panel contains a References tab
+with links to all documents referring back to the one you're currently viewing, if any has been
+defined. If you have created root folders and tags for various story elements like characters and
+plot points, these will appear as additional tabs in this panel.
+
+.. note::
+   The :guilabel:`References` panel relies on an up-to-date :term:`index<project index>` of the
+   project. The index is maintained automatically. However, if anything is missing, or seems wrong,
+   the index can always be rebuilt by selecting :guilabel:`Rebuild Index` from the
+   :guilabel:`Tools` menu, or by pressing :kbd:`F9`.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+   The reference panel was redesigned and the additional tabs added.
+
+
+.. _a_ui_edit_search:
+
+Search & Replace
+================
+
+.. figure:: images/fig_editor_search.png
+
+   A screenshot of the Document Editor search box.
+
+The document editor has a search and replace tool that can be activated with :kbd:`Ctrl+F` for
+search mode or :kbd:`Ctrl+H` for search and replace mode.
+
+Pressing :kbd:`Return` while in the search box will search for the next occurrence of the word, and
+:kbd:`Shift+Return` for the previous. Pressing :kbd:`Return` in the replace box, will replace the
+highlighted text and move to the next result.
+
+There are a number of settings for the search tool available as toggle switches above the search
+box. They allow you to search for, in order: matched case only, whole word results only, search
+using regular expressions, loop search when reaching the end of the document, and move to the next
+document when reaching the end. There is also a switch that will try to match the case of the word
+when the replacement is made. That is, it will try to keep the word upper, lower, or capitalised to
+match the word being replaced.
+
+The regular expression search is somewhat dependant on which version of Qt your system has. If you
+have Qt 5.13 or higher, there is better support for Unicode symbols in the search.
+
+.. seealso::
+   For more information on the capabilities of the Regular Expression option, see the Qt
+   documentation for the `QRegularExpression <https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qregularexpression.html>`_
+   class.

+
+Auto-Replace as You Type
+========================
+
+A few auto-replace features are supported by the editor. You can control every aspect of the
+auto-replace feature from :guilabel:`Preferences`. You can also disable this feature entirely if
+you wish.
+
+.. tip::
+   If you don't like auto-replacement, all symbols inserted by this feature are also available in
+   the :guilabel:`Insert` menu, and via :ref:`a_kb_ins`. You may also be using a `Compose Key`_
+   setup, which means you may not need the auto-replace feature at all.
+
+The editor is able to replace two and three hyphens with short and long dashes, triple points with
+ellipsis, and replace straight single and double quotes with user-defined quote symbols. It will
+also try to determine whether to use the opening or closing symbol, although this feature isn't
+always accurate. Especially distinguishing between closing single quote and apostrophe can be
+tricky for languages that use the same symbol for these, like English does.
+
+.. tip::
+   If the auto-replace feature changes a symbol when you did not want it to change, pressing
+   :kbd:`Ctrl+Z` once after the auto-replacement will undo it without undoing the character
+   you typed before it.
