Getting around Reproof

Navigating the Reproof UI

Reproof keeps your documents front-and-center, and you can keep your hands on the keyboard all the time, or navigate with your mouse—whichever you prefer.

You can see as much or as little of Reproof as you want. There’s always a document in the middle of your screen, with a list of documents in the left sidebar, tools like a document outline and find/replace in the right sidebar, and clippings underneath.

To open or close the sidebars, you can either:

Swipe with two fingers to open or close each sidebar (you can disable this in settings, if you want)
Click the buttons in the top corners of a document
Press Option+[ to open or close the left sidebar and Option+] to open or close the right sidebar

To open or close the clippings pane, click the caret on the bottom of your document or press Cmd+j to open and close the pane.

Reproof Command Palette

The Command Palette is where you’ll find everything else. Open it by clicking the Reproof icon in the top left corner of a document or the sidebar, or press Cmd+k anytime.

Click a recent document to open it. Start typing to filter through your docs and open them from your keyboard. Or click the lower tabs to customize Reproof’s settings, check your writing stats, and see Reproof’s latest features or send in feedback.

Finding documents in Reproof

Everything you've written, a keystroke away.

Reproof keeps every document tucked away in the left sidebar. Click to switch between documents, or hide the sidebar to focus and write. The sidebar lists documents in reverse chronological order, sorted by when they were most recently edited, with pinned documents kept at the top of the list. You can add documents to folders by dragging-and-dropping them, or by clicking the menu option on a document and choosing to move it to a folder. You can filter your sidebar as well to show only docs containing a specific word, by clicking the filter button in the center of the bottom of the left sidebar. Filters search through both document titles and text. And, once you've typed a filter, you can navigate the sidebar with your arrow and open a document by pressing Enter. Or, you can click the Reproof icon or press Cmd+k anytime to open the Reproof command palette—and just start typing to search through your documents, press arrow keys to navigate between documents, and press enter to open the document you want. That's the fastest way to jump between documents in Reproof. And, as a bonus, if you search for something that's not in your library, you can create a document or clipping directly from the command palette, then jump in and start editing it.
