Other types show "Cannot preview this file type" and offer to open them with an external program.
How to Preview
- Click a non-Markdown file in the file tree and its preview opens in the main area.
.canvaswhiteboard files are not taken over by the preview — they open the whiteboard editor directly (see 08-Advanced-Features/03-Whiteboard-Canvas).- Images embedded in a note via
![[image.png]]are shown inline in the body (see 03-Knowledge-Management/02-Embedded-Content).
Image Preview
- Scroll to zoom: the zoom ratio is bounded to 10% – 500%
- Zoom readout: the current percentage is shown in the top-right corner
- Reset zoom: back to 100% in one click
- Back: the "◀ Back" button in the top-left closes the preview
- Transparent backgrounds are supported (PNG / WebP / SVG)
Video Preview
Uses the built-in player (<video>):
- Play / pause, seek, volume control
- Supports codecs the browser supports natively; unsupported codecs report a load failure
Audio Preview
Uses the built-in player (<audio>): play / pause and seek control.
PDF Preview
Loads PDFs inline, with direct page navigation and zoom. Useful for consulting reference material next to your notes.
Note
Where images are stored and how they are named is configurable in 07-Settings/06-Image-Settings.
