How can we better use the functions of Notepad?

How To

I found that in the latest version 0.41, there is a new function called Notepad on the composer interface.

But I don’t know how to use it better.

In other words, I don’t know what its function is. Is there anyone who can provide a simple example of best practice?

I would also love to know more about notepads. It would be great to have a sense for when to use a notepad.

I just used it for the first time to make a simple collection of related files. This seems to save time in the event I need to start a new chat or composer, and don’t want to bother re-searching/adding all the files. Beyond that, I’m not sure.

Is “composer” now called cmd + k in the newest version/docs and you can no longer get it into the AI pane?

These features look awesome but I don’t see them in Version: 0.42.5

shortcut key is Ctrl+i , or ctrl shift + i

Ah, thank you. I swear cmd + d to get it into the AI pane wasn’t working yesterday, but it’s working today.

Feedback for the team: I have done ~3000 chat messages over a few months and didn’t know composer existed :smile:. Why isn’t composer functionality “part of” chat as features/settings. For example why does chat not have checkpoint functionality?

Yes, actually composer is a very powerful function. But for beginners, there is no prompt for the composer function at all. Therefore, they may not know that this function exists. So I think composer should be displayed by default on the side panel or be guided for use in a prominent position.
