How do I preview a row without leaving the view?

Click the row. The note opens in a peek beside the view, and the list stays where it was.

Checked against Terra 0.1.0
  1. In a database view, click a row or card. The note opens in a peek on the right.
  2. Read or edit the note there.
  3. To move the peek, click Peek position in its header and choose Dock left, Dock right, Center or Bottom sheet. You can also drag the header.
  4. Press Esc to close it.

Shortcut: Esc closes the peek.

Other ways

  • Peek position › Open in split moves the note into a pane of its own.
  • Maximize pane in the peek's header opens the note as a tab that fills the window.

Good to know

  • Each view chooses how rows open, under View preferences › Opening. Set Open notes to Peek, Pane, Full or Properties. With Peek, Peek position sets the side it opens on.
  • Center and Bottom sheet dim the view. Click outside the peek to close it.
  • References rows open their properties. Links rows open their page beside the view. A task opens in the task editor.
