Curvenote makes it easy to add reference links to the content throughout your project. Specialized internal references are included for articles, notebooks, sections, figures, and equations. Using either the command menu options or the direct keyboard shortcuts a list will appear of your available content to select and reference. When you hover over a reference, a preview of that content will appear.
Referencing Commands¶
You can use either the command menu or keyboard shortcuts to reference content within your text.
Command Menu¶
When using the command menu / you will need to first search the command menu options for the reference style you want, then click or hit enter to select that option. From there, you can either scroll through or continue typing to search for the content you want to reference.

Keyboard Shortcuts¶

Sections¶
You can create sections within your articles and notebooks by using Markdown heading formatting. Learn more about creating headings ➡️ Command Menu & Shortcuts, Markdown Accelerated Editing
Once headings have been been created, you can update their size and add numbering by highlighting the full text of the heading. A toolbar will appear below the text. You can adjust the level of your heading in the drop down menu. You can Toggle Numbering by clicking on the number symbol.
